A very pressing question that is often heard from watch enthusiasts. What to do if you wear several watch models and some of them have to wait for their turn for some time? Should I keep turning them on? Give it a rest? The answers to these questions are usually contradictory. Some say that even if we don't wear our watches, we still need to keep them in working order to prevent the lubricants from drying out and increase the lifespan of the movement. Others believe that watches that are not in use should be “resting.” They argue this as follows: in a non-working mechanism, the teeth are not subject to intense wear, which means the service life of such a caliber will be longer. Let's finally shed light on this issue and figure out how to maximize the life of the mechanical copies of our precious collections. But before we delve into the technical details, let's go over the theory a little.
Why did the wristwatch stop?
It is worth remembering that a watch, like any mechanism, can stop for technical reasons. For example, the battery may have run out, the mechanism may have stopped winding, the dial may be damaged, etc. If this is not the case, then there is some mysticism involved. Other reasons why the clock has stopped:
- They are trying to influence a person using black magic
- Possible presence of psychological disorders in the owner
- Presence of unresolved problems
- Lack of movement in life
- Disease
- Threat to human life
In general, all the reasons indicate that the owner of a stopped watch needs to reconsider his rhythm of life and pay attention to his health.
Interesting! The watch on the left hand is symbolized with the past, and on the right with the future. Therefore, esotericists recommend wearing them on your right hand in order to move forward. Often, those who wear such an accessory as a watch on their left hand experience apathy.
Signs and superstitions associated with watches
Signs about watches can be taken in different ways: seriously, with distrust or even laughing, but it cannot be denied that our ancestors accumulated this wisdom for years to pass on to their descendants. Even a skeptical person should not be dismissive of signs. It is better to analyze this or that incident and mentally prepare for future events.
A wristwatch breaks and stops running - this means delays and problems both at work and in love affairs. According to popular wisdom, just as time has stopped on the dial, so it will slow down in the life of the owner. You can correct the situation by taking your favorite accessory to a repair shop to have your watch repaired.
In addition, the time at which the clock stopped ticking can tell about upcoming events:
- Broken during the day - to difficulties at work.
- At night - problems on the love front, secrets and betrayals of a partner.
If the arrows stop moving right before the owner’s eyes, this indicates that the owner too often forgets about the promises he made and the appointments he made, which will adversely affect business and finances.
You shouldn’t store broken walkers, but you shouldn’t throw the accessory in the trash either. It is necessary to take the watch to a technician for repair or to dispose of it properly.
If the watch is constantly late, this is a signal that the owner is wasting time and does not know how to properly distribute energy. In other words, the item warns that the work started is taking too long, and the owner is missing out on new opportunities, which in the future will cause disappointment and bitter regrets.
If a wristwatch goes faster, according to signs, this means that the owner is too preoccupied with future affairs and problems. You should relax, take time for spiritual harmony, gain strength and not get ahead of yourself. If the wall-mounted walkers are in a hurry, this portends an imminent journey or a trip to distant countries.
A clock that suddenly starts going backwards is considered an open door to the past. Having noticed this, you should be prepared for the owner to be disturbed by old, long-forgotten matters or a person who has not made himself known for a long time. You need to take the situation calmly and try to resolve the issue peacefully.
A broken or broken watch is a serious sign sent by the Universe to warn the owner about upcoming events. As a rule, the mechanism most often breaks down on wall clocks, but wristwatches can also suddenly become unusable. Folk signs say the following about broken and broken watches:
- If they fell and remained intact, but do not show the time, stagnation will occur in the owner’s life, work and love affairs will develop slowly.
- If an old or sick person lives in the house, then broken walkers portend death.
- The glass on the dial is cracked - a sign of change.
- The glass shattered into pieces - to discord in the family, divorce.
- If the mechanism of an ancient watch breaks, the owner will face obstacles in all his endeavors.
Is it possible to give
Despite the fact that a watch seems like a good and useful gift, you should not give or accept this accessory as a gift. It is believed that the donated mechanism will count down the time allocated for communication between the owner and the donor. If you cannot avoid a gift, you need to give any coin in return - this way you can deceive fate, as if buying a present.
Folk signs about donated watches:
- If an item received as a gift breaks or breaks, the relationship with the giver will break.
- Giving a watch for a wedding means divorce.
Why lose
Losing a watch is a sure sign that life has surprises in store for its owner. According to beliefs, if something like this happens, a person needs to let go of the past and start living in the future. The meaning of signs about the loss of an accessory may vary depending on where the owner parted with his favorite item:
- On the street - signs on this matter say that it is worth reconsidering your life goals and views. Perhaps the owner is spending time and energy in the wrong direction.
- At work - to frustration and delayed wages.
- In someone else's house - to gossip and quarrels with friends.
- A watch stolen means the loss of a faithful friend.
If you lose your watch, don’t be upset - a bad omen can be neutralized by buying a new mechanism.
Signs about the find
According to ancient superstitions, whoever finds a working watch will have great luck and happiness. However, the meaning of the sign may change depending on the type of product:
- finding a men's watch - to new acquaintances;
- for women - to pleasant surprises and good news;
- old watch - the finder will encounter long-forgotten friends or problems;
- new ones - good luck and cash receipts await the person;
- faulty or broken - a sign that the finder is wasting his time.
