Why you can't sit on the table: signs and facts

In an informal setting, it is considered quite normal to sit down at the table. But superstitions believe otherwise - a terrible fate awaits everyone who dares to do this. What exactly do the signs predict? And is it worth listening to them? Let's analyze the reasons for the appearance of this superstition.

Why you can't sit on the table: the reasons for the ban

There are several signs that explain this prohibition. The first of them is connected, oddly enough, with Christianity (which, by the way, has a negative attitude to such superstitions). It is believed that it is God who sends food to the table - that is, he takes care of filling the table. If a person shows such disrespect to this table that he is satisfied with his fifth point, then God can get angry and stop sending food (or money with which you can buy). This sign predicts poverty and hunger in the family.

All the food on the table, according to the adherents of the first version, is sent by God, so sitting down on the table means showing disrespect to the Lord.

The second sign is already based not on God, but on faith in negative energy. Adherents of this version argue that at the table (especially in the kitchen) a person is prone to negative thoughts or conversations. And sitting on this table, he will easily absorb all this negative into himself. Because of this, he will be haunted by misfortune and failure. It is not known why energy is absorbed through the buttocks, but not through hands placed on the same table. In any case, another explanation for superstition has no rational basis.

There is also a sign concerning only girls. It is believed that, sitting on the table, they drive away all suitors from themselves and lead themselves to celibacy. Well, perhaps this has some sense of common sense - a person who likes exceptionally well-bred muslin young ladies will surely pass by the girl who allows herself to sit on the table. But is that bad?

For young men, sitting on the table does not bode well. On the contrary, it is believed that if a guy has the habit of sitting on the edge of the table, then in the future he will shine wealth and a large, expensive house. This is again explained by energy. For some reason, this time it becomes positive and gives the young man the ability to make money.

Real reasons

Even disregarding superstition, sometimes there are reasons why you should refrain from sitting on the table:

• etiquette. Sitting on the table is considered rather indecent, so allow yourself to do it only with your close friends;
• mud. An unkempt kitchen table plus your pretty light-colored pants is an awkward situation. Make sure the surface you are going to sit on is clean enough;
• security. Sometimes tables turn out to be quite unreliable structures, and sitting on them can result in injury. Especially if you are not a 40 kg fluff girl.

Sometimes sitting at the table is a gross violation of etiquette and a manifestation of disrespect for people around you. But in close company or even alone with yourself, you can always allow yourself such liberty - failure and celibacy will definitely not pursue you for this.
