Before building a new house on earth, in order to live happily in it, the owner and the hostess bury the head of a rooster in the ground, better than a real one. But if you do not have such an opportunity, make a rooster's head from plasticine or mold from wax, decorate with feathers. This ritual symbolizes the sacrifice to the gods guarding the dwelling. The rite is performed secretly and late at night.
Before building or laying the foundation, wool and birch bark are buried in the ground at the front corner - for luck in the trade in horses, goats and cows. After all, at the time of the emergence of these rites, the richest merchant traded in cattle and timber. You can bury a few small coins or grains so that money and bread are not transferred to the new house. Given the transformation monetary units burying together with Russian coins of the American non-new dollar is allowed. Tradition interprets that those who acted in this way acquired an unchangeable silver ruble, and what if you get an unchangeable dollar? A piece of bread, a pinch of salt, a particle of honey are placed at the base of the house.
At the place chosen for housing, several handfuls of rye are poured for one or two days. If the grains have remained untouched throughout the whole time - this place will bring good luck, if not - the place is unlucky - you need to leave it. Where classics and antiquity are forgotten pagan rite was replaced by Christian consecration of the first corners of the log house or the corners of the foundation. Corners represent the boundaries of a room. A warm corner is synonymous with native shelter. Cut a corner for yourself - build a hut. The threshold is the boundary separating the home from the outside world or the violent side.
Behind the threshold, enclosed by corners, a person finds himself under the protection of a household deity - a hearth or, more simply, fire, whose cult of veneration goes back to the worship of Perun, the god of thunder.
The threshold, along with crossroads and borders, is considered the most mystical place in Slavic mythology. This is the place where two roads converge - one leading to the house, the other leading away from the house. This is a clash of two realities of entry and exit, one is patronized by one force - the hearth - the other by the force of violent winds. And the place where these forces do not act is the threshold - the exclusion zone, the place of non-action. It is there that, according to popular beliefs, the evil spirit lives. Therefore, magical rites are pronounced on the thresholds, and many signs are associated with the thresholds. Illegitimate dead children were buried under the threshold so that the priest, entering the house, would sanctify the soul of the baby with his presence.
They do not greet through the threshold, do not say goodbye, do not sit down, so as not to anger the household god and so that evil forces do not attack. Merchants should not stand on the threshold, so as not to drive away buyers. At dusk, they don’t bring garbage through the threshold after a departed friend, so he may no longer come to you. But if the enemy left - anything - under the threshold after him and spit and an angry word can be said - the threshold will endure everything. Under the threshold of the house, envious people usually pour needles - so that there is no health, salt - for quarrels and torn money for lack of money. So check what you have there under the threshold!

Signs and home protection How to protect your home from witchcraft First of all, you need to find out if there is an evil spirit in your home. To do this, take the consecrated salt, put it for 15–20 minutes on a heated frying pan on a low heat. If the apartment is “clean”, the salt will be yellowish in color, and if there are impure ones, then the salt will crackle and turn dark brown or black. In this way, not only determine the presence of evil spirits, but also expel it. Every apartment, every house starts from the threshold. It is through the threshold that joy comes to us, and grief and misfortune also peep through the threshold. That is why you can often see that a horseshoe hangs over the threshold for good luck, then bunches of nettles and thistles, garlic and onions from evil spirits. The threshold fences us off from seven troubles, from someone else's evil eye. It is believed among the people that it is impossible to stand on the threshold, to say goodbye to departing guests. Nothing is ever given through the threshold. Food served through the threshold is a disease, and if it is clothes, then the body will be tormented by dryness and aches. An amulet against the evil eye is a rowan branch or a spruce paw attached above the front door. If there are frequent quarrels in the house, get a cactus, but do not forget that you will soon have to part with it! This plant collects negative energy, even harmful radiation from TVs and computers. But it stores them, accumulates and soon becomes a very "prickly" harmful member of the family. And if your cactus has bloomed, this is a sign that the bad things in your family relationships have been exhausted and your relationship has a chance to acquire a new quality, like a beautiful flower. Never leave a knife stuck in bread! Such bread cannot be eaten, so as not to bring a quarrel on the family, up to a break in relations. When cleaning in an apartment, never aim towards the entrance - you will take out dirty linen