Bad wedding omens
Our ancestors sought by any means to protect the new family from the influence of evil forces; it was then that wedding signs appeared, the knowledge of which was passed on from generation to generation. Therefore, from the moment the knowledge of ancient beliefs came to you, you must decide for yourself whether or not to follow wedding traditions and superstitions. However, you should not ignore them. If you believe in good signs, they will definitely bring good luck, love, prosperity and family happiness. Knowing bad omens is no less useful. After all, by warning against bad omens, you will be convinced that everything will be fine.
What does sunny weather mean for a wedding?
According to popular predictions, rain that begins on the wedding day is a favorable sign. Bad weather during the celebration promises the newlyweds a happy family life, full of material wealth and mutual respect.
It often happens that immediately after the rain the sun comes out. In this case, among those present there are immediately experts in folk superstitions, who readily interpret these signs of heaven:
- If it rains during the wedding ceremony and then the sun appears, this is perceived as a favorable sign. The omen promises to receive unexpected but pleasant news.
- When a rainbow appears in the sky after a short and light rain, they say that the new family will experience prosperity and no serious financial problems.
- If during precipitation there is a sunny sky (the so-called blind rain), then experts in superstitions say that future family life will be easy, filled with joy and smiles.
Rain during wedding celebrations is a favorable omen. This is the opinion held by most people. And this despite negative interpretations. Which signs to believe and which ones not to believe is the choice of each person. However, esotericists advise not to pay too close attention to bad predictions. Then luck will definitely not bypass the new family.
Signs before the wedding
The very first sign that you should pay attention to is the name of the month of the wedding day; according to legend, if the name contains the letter “P”, then you can avoid many troubles. In addition, since ancient times there have been signs that claim that:
- You cannot organize a wedding with borrowed money - there will be no wealth in the family.
- The groom is not allowed to see the bride's wedding dress before the wedding. This popular superstition foreshadows misunderstandings and scandals in the family. A worse version of this belief may be if a man sees his bride in a wedding dress, which predicts a quick divorce for the newlyweds.
- Renting wedding accessories and paraphernalia is considered a bad omen. After all, the bride can repeat the fate of the previous mistress. This is especially true if you are not sure that the previous owners had a happy and successful marriage.
- The bride needs to cry at her bachelorette party or before the wedding in accordance with the old saying: If you don’t cry at the table, you’ll cry behind the pillar (i.e. when you’re married)
. - In addition, if a bride pricks herself with a needle before the wedding, this will lead to quarrels in the family, so it is better for her to give up sewing a week before the celebration.
- If the newlywed loses a glove or breaks a mirror before the wedding, this is a bad omen.
- It is a bad omen for the bride and groom if the wedding day is scheduled for the thirteenth, leading to difficulties in family life. Misfortune also haunts those couples who announced their upcoming marriage at the end of one quarter of the year, and the wedding took place at the beginning of the next.
The night before the wedding is the moment of saying goodbye to single life. The bride and groom have something to think about, something to say goodbye to, because from the next day a completely new stage will begin. Of course, for many couples, the ancient meaning of the last night has lost its meaning, but in tribute to traditions, signs and one’s own inner peace, it is better to spend the night before the wedding separately. In addition, the main value of spending the night apart is that both have the opportunity to talk a lot with loved ones, discuss all their worries and joys, without fear that the other half will find out about it.
Different rain, different interpretation
The exact meaning of the signs can only be understood if we take into account the characteristics of precipitation:
- light rain - many pleasant events await the newlyweds;
- the sun breaks through the clouds - there is a lot of joy and laughter, there will be a feeling of lightness and ease in the relationship;
- after a short rain, a rainbow appeared - prosperity in the family;
- torrential, heavy rain - you will be able to forget all the grievances, the spouses will begin to appreciate each other even more;
- began at the wedding and did not stop the whole next day - a long and happy family life;
- precipitation in the winter season - moving to a new place of residence or traveling;
- rain in the spring - the financial situation will soon improve;
- summer rain - a quick addition to the family;
- bad weather in autumn - a lot of positive emotions;
- the rain did not stop during the night before the wedding - strong relationships between the newlyweds and complete mutual understanding.
