It is always nice to make a gift and, paying tribute to the ancient pagan tradition, on the eve of the anniversary or solemn event in the life of a loved one, each of us goes to the store to buy a present for the holiday. As a guideline, information obtained during a veiled conversation with the hero of the day on the subject of a gift or openly expressed wishes is usually used.
Even after a frank conversation about a birthday present, everything is not so simple, especially if the person having the anniversary wanted to get a watch as a present. The problem is not finding the right model at an affordable price. A lot of bad superstitions are associated with the “ticking gift” and will accept it.
When studying logic, students are often offered the following task to build a synthetic chain of statements: “The clock and the calendar measure time intervals. A man cannot change the course of time by an effort of will. Human life is the span of time from life to death. How to extend the life of a person?
On theses that are included in this task, almost all the signs and superstitions about watches are built. The most unpleasant moment is that the clock for the anniversary is usually given to a loved one or loved one with sincere wishes of happiness and long life, while not counting on the opposite effect.
The Internet plays a big role in inflating hysteria around the negative energy of the clock. By typing in the Google search query "superstition gift clock", you can "dig up" about half a million links that confirm the worst assumptions. Homebrew followers of the blind Vanga and modern "certified psychics" in their posts on the Internet offer for a fortune a wide variety of methods of dealing with bad energy coming from "modern chronometers" and methods of protecting the aura for men and women.
Men psychics and healers advise:
- To neutralize a harmful field, buy a magnetic or silver bracelet and constantly wear a wristband on your arm;
- put a glass of water on the table next to the chronometer;
- overnight cover the ticking gift with a white cloth;
- to carry out for the night all hours, except an alarm clock, from a living room to the kitchen;
- buy a piece of amber or rock crystal and put it near the clock;
- burn in a room in which there is a gift, incense, or saturate the air with ozone;
- periodically invite the clergyman to conduct rituals in the room with the clock.
Women wise advisers offer:
- buy jewelry with a "cat's eye", amber or rock crystal and constantly wear around your neck;
- conduct a ritual with water and wax candles to “cleanse” from the poor energy of the gift;
- place a round mirror under the clock on the table.
Family and friends of the hero of the day for protection from undesirable effects of bad aura recommend put incense on every windowsill, a few pine or spruce twigs, paper or cotton wool with a few drops of fir oil, eucalyptus oil or a round mirror. Gift hours to your second half (wife or husband) should be chosen according to personal preferences and taste. Emphasizes the depth of feelings and respect engraved greeting on the case or monogram.
If the watch has become an unexpected birthday present, do not panic. Certified magicians are advised not to sell or give this gift to friends - this behavior can bring on even greater misfortunes. According to their advice, it is enough to hold the clock for three days under a plastic box, after which the box should be washed with soap and water.

- “The thirteenth number is the fatal number”;
- lucky ticket number for travel - luck on that day at work;
- a woman with an empty bucket - to poverty and misfortune;

