A simple red thread on the wrist has become a stylish decoration, thanks to the example of celebrities. Many foreign and domestic media people began to wear it often, and after them this fashion was adopted and ordinary people. But what is the meaning of this decoration and what does the red thread mean for the Orthodox, not everyone can say.

The meaning and origin of the amulet red thread

A red thread tied on a hand is interpreted as a talisman that protects against damage, the evil eye, evil forces and any troubles. It is often brought as a souvenir from Jerusalem, one of the most religious cities in the world.

Such a talisman is allegedly designed to purify the energy around its owner, to take on all the sorrows and sorrows intended for him.

Origin

However, the most curious ones have logical questions: why exactly the thread, why is it red, why is it on the hand, etc.

Let's start with the fact that the red color has long been considered protective. With the help of a thread, people have also long loved to protect themselves from problems. In popular Chinese philosophy Feng Shui, this attribute is used as part of various protective symbols, the Bulgarians have a tradition of tying a gift bottle of raki with a red thread, etc. Yes, and among our ancestors, the ancient Slavs, the red color and threads were held in high esteem as powerful magical tools.

But the meaning of the red thread we are specifically interested in can be understood if we follow the one who became, so to speak, a “trendsetter”. These were famous people who are also famous for their unusual hobbies. For example, following the teachings of Kabbalah.

Kabbalah and the red thread

Kabbalah is a trend that originates in Judaism. His fans strive to comprehend the secrets of the universe, the purpose of human existence on earth and other undisclosed secrets. They also practice the use of occult magical rites.

How to relate to Kabbalah is a personal matter for everyone. At the same time, having found out where the red thread amulet comes from, it is necessary to understand that this is not a trinket toy, but a serious meaningful thing.

Kabbalists about the history of the red thread

Kabbalah fans believe that the thread was the salvation for Rachel, the foremother, symbolizing the physical world. Praying God to send her the happiness of motherhood, she received a hint from an angel who advised her to wear a red thread, after which the woman was able to give birth to two sons.

Among the followers of this teaching, there is an opinion that the thread should be wrapped around the grave of Rachel in Israel, and only then tied around your wrist. However, this is not so easy to do, so this step is simply skipped and only a special prayer is read to empower the talisman with power.

Red thread for Orthodox people

Christianity's relationship to Kabbalah

Orthodox priests most often speak critically of Kabbalah, considering it an esoteric teaching that does not recognize a single Creator, uses magic, astrology, and so on. for knowledge and development. It is also called an artificially created phenomenon that appeared as a result of some people not accepting the commandments from the New Testament.

Accordingly, the church does not accept any Kabbalistic symbols, referring them to objects originating from evil spirits and contrary to Christianity.

The attitude of Christianity to amulets

Talismans and amulets for true Christians are considered remnants of paganism. It is enough for a religious person to wear a cross around his neck, read prayers and lead a righteous life in order to hope for God's help. Where faith is weak, there is sin, and various superstitions arise there. Approximately so any orthodox priest will answer.

Is it worth wearing an Orthodox thread?

As a result, the topic “is it possible for the Orthodox to wear a red thread” and how right it is, can become the subject of long discussions, because for different people it has different meanings:

• ordinary decoration;
• copying the style of your favorite singer, actor, model, etc.;
• amulet of unknown origin;
• and, in the end, one of the symbols of Kabbalah (subject to a clear understanding of the purpose and principles of this trend).

In the first two cases, this seems to be a harmless detail. A person simply decides to tie a woolen or silk thread on his hand. Without observing any rituals, without placing high hopes on her. Whether it makes sense or not, he doesn't care.

By the way, talismans and amulets rarely work if they sincerely do not believe in them.

A thread can also be something special for a person. Thus, he may be trying to protect himself from problems, envy and unhappiness, while not wishing harm to others. This can be interpreted as an appeal to pagan Slavic traditions, i.e. to the beliefs of their ancestors, because in the same way the ancient Slavs protected newborns from evil spirits and damage, tying a red woolen thread into seven knots on their left wrist.

Naturally, in Orthodoxy such use of the red thread is no longer welcome. As well as the meaningful tying of a thread on the wrist in the form of a Kabbalistic amulet. Wearing it means not believing in the great power of God and joining the ranks of people with a different faith, views and principles, thereby creating an idol for yourself and trusting in magic. This is alien to true Christians and goes against the biblical commandments.

If there is anyway desire to wear a thread on your hand without betraying your religion, you need to know what else turns this amulet into such a powerful thing from the point of view of the Kabbalists. Roughly speaking, go from the opposite, having studied what not to do.

We have already spoken about the ceremony performed at the grave of Rachel in Israel. However, not even every Kabbalist has the opportunity to conduct it. Also, when tying a thread on the wrist, special prayers are read. It is with the help of prayers that people appeal to the power of magic and charge the amulet with a certain energy, programming it for protection. To tie an amulet to oneself means to deprive him of his strength, usually this does close person or spiritual guide.

"In one word" Orthodoxy and amulets

If the thread was brought to you by a friend who visited Israel as a souvenir, you can wear it. Especially when you don’t want to offend a person, because if you don’t put any sense into it and don’t have hopes, the thread turns into an ordinary hand-made bracelet.

Although many are sure that, even as Christians and believing in its power, we hardly betray our religious beliefs, but only become more confident in ourselves. There is such psychological reception- effect of self-hypnosis. Simply put, it becomes easier to discover the potential in yourself and see the goodness around.

Surely, you have at least once met a person who has a red thread tied around the wrist. And, most likely, wondered what it means? Many foreign and domestic celebrities also set this fashion: Madonna, Britney Spears and Rihanna, Philip Kirkorov, Vera Brezhneva, Svetlana Loboda, Lera Kudryavtseva and many other stars wear a red thread.
