Prohibited Items in Vastu:  In daily life, people often borrow or exchange small items with neighbours or family members. It feels normal, but Vastu Shastra says that particular objects should never be borrowed or lent because they carry strong energetic vibrations. A single mistake can attract negativity, financial loss, relationship issues or even halt your progress. Here are the four things Vastu strictly advises against sharing.

Why You Should Never Share a Watch

According to Vastu, you should never remove the watch from your wrist and give it to someone else. A watch symbolises the flow of time and luck. Lending it to someone else is believed to take away your good time and transfer misfortune onto you. People who do this often see delays in progress and find themselves stuck behind others.

Sharing a Handkerchief Brings Conflicts

Vastu experts say that your used handkerchief should neither be given to anyone nor taken from anyone. A handkerchief absorbs personal energy, emotions and even stress. When exchanged between people, it may trigger misunderstandings, quarrels and bitterness in relationships. To maintain harmony, avoid this practice altogether.

Never Give Your Broom to Anyone

The broom represents prosperity and cleanliness in Vastu. Lending your household broom to someone is believed to push away Goddess Lakshmi and invite negativity into the home. Similarly, bringing someone else’s broom inside your house may attract their problems and financial instability. So a broom should never be shared under any circumstances.

Avoid Giving White Items in the Evening

Vastu Shastra strictly advises against giving white items from your kitchen to anyone after sunset. Items like milk, curd, salt or sugar should not be exchanged in the evening. These things represent purity and wealth. Offering them after dusk is considered unlucky and may lead to financial losses, misunderstandings or drained energy. Evening-time borrowing and lending should always be avoided.