from the hut. An aspen branch hung over the threshold of the front door will not let you into your house energy vampires. Even dry and winter, put in the bedroom, will save you from nightmares. You can wash the floors only when all your household members are at home, otherwise you will “wash out” the traces. Do not put knives and forks with the tip up - you will incur anger. Never put bread upside down. This is a very bad omen, a loved one may die untimely. Having dropped a knife, fork or spoon from the table, knock three times with a pen on the table (do not say a word until you do this) - you will protect yourself from an intruder. Do not throw cut hair, nails or teeth that have fallen out anywhere - a sorcerer can use them. Throwing them out the window or burning them is also impossible - you can get sick. Do not distribute your photos to just anyone - through them you can have any impact on you. Also, do not talk about the date and especially the time of your birth, about any personal things. A watch that has been used for a long time also has a very strong connection with its owner, so it is not recommended to part with it, even if it is broken. This connection is so strong that the watch often stops after the death of the owner - it is useless to repair such a watch by conventional methods. Never leave uncut rings, whole bracelets and tied knots on the dead - ghosts arise from this. If you have to return half way home, there will be no way. To somehow avoid this, say hello out loud to your own reflection in the mirror. Do not pick up small coins dropped by someone - warts, diseases and damage are most often reduced to them. Do not touch crutches, sticks, canes, handkerchiefs, gloves and other lost items. Do not give or accept as a gift without a symbolic “payback” scarves and gloves (for parting), watches (for longing), sharp objects (for quarrels with consequences). If there are serious suspicions of induced damage: children get sick in an incomprehensible way, dishes break by themselves and objects fall, food deteriorates prematurely, other inexplicable phenomena occur, dreams bad dreams- Do a general cleaning in the house. look around door jambs and window frames, the entrance mat for stuck needles, buttons and pins, inspect the carpets on the walls, check the fluff in the pillows - burn everything you find. Sprinkle your home with holy water. Evil spirits can also be expelled with the help of incense, fumigating the room with it. The towel on which you blessed Easter cake during the Easter service helps well against spoilage if you wear it on yourself. On Christmas Day, from one in the morning until five in the morning, the sky "opens". At this time, ask the Lord for healing and forgiveness of sins. If your sins are forgiven, then damage will not be terrible. Consecrate poppy (preferably wild) on Maccabeus or on the Savior and shower it on your house. Witches will not pass. It is good to keep birch twigs consecrated on the Trinity in the house. They also help with evil spirits. The presence of spoken things in the apartment can be determined as follows: bring an unburned candle from the church on Good Friday that you kept during the service, light it and walk with it through all the rooms, where the candle crackles - damage. AT Pure Thursday a house or apartment can be fumigated with juniper, wild rosemary or heather. This will also protect and drive out the unclean from your home. Buckthorn branches, consecrated in the church for the Trinity, hung over the doors and windows of your home, will also protect you and your home from evil spirits. On Epiphany, January 19, bless the water in the church and sprinkle it on your yard and apartment or house. This will also protect you from evil spirits. You can knead the batter on the consecrated baptismal water and draw crosses over the front door (outside and inside the apartment) with it. This will also protect you and your home from the tricks of evil, unkind people. On the Annunciation, consecrate the salt, burn it for about fifteen minutes in a pan on a white rag, then use this salt as food for both people and animals (a pinch each). It is good if the consecrated salt will always be in your salt shaker. Crosses drawn (accumulated) outside and inside with a candle from the church that you had in your hands on Maundy Thursday will protect you and your house from the unclean. Chalk protects from evil spirits. No wonder in the old days the walls were whitewashed with chalk, which created a certain protective background. Try it, the unclean don't like chalk. And pasting dwellings with wallpaper creates a favorable environment for them. Cats and dogs feel impure well. The hair on the back of the dog's neck rises, and he begins to bark at the place where the unclean are. And sometimes cats even leave the house. Protect yourself when you leave home. Read the prayer three times: “The cross is above me, the cross is below me, the cross is on the sides, the cross is in front and behind.” Do not step over dead snakes, frogs, snakes lying in your way. Get around them. Otherwise, you will get sick. Do not hang laundry out to dry overnight. It can be damaged. It may even disappear from the linen, and then reappear. Burn the item that appears. Purchased products (especially in the market) should be sprinkled with blessed water or read “Our Father” over them and cross them with a knife. It is good to drive out the unclean visiting the