The sign is interpreted in a negative way in one single case - a thunderstorm has begun. Then there will be frequent quarrels in the family.
Folk superstitions on your wedding day
For the future bride and groom, preparing for their wedding day is a troubling and troublesome period, which involves performing many rituals and observing traditions. After all, how the wedding day goes, one can judge the future life of the newlyweds, their wealth and well-being. It is also necessary to remember that many wedding signs can have a negative connotation, because every little thing at a wedding matters. Therefore, not only the bride and groom, but also their parents, are asking the question: What wedding superstitions and signs do newlyweds need to know about in order for their family life to develop safely and happily?
These beliefs include the following:
- Wedding ribbons on the cortege, from pink to burgundy with knots and bows, protect the young couple from alien energy, symbolize goodness and mutual understanding, preserve marital happiness, the indissolubility of marriage in happiness and in sorrow, in addition, they are amulets of health. And ribbons - lilac, violet, lilac, blue, yellow - attract the evil eye.
- When future spouses go to the registry office, one cannot look back, since at that moment there is a mental return home, and after that there will be no agreement in married life.
- If on the way to the registry office of the wedding procession there is a funeral, you need to take a different road, otherwise you can invite trouble.
- In the registry office, the bride, holding the groom's arm, creates a closed energy space that protects against the penetration of anything bad. Also, on this day, spouses should not let anyone pass between them, so that happiness is not broken and to avoid the evil eye.
- Newlyweds should not give their wedding rings to anyone. Only a small child who does not yet have a supply of negative energy can hold them. He also gives wedding rings to the newlyweds. In addition, newlyweds should not hold an empty ring box in their hands, otherwise they will face disappointment and poverty in their family life. This can be entrusted to an unmarried girlfriend or witness.
- After registering the marriage in the registry office, under no circumstances should the newlyweds go directly to the celebration. We need to travel around the city and its surroundings in order to lead the evil force into a dead end.
- Also, the ringing of small bells, heard along the path of the young spouses after the official part of the marriage, drives away everything unclean, evil and anger, and calls on good forces to help the young family. In addition, the ringing of bells expels negative energy from the newlyweds themselves.
- When the newlyweds drive up to the wedding venue, the car should honk loudly. This also applies to repelling evil spirits and protection from the evil eye.
- Young spouses are greeted with bread and salt. The salt shaker on the loaf should be oval - a symbol of a woman-mother, the keeper of the hearth, a talisman for health and against the evil eye of future children. The spouses must take a bite of the loaf of bread; if one of them was unable to take a bite of the bread, the family will face divorce.
- You should know that it is considered a bad omen if knives and forks are given as gifts for a wedding, foreshadowing a life of quarrels for the young family. To neutralize this superstition, if you still give cutlery with knives and forks, you must give the coin to the giver.
- When one of the bride's decorations falls on her wedding day, you should expect troubles in the marriage. It is especially dangerous if the decoration disappears, perhaps this is the work of ill-wishers.
- A friend, blocking the mirror of a young woman on her wedding day, can take her husband away from her.

Fortune Teller
If the sun shines along with the rain, and especially if a rainbow is visible, then the couple can count on a bright, happy and rich life together, in which everything will go like clockwork. Tamara Solntseva
If you look into this issue, then there is a possibility that ill-wishers came up with this sign. The nature of people in general does not change, and at all times girls have had hypocritical friends who, on the outside, supposedly rejoiced at their neighbor’s happiness, but on the inside they envied her and hated her with all their souls.
Some believe that it was precisely such people, finding themselves powerless in front of other people’s happiness, who wanted to somehow harm the newlyweds and spoil their mood, which is why they came up with bad omens. This theory is supported by the fact that there is no compelling basis for the belief that rain at a wedding promises tears for the couple.
However, there was one bad sign associated with rain on a wedding. It was considered a bad omen if the precipitation did not stop for a minute the whole day and it was during the ceremony that it turned into a thunderstorm with thunder, then this was considered a bad omen. The mood of the newlyweds deteriorated, unpleasant thoughts crept into their heads, and in general the whole wedding was no longer in such a rosy spirit.