Superstitions when buying
Popular superstitions say that a watch cannot be given as a gift - you must buy the accessory yourself. A correctly selected watch can become a faithful talisman and change the owner’s life for the better. When purchasing, representatives of different sexes should pay special attention to the shape of the product:
- Girls are recommended to purchase an oval or round shaped accessory, otherwise the lady will have to do masculine, rough work throughout her life.
- For men, a square or rectangular option is suitable. Such a product will ensure success in work and any endeavors, and will help you feel more confident and stronger.
If a person accidentally left his favorite watch at a party, folk signs say that in the near future one should be wary of breaking off relations with those people. It is possible that the initiator will be the receiving party, who will change their opinion about the guest or begin to spread gossip and rumors. Forgetting your watch at home is a waste of valuable time.
Why did the wall clock stop?
Wall clocks are a symbol of the hearth, and if they stop moving forward for no apparent reason, then this is alarming. What signs from above can be given if the clock in the house stops:
- There were ill-wishers in the room
- Soon, one of the residents of the house, maybe even a pet, will become seriously ill or even worse, die
- Something bad could happen in the house
- Financial difficulties will come for the owners of the house
- A quick scandal in the house
Interesting! If the hands of the clock on the wall are in the house of a lonely person, then this is a hint that his life is standing still, he needs to move forward and look for a life partner.
What should you pay attention to if the clock hands have stopped?
In such an unpleasant situation, you should not panic; you need to pay attention to some subtleties. They will help you when deciphering predictions.
Smash on the wall
If wall mechanisms break, many people immediately become wary. Indeed, unlike wrist ones, this type rarely comes into contact with external objects. Therefore, if the counters had to break by accident, then the omen can be interpreted as a truly true omen or a sign from above, speaking of the following events:
- The sign predicts a serious illness of one of the family members. It may be incurable;
- If a clock fell from the wall and broke, and there are drivers in the family, you should give up the vehicle as soon as possible. There is a high risk of getting into an accident with a serious or fatal outcome;
- There may be cracks and misunderstandings with your partner in family life, and there is a high risk of divorce.
If the chronometer fell from the wall by accident, and a small crack or chip formed during the fall, it is recommended to reconsider your basic life priorities and principles. A wall clock can also warn that it is important to become a better version of yourself and engage in development; perhaps the owner has degenerated recently for various reasons.
Also, if they fell from the wall and broke, it is important to reconsider your attitude towards life. Perhaps the owner is not living his destiny, without knowing it. The sign advises to carry out an analysis and draw appropriate conclusions, turning them into reality.
Why did the clock stop completely, or did it move over time?
It happens that the clock stopped, and after a while it started again. What does this mean:
- If the arrows began to move on their own after a few minutes, then ill-wishers did not manage to harm you
- If after a long period of time, then they urgently need to be neutralized, since such watches foretell the death of loved ones
- If the mechanism began to move again after sprinkling them with holy water or after they were dedicated by the priest, then trouble was avoided
Interesting! If the mechanism stops working when the two hands are at the same level, then this is a sign of good changes.
Why you can't wear a watch that has stopped
It happens that the watch has stopped, but a person still wears it as an accessory. This is absolutely impossible to do. Such watches carry bad energy, even if they started only because the batteries were dead. It is also considered a bad omen to wear a watch with a cracked glass or torn strap.
Not only should you not wear a watch whose hands do not move, but you should also not store it in the house. According to psychics, broken things attract bad energy. To avoid troubles, it is better to either repair it immediately or throw it away.
Interesting! They also say that you can’t wear someone else’s watch, it’s the same as transferring the fate of this person and all his negativity onto yourself.
There are situations when a watch becomes an inheritance and becomes a family heirloom. You can wear them only if they passed to you during the lifetime of a relative. And if they came to you after death, and are not yet working, then under no circumstances should you wear them.
What to do with a broken watch
If a broken watch can no longer be repaired, it is best to wrap it in cloth or paper and throw it away. You need to get rid of them even if they are old and expensive. Psychics even advise disassembling the watch into its mechanisms and throwing it away separately.
There is no point in throwing away antiques; you can try to find a buyer for them. If a watch has been standing for a very long time (more than 12 lunar cycles), then it is already considered an ordinary piece of furniture without its magical meaning.
A watch is an important attribute in the life of any person. Since ancient times, their course has been associated with the course of life, the flow of energy, and fate. If something happens to the watch, then there is reason to wonder why it happened.
A wristwatch is a necessary item for many to constantly monitor time, and modern watches also allow you to make calls and read messages. Faithfully and truly, this accessory has served its owner for years and is a universal item for every day. What to do if they become unusable? You can’t just throw them away: the dial has great mystical significance. This is a whole complex mechanism that counts down the time of our existence every second. What happens if you just throw them away, how to get rid of unnecessary watches without causing trouble?
How to Avoid Bad Predictions
If the clock still stops, for some mysterious reason, and you suspect something is wrong, then you need to take measures to avoid trouble. This may seem funny to some, but experts recommend:
- Break the connection between the watch and its owner
- Immerse the broken mechanism in water for at least a day and then throw it away
- Place the watch in the sun for several days, as it is believed that it removes negative energy
- Sprinkle holy water on the place where the stopped mechanism hung
It happens that all these rituals seem nonsense. If it doesn’t matter to you why the watch stopped on your wrist or in your house, then the minimum you can do is simply fix the watch yourself or take it to a workshop. And may everything be fine with you!