belfry during church holidays. You can listen to services on a tape recorder recorded on a cassette, while reading prayers yourself. Do not give your photos to anyone, this way you will save yourself from many troubles. Wear three aspen sticks under the insoles of your shoes. They will protect you if you accidentally step on damage. Matches are suitable for this purpose. Remove sulfur from them, sprinkle with holy water and put under the insoles. In this way, the monks consecrate the dwelling. In four glasses filled with grain, put four candles, with which they stood overnight in the church on Easter. You need to arrange the glasses with candles as follows: put one glass at the front door on a chair, put the second glass opposite the front door against the wall, the third one on the balcony by the window and the fourth one in front of it in the bedroom by the window to form a cross. Light candles. With a candle, with which they stood all night on Easter, put a cross outside and inside and on the windows. Then wind a piece of cotton wool around three matches and circle the crosses that were applied with a candle with church oil. Sprinkle the apartment with baptismal water, reading the prayer "Our Father". Then go around the dwelling three times, starting from the front door, with a burning candle, reading the prayer "Our Father". If there is incense, fumigate the rooms with burning incense; if not, fumigate with dry wormwood. Matches used to anoint crosses must be burned and buried where people do not walk! If you do not have the opportunity to invite a priest to consecrate the dwelling, do this: sprinkle the dwelling inside with baptismal water, as described above, and do the whole ritual. If fate has ceased to favor you and it seems to you that evil spirits or your enemies are to blame for this, do the following ritual. Hang three peeled small onions in different places in your home: in the kitchen, in the bedroom, in the living room. It must be hung in a special way. Pierce each onion with a thick needle and red thread and tie the thread in a loop around the bulb. The bulbs must hang for 7 nights. Then they are removed and each one is placed on a sheet of clean paper, heavily salted and burned on a bright fire. Evil spells will be broken. If devils, demons and semi-demons mock you at night, witches and sorcerers visit you, then, firstly, invite a priest to bless your house, and secondly, buy new knives (15–20 cm long) and into each window on the right, in place the knife on the top of the frame so that the blade is perpendicular to the frame and, as it were, divides the window in half. On the front door, place two knives perpendicular to the loot so that the blades divide the doorway into four parts. Knives must stand constantly. Also put a knife in each air vent if you live in a high-rise building. In your house, you need to put a knife with the blade up on the pipe so that it divides the pipe diagonally. You can put needles instead of knives, but they can only detain witches and sorcerers, and demons pass through such protection. On the front door, instead of knives, scissors can be used, which are moved apart and placed in the upper right corner perpendicular to the door hatch on the side where the door opens, so that the open scissor blades divide the door diagonally. If you have protection on the windows, and the unclean are trying to get to you, you will hear a blow to the glass, as if a piece of jelly was thrown into the window. A broom is an invariable attribute in every home. Try not to step over it or step on it, as you may experience convulsions. However, a broom is also a protection from the unclean. To avoid the penetration of evil spirits into your home, place it near the front door with the handle down. Then witches and sorcerers will bypass your house on the tenth road. It happens that you are given flowers that have been in the cemetery all night. If you bring such a gift home, you will suffocate, lose consciousness, feel a headache and weakness. If this happens, douse the flowers with gasoline, after taking them out of the house, burn them, drink the blessed water and read the Our Father. Strengthens health and protects against spoilage untouched water, collected before sunrise on Thursday (drink it). You should not sleep with open windows from 12 to 3 am. At this time, the impure ones are aggressive. Or drive four needles into the windows in the corners, pull the thread crosswise. Going to bed, cross yourself three times, pillows and bed and read the prayer "Alive in help." It happens that when they meet you, they pat you on the shoulder, shake your hand, you begin to outflow of energy, and the person who does this immediately blossoms. Sometimes diseases are also transmitted in this way. If you have a puddle of water near the threshold (usually soapy, water is added to it, in which the deceased was washed), do not step over and do not enter into it. Otherwise, you will get damaged. Take a rag, soak this water, trying not to take it with your hands, but with the help of some kind of stick. Take this rag outside, douse it with gasoline or kerosene and burn it with a prayer, while making sure that the smoke does not come at you. If a doorhandle smeared with something (they use the soap that was used to wash the deceased), then take the paper, light it and cross-burn this handle with fire. Then dry the pen with clean paper that you burn or bury. If you