Brownie-Brownie! How do I condone you?

Ancient beliefs influence even those people who consider themselves atheists. Indeed, having lost some thing in the middle of the apartment, many mechanically turn to the devil with a request to give it away, or inform the household that the tail covered the tail with a tail. How to appease this mysterious creature, think not many, but at the housewarming first let the cat most of the inhabitants of our country. They act so simply because it is accepted, otherwise there will be no luck.

Where did the tradition come from? From ancient times it was believed that a cat, a mystical creature, with its mysterious energy clears the home of devilry, prepares a place for the Boss. And this evil spirits, our ancestors were sure, is the real master of the house, the keeper of the dwelling. About Babeika told tales, singing songs.

Beliefs say that the House (Boss, Barabashka, Poltergeist, Noisy Spirit) lives in every house, apartment, castle.

The owner depends on the welfare of the tenants, their peace of mind. That's why it's very important to cajole the brownie. There are whole rituals dedicated to Barabashka. Today, these rituals again come into fashion, perhaps because many are tired of the swiftness, the reality of the world around them.

The first of April is not only the day of Fools or Laughter. On this day, his birthday marks the house. How to cajole him on this holiday? Of course, present a gift. It can be a saucer with milk, a slice of bread and salt, even a glass of vodka. Treat should be set in a remote place. If the next day the food disappears - Barabashka is pleased with the gift. If it remains - the owner left it for the birds, who should give the rest of the treat. If the present to Barabashka is not pleasing, then the gifts will be scattered in the morning.

February 7 Barabashka celebrates his name day. It was believed that a good owner of housing will always find what to appease a brownie on this day. Barabashka can be presented with sweets prepared by own hands: a pie, a sweet bun. It's good to say a conspiracy, urging the Spirit to sit side by side, to rest, and then to continue to keep peace and order in the house.

It's good to live like not only people, but also the house. How to cajole him when there are no holidays? Build a bed. It's very interesting to do with the children.

We need to find a beautiful little box. This can be a shoe box, a tin of candy or a beautiful bombonniere. There should be put "bed linen": a sheet from a piece of elegant fabric, a sewn-on blanket, a pillow.

Such a sleeping place is equipped in a secluded corner, so that no one disturbs the Boss when he is resting.

But only gifts are not enough for the Boss. He requires constant attention, then he and Domova. How to cajole him on weekdays? In principle, as well as in the rest.

Old people believe that the Spirit does not tolerate dirt, disorder in the house. In an unattached apartment, he begins to rant, to make noise at night. Then, at all, he can stop playing the role of Boss, leave the house. Residents of the abandoned house are waiting for trouble: money in the family does not linger, husbands start to drink, and wives - to walk.

Therefore, the dwelling should be kept clean and tidy. A good housekeeper at night helps clean up the apartment, keeps the house from harm.

It is very important at the move not to forget the Master. Otherwise, greatly offended Domova. How to cajole him after a serious insult, no one knows.

Therefore, when changing housing, you need to take a shovel, a large bag, a warm mitten (in different places, different beliefs), put in front of the threshold and loudly invite Barabashka to a new home. After a while, raise the improvised "sleighs" and transfer them with honor to a new place of residence. And already there to expose to him a treat, to make a new sleeper.

Of course, most likely, Brownie is a myth that has come to us from very ancient times. But is a drop of a fairy tale hindering our fussy life? What if Barabashka exists?