and many others.
The mechanism of the impact of superstition on humans
The topic of the connection of watches with negative energy, which is actively discussed on the Internet, penetrates our consciousness imperceptibly and gradually suppresses logical thinking and common sense, producing concepts at the mention of watches. Instead of sound logic and attempts to find out the true state of things, a person begins to blindly believe in the resulting installation: “A gift clock is the cause of personal failures and deterioration of health.”
In the presence of a number of somatic diseases (hypertension, diabetes, vascular spasms, a previous heart attack or stroke) at the very thought of such a gift in the light of predictions and hysteria that is inflated around the clock, a sharp deterioration in health can occur. Psychologists say that most superstitions "work" at the subconscious level on the principle of self-hypnosis. According to the collected statistical data in different age groups (from 18 to 60 years) suggestibility of mentally healthy people is about 75%.
This figure was obtained during the experiment, for which volunteers of different ages were invited. Each subject was given a plumb line in his right hand (a thread with a metal ball with a weight of about 50 grams attached at the end) and asked to hold him in a relaxed hand in a suspended state.
All subjects were clear, without immersion in a hypnotic trance. To exclude the subjective moment during the experiment, the subjects were not allowed to look at the thread with a suspended load and talk. At the very beginning of the experiment, a psychologist from the next room, through an open door, asked the question "Who feels that the load on the thread starts spinning in a circle?". After that, in about 70% of the subjects, the ball began to perform subtle circular movements around the vertical axis. The subjects themselves claimed that at that moment they felt like some unknown force was controlling the hand.
The experiment was repeatedly carried out in different countries and different age groups. He fully confirmed the suggestive impact will take and superstitions on the human psyche.
Thoughts are material: how to get around evil rock
NLP specialists use self-hypnosis when coding for success. Having received a speech setup for the development and improvement of the personality during a suggestion session without hypnotic trance, the human brain begins to work more productively and makes fewer logical errors in the process of logical analysis and prediction of complex and intricate life situations. The processing of incoming information becomes systematic, consistent and accurate.
The empirical analysis of difficult situations is improved (when it is impossible to obtain complete information for consideration). The number of hasty and rash decisions is drastically reduced. - a person becomes successful in work and in personal life.
It follows from the above: in most cases, the “black line” in life is not the result of the influence of mystical forces, conspiracy, or evil eye. Everything is simple enough - in order to circumvent the evil fate and failure you can never think about an adverse outcome. In this case, failures in exams and unsuccessful interviews will always be bypassed.
Waking up in the morning before a responsible interview, a difficult exam or the first working day at a new place, you need to relax, look at the clear sky, look for familiar images and figures among the clouds, take a walk in the park or square. You can not focus your thoughts on a stopped alarm clock, bad presentiments and dreams the day before, suddenly torn laces or lack of hot water supply; It is impossible to emphasize trivialities and accidents.
Knowledge of the interpretation will take and superstition does not really mean complete control over the events happening around. Due to the substitution of concepts in the interpretation of superstitions and will take in the mind creates a synthetic sense of "master of the situation", leading to bravado and loss of control over the situation.
When choosing a watch as a gift for your girlfriend, you should consider one subtle nuance - women love with eyes and ears. Most often, girls do not pay attention to the price of the gift, the main thing for them is the form and content. It must be remembered that accepting a gift, they always notice and subconsciously analyze the details that are small and seemingly insignificant at first glance, giving them great importance. Sensitive and thin-skinned young girls in search of psychological protection from future difficult life situations guess on Tarot cards, coffee grounds, wax, study dream books, study superstitions and signs.
Unlike women, most men have an analytical mindset - they are almost not interested in signs and predictions. Male emotions and feelings are always very well hidden and almost invisible in the process of communication.
In the situation with predictions and signs that relate to watches, the blind faith of people with higher education in ancient pagan myths and outright nonsense of psychics obsessed with the desire to divide a client for money at any cost, causes psychologists genuine surprise.

How to give a watch?
Given the unfavorable superstitious interpretation of watches as a gift It is necessary to observe some points:
- if a person who is presented with a gift, believes in omens or is interested in occultism, ask him for a coin in exchange for the chronometer, thus it turns out that he bought a watch for a meager fee;
- Youths can give watches with a built-in radio, video projector, thermometer, hygrometer or barometer.
- lovers of antiquity will be pleased with a massive grandfather clock.
- It is best for the hero of the day to present a watch with a plate on which the engraver wrote warm and tender greetings and wishes.
Science vs. Superstition
The main computer of the human body (its brain) and the most complex electromagnetic and biochemical processes occurring in it in the process of memorizing and processing information still remain a mystery with seven seals.
The mechanism of influence revealed by science will take and superstitions is realized through a suggestive influence on a person, self-hypnosis and self-suggestion. These conclusions follow from the theory of the eminent physiologist Ivan Petrovich Pavlov. They have nothing in common with omens, superstitions, occultism, fields unknown to science and the action of supernatural forces.
The average coincidence will take and superstitions with real events does not exceed 0.1%, which indicates the lack of communication between the studied phenomena. Despite the enormous budgetary expenditures, irrefutable evidence has not yet been found that can unequivocally confirm or deny the connection and will accept superstitions with the events taking place. The only exception is the human impact on the events taking place under the influence of suggestive or hypnotic suggestion.
