Are you planning to gift something to your loved one this christmas? You might require suggestions, right! Also, we don’t want to gift something that affects them and astrology can help you with this? According to Vedic Astrology, there are certain