find coins, salt, earth, millet, seed husks, etc., in front of the threshold of your house or apartment, go around it clockwise, cross it three times, collect it, for example, on a newspaper (but not with your hand), take it away from home and light it, reading "Our Father", then say: "Where it came from - go there, whoever created it - take it." If this is thrown to you, for example, by close neighbors, their face will be red, as if burned. If a nail or needle sticks out of your door, wrap it in a rag and take it outside the house, burn it and bury it. If you are given gifts, do not take them in your hands, let them put them somewhere. When the guests leave, you sprinkle each gift with consecrated water. If you hear after that the smell of burning wool, it means that they tried to drive demons inside you. You can protect yourself well from damage as follows: on Thursday morning, standing up, read the prayer “Our Father”, mentally imagining that a wall of fire is rising around you clockwise to the sky. The entrance mat in front of the door serves as an ideal tool for inducing damage. They can pour water on it, in which the deceased was washed, they can pour earth from the grave, etc. All family members will pass through such a rug and everyone will receive their portion of damage. Therefore, it is better not to put rugs at the entrance doors. Plakun-grass (looseberry), collected before sunrise on Ivan Kupala, is afraid of witches and sorcerers. Sprinkle it in front of your doorstep. If a person lives in his own house In addition to the methods of protection that I suggested above, you can do the following in your house. On four sheets of paper you need to write the prayer "Alive in help." Take four vials with a cork and put a prayer in each vial. Then count how many steps along the width of your estate (from the fence of one neighbor to the fence of another), divide it in half and bury a bottle of prayer from the side of your courtyard. Do the same from the side of the garden: count how many steps across the width of your garden (from one neighbor to another), and divide in half - in this place, too, bury a vial with the prayer "Alive in help." Then divide the length of your estate in half on one side and on the other to make a cross. In the garden, in the place where you buried the prayer vial, drive a peg in from above (so that the vial remains in its place if you dig up the garden in the fall). Consecrate the estate with Epiphany water and sprinkle with holy poppy. Now, even if some nasty slander is thrown into your yard, there will be no harm to you. It is desirable that everything that is thrown up should be set on fire. You need to take only with the help of a scoop and a broom, do not touch anything with your hands. Everything that remains after burning must be buried in the ground where people do not walk. When damage is brought to the house, it begins to creak and crack. To remove damage in the four corners of the house near the foundation, dig small holes 20-25 cm deep and put consecrated salt and plakun-grass in them, and draw crosses on four walls with a candle taken in the church on Good Friday. So that you have a good harvest, before sunrise, place two knives diagonally in the garden so that the blades are directed towards each other, and the knives themselves are in the ground up to the handle. No evil eyes can damage your garden. You can fence the garden with aspen pegs, driving them into the ground clockwise. If you see an unfamiliar footprint in the garden, drive a nail into it. What to do if a brownie appears in a dwelling A brownie lives in every house and in every apartment. It is believed that the brownie is the cousin of the devil. And yet it is impossible to expel him, since he is an attribute of our Everyday life, even to some extent a protector of the hearth. At the same time, brownies and devils in the same apartment, as a rule, do not get along. If things begin to randomly move around your apartment or dishes in cabinets break, and sometimes at night you hear some kind of noise, it means that the brownie is fighting with evil spirits. And here you can help him, thereby making life easier for yourself: Do not leave salt, pepper, garlic, onions and knives on the table or on the windowsills overnight. Hide them away in closets. The brownie can't stand them. To appease him, on the night of February 10, leave a glass of wine, a slice of bread, a piece of lard and something sweet on the table. If the brownie accepts your treat, then in the morning you will notice traces of his feast, and you will feel how the atmosphere in the house will change. It happens that the brownie crushes a person on the bed. You can feel his presence right on your face. So that he does not bother you, put thyme in your pillow. The prayer “Our Father” can also help, during the reading of which it is necessary to baptize not only yourself, but also the brownie. Sometimes a brownie during a visit seeks to tell you something. Try to ask him a question: "For worse or for better?" Hear in response: “Hu ...”, which means that he warns you of some kind of misfortune. If it is silent, then you will be all right. Among the brownies there are also evil ones who do more harm than good. It's best to get rid of them. To do this, invite a priest to bless your home three times.

Therefore, magical rites are pronounced on the thresholds, and many signs are associated with the thresholds.
