In Hindu beliefs, some everyday habits are also linked to the energy of life and the influence of the planets. One of these beliefs is that throwing broken hair here and there is considered inauspicious. According to astrology, this can increase negative energy and is especially said to activate the effects associated with Saturn and Rahu.
Although it is mainly based on traditional beliefs, many people still consider it important from both precaution and hygiene point of view.
What could be the effect according to beliefs?
From the astrological point of view, it is said that throwing hair in the wrong way can increase some problems in life, such as-
Mental stress and anxiety, frequent interruptions in work, increase in unnecessary expenses, misunderstanding in relationships, decrease in self-confidence, increase in negative thoughts.
In astrology, Saturn is considered to be the factor of karma, discipline and justice, while Rahu is associated with confusion, sudden events and mental instability. In such a situation, it is believed that even small mistakes made carelessly can increase the influence of these planets.
The right way to pluck your hair
According to traditional beliefs, broken hair should not be thrown in the open but should be thrown in the dustbin or some clean place. Some people also consider it auspicious to wrap it in paper and throw it away. The idea behind this is that unnecessarily dangling objects attached to the body can increase negative energy.
Both caution and cleanliness are necessary
If seen from a modern point of view, this habit is mainly related to cleanliness and health. Throwing hair in the open can spread dirt, so it is also seen as a good habit.
