What appear lice in terms of people's will

Lice - one of the most unpleasant human parasites. Any civilized person is trying in every way to protect themselves and their loved ones from these insects, but today they are easy to pick up in public places, kindergartens and even schools. It is because of such a negative attitude of people towards lice that folk omens almost always treat infection with them, too, as a bad omen.

So, let's see what the lice appear in terms of popular beliefs and take.

 

Signs of happiness and unhappiness

Why do lice appear? Folk omens explain this by the rapid emergence of affairs and troubles, which will have to be urgently addressed. By the way, to predict how numerous these efforts will be, it is possible by the number of lice: the more, the worse.

There is a slightly different option: head lice, which are found on the body or in their underwear, predict future failures to their “owner”.To see lice on the open areas of the body or even on the face - to the impoverishment of the economy, damage to property. In other words, financial losses or large waste are coming.

You can determine what exactly lice and predict by their location on the head. If most of the lice are concentrated on the back of the head, this means that you can not worry - all the bad events have already passed. If the lice prefer to gather around the forehead, it is bad - the troubles are just waiting, and you need to start preparing for them now.

But another sign says: if lice have appeared in the whole family - this may be a sign of a big trouble coming. This is usually associated with the death of a close relative, fire or robbery. Of course, when lice appear, you should not start to panic, but it is better to observe increased caution.

It is interesting

Some folk signs say that it is possible to determine where the misfortunes will come from. If a girl has got head lice, then she will get into trouble from a man. For men, this sign acts the other way around, and they need to beware of a dirty trick on the part of women.

There are folk signs about lice associated with children.One of them claims that lice infest babies before their parents begin to experience financial difficulties. However, if a complete ruin threatens, the lice disappear just as abruptly as they appeared.

 

A few will take about the causes of lice

The appearance of lice signs are often associated with certain actions of the person. For example, it is believed that lice are inflamed in those who loved to eat cherry “glue” as a child. In fact, in the cherry glue, of course, there are no substances that somehow could provoke a problem.

In order not to get lice, signs recommend never to put your hat on the dining table. Most likely, this is due to the primordial respect for the place of the meal and the inadmissibility of its "desecration" of foreign objects.

BUT where do lice come from? Folk signs of antiquity assured that these insects are an integral part of man, and they live right in his body. When the time comes and some events are coming, lice come out (through the skin or bumps on the head) and settle in the hair.

In fact, lice simply cannot live in and out of the human body.These insects are common parasites that are transmitted by contact from a person already infected with lice.

You can easily find signs (they are very common today), which say that the lice infest nerves and experiences. Many people believe in it, considering the appearance of lice as a common disease arising from reduced immunity due to stress.

In fact, pediculosis has nothing to do with immunity and is not an infectious disease. If a person has not been in contact with another patient or infected things, then the lice simply have nowhere to appear. They do not spread through the air like microbes or bacteria.

 

Lice and weather

As we have seen above, the question “why lice appear"Omens respond differently. What is interesting - it is not always associated with misfortunes or misfortunes, sometimes, insects simply promise a change in the weather.

Most sources indicate that lice are harbingers of rain and bad weather, but never good weather. Here are some folk signs about lice and weather:

• Lice begin to actively crawl on the head and rustle - to the pouring rain.
• If lice crawl on clothes and worry - be bad weather and thunder.
• Lice run away - drive cattle into the barn (it will rain).

On a note

Popular belief says that lice are given to a person to fight with his own laziness and unwillingness to do something. In some ways this is true: when lice appear, then willy-nilly, you have to decide the question of their early elimination with the help of medical preparations.

 

Good signs about the appearance of lice

And if there are good signs, if lice infest? As it turns out, beliefs do not always promise a black line in life when they appear.

Since ancient times, people believed that a person who has absolutely no lice will be unhappy, since even insects bypass him. Some signs said that the presence of lice prophesied happiness and wealth, although the insect itself was recognized as "unclean."

Finding a louse with a friend or guest was a good sign and promised long-term friendships without quarrels, disagreements, or carve-ups. In everyday life, there was even a custom to search for these insects on their guests, which was considered a great honor and a sign of the special location of the owners of the house. While the search for parasites continued, it was strictly forbidden to eat.

Also in ancient times there was a proverb: “Lousy means lucky.”People who did not have lice were considered very suspicious.

And if a louse ran through the body of a deceased person, and it was seen by relatives, it means that the righteous man died and his soul goes straight to heaven. There are also quite often mentions of lice as symbols of successful work. It was assumed that the hospitable host in the house must have lice, as a symbol of wealth.

Good signs about these bloodsucking insects are most likely related to the state of hygiene in past centuries. Russian people have always loved to bathe in the bath and did not disdain it (unlike foreigners), but more often “bathing” was arranged once a week. The rest of the time, there was no hygiene other than washing and washing hands.

At the same time, large families lived in the village huts, the members of which often slept literally in "pokotom" or on neighboring shops. In this case, all the girls had long hair, the men in honor had beards and curls to the shoulders. Naturally, if at least one person (for example, a child) had lice, then lice spread with lightning speed throughout the whole family.

They did not hurry to get rid of lice and often coexisted with them for many years, finding nothing shameful about it.Only at the beginning of the 20th century did hygiene and medicine evolve so much that they were able to stop total lice infestation.

Most people will take about head lice from ancient times, so they reflect the opinion of people of those years. For example, here are some more interesting signs:

• If you kill the lice and then do not wash your hands, then you will die in torment.
• You can not shake the crumbs on the floor - get lice.
• It is not necessary to count the lice, found from another - spread to you.

The information indicated in the national signs is rather contradictory. You can use it and make predictions for your own future, or you can be skeptical about it.

In any case, lice are found even in the modern developed world, and they can be infected in any public place. The only thing that can be said with certainty: the appearance of lice precisely promises financial expenses for visiting a doctor or buying a quality shampoo or comb.

Be healthy!
