Even though a mug is a very popular souvenir, it is not allowed to be given to certain people. That's why it's important to know a few nuances about this "present".

It turns out that a mug should not be given to a single person who does not have a partner. This can be perceived as a wish to always be without a partner.

If the person is in a relationship, then you should pick up two cups at once. If you give only one, it will provoke a quarrel among lovers, as well as troubles and even break up. Therefore, the best gift is a pair set.

In addition, it is forbidden to give cups that are worn out or aged. Such an innocent gift can bring poverty into a person's life.

You should also not give cups of certain colors. For example, elderly people should not be pleased with blue or navy blue cups. According to popular belief, this can bring their death closer.

What can you do to make sure that the gifted cup does not bring trouble?

If you do decide to give a cup to a loved one or they want one, there are several ways to get rid of negative energy.

  • Fill the cup to the brim with any cereal to make the gift a harbinger of prosperity. As you know, cereals symbolize a good harvest and wealth.
  • Fill the cup with sweets, dried fruits, coffee beans, tea or other delicacies. This way you will wish for a sweet and joyful life.
