As a phrase attributed to Sir Winston Churchill goes: “We shape our dwellings, and afterwards our dwellings shape us”. So, it would be wise to take care of the energies that we bring into our homes.

With that in mind, we have prepared a list of 5 things it is not recommended to have at home.

Allegedly brightness of metals can repel bad energies, but metals in poor condition can attract evil spirits. So, make sure to clean or discard rusty objects such as appliances, cutlery, or even antiques purchased precisely for that.

2. Belongings or photos of the deceased

It is believed that keeping objects or photos of the deceased on display can inhibit the renewal of the energies of a place. So if you have something from a loved one who is no longer with us, it is better to keep the object in a drawer or cabinet.

3. Dirty or upside down brooms

Dust and dirt that accumulate on the brooms also carry certain electromagnetic information, so ideally they should be washed at least once a week. It is also believed that for prosperity they are best kept in a normal position, not upside down.

4. Bedroom mirrors

Although having a mirror in the bedroom is very practical, Feng Shui believers claim that this object shouldn’t be arranged so as to reflect you while you are sleeping. Since it allegedly can impair your sleep, it is advisable to relocate the mirror or even have it covered at bedtime.

5. Plants with thorns

It is believed that thorny plants have defensive energy and if placed inside the house can generate conflicts between the residents. So, the best place to keep them is outside or at the entrance of the house. This way they will serve for the protection of your home.
