From ancient times to New Year's Eve, people have been adhering to many prejudices and omens - to gain or maintain the good fortune and success of the new year. Some of them have survived to this day. At first glance, they may seem quite strange, but there is something in these traditions of preparation and celebration of the New Year.

For example, start the morning of December 31 with the purchase of a new broom, which is laced with red ribbon and placed in the corner with the handle down. In order not to cause trouble for themselves or relatives, it was forbidden to do things on the eve of the New Year. It is also impossible to take out the garbage on such a magical night because, they say, it is possible to earn big losses and expenses in the new year. Another important point on New Year's Eve is to fill the wallet with money, otherwise it will remain empty next year. For the abundance in the house in advance bake a pie, which will also serve as a guard against adversity. A nice and well-known sign is the purchase of new toys for the Christmas tree. They are associated with wishes for the New Year, which are sure to be realized.

There are also a few related signs with the New Year's table. It should be generous, rich and varied dishes, that is, it is not worth saving on such a night. The head of the family, before sitting down at the table, should knock his fist - in order for the abundance of the table to increase to the abundance of the whole house. In any case, do not quarrel on New Year's Eve or start conversations on controversial topics. On the contrary, you need to have more fun and joke to convey pleasant emotions throughout the year. Interestingly, anyone lucky enough to sneeze at the New Year's table will definitely be happy in the new year.
It is impossible not to mention the signs at the time of the battle of chimes. It is mandatory to raise glasses and greet each other. By the way, whoever takes the last sip by 00:01 is said to be the happiest person of the year. Also, every wish that has been made in the last 60 seconds will be fulfilled.

So, what signs and prejudices to follow, and which to ignore - to decide each individually. But remember that faith in miracles and sincere wishes always have incredible power. Be happy and loved in the New 2020 year, let the troubles go by and good luck pouring in from every corner of the house and yard.
Happy New Year!
