The brownie is a mythical "master", the patron saint of the house, looking after the well-being of the family. It is believed that the brownie used to live in every hut. Now the residents of apartment buildings are interested in whether there is a protective spirit in their homes. It's easy to check.
It is necessary
- - a candle from the church;
- - milk;
- - honey;
- - gingerbread;
- - candy;
- - broom or shoe.
Instructions
Step 1
According to legend, the brownie lives behind the stove (in the modern version, behind the stove). If he is not comfortable there, he can choose a cozy dark corner. It was from here that the habit of sweeping the crumbs behind the stove went - to treat the owner of the house.
Step 2
In order to understand if you have a brownie, listen to the noisy noises in your apartment. Perhaps you are so accustomed to them that you do not notice how something pops, knocks, rattles in the kitchen or corridor. If your household or animals are also resting at this time, most likely, the spirit of the house is in charge there.
Step 3
Those living in a private house, according to the beliefs of their ancestors, can see a brownie at Christmas, Easter or on Maundy Thursday. To do this, you need a church candle, with which you will pre-set the entire service. Go up to the attic with a lit candle, and the brownie will seem to you, if his will.
Step 4
You can also find the brownie by following the traces of his "life activity". It is known that he is a gourmand who prefers honey, milk, gingerbread, sweets. Leave a treat for the brownie behind the stove or in a dark corner, and if the next morning you find that the sweets are gone, then the owner of the house has accepted your gift. Do not be afraid that the pets will eat the treat - the brownie will not get angry, he loves animals and plays with them.
Step 5
If, after an unsuccessful search, you realize that the brownie has bypassed your apartment, do not be discouraged - you can find it for yourself elsewhere. Go to the village where there are houses abandoned by their inhabitants. Choose the cleanest and nicest hut for you. In such a brownie will probably live, maintaining order in anticipation of the arrival of the owners. Put a treat on the floor and invite the brownie to come and live with you.
Step 6
Come into this house after a while. If the spirit hurls an object at you (that is, an object unexpectedly falls on you) or screams, then it does not intend to live with you. And if it knocks on the wall, substitute a broom or a shoe. Say aloud: "Brownie, get in the sleigh, come with us." The home spirit will accept your invitation and you can bring it to your apartment.
