Icicles hanging from roofs and trees in winter not only decorate nature, but also become an object of attention in the world of superstitions and omens.
Therefore, it is worth remembering several popular signs and superstitions associated with icicles.
Positive changes
According to the sign, if an icicle forms during a snowfall, it may be a sign of a long-awaited event or a meeting with good luck.
And if it began to melt the next day, then this may indicate positive changes.
You can't stand under icicles
According to popular belief, standing or walking under an icicle is considered dangerous, as it may break and fall.
Of course, this ban is quite rational, because an icicle poses a real danger to life.
The Vanishing Trouble
It is believed that if an icicle quickly disappears during melting, it may be a sign of the destruction of negative energy around you.
The icicle seems to "absorb" the troubles and then disappears.
Family luck
There is a belief that icicles on the roof of a house can bring family luck.
The more icicles there are, the more prosperous the family can be, according to this superstition.
Shape and arrangement
The shape and location of icicles may indicate possible changes in personal relationships.
If its edges are sharp and look dangerous, then this may indicate negative changes. It is a completely different story if its edges are rounded.
Amulet
It is believed that icicles on the roof of a house can serve as a talisman against storms and troubles.
They supposedly protect the house from strong winds and snowfalls.
Of course, many people do not believe in this sign for objective reasons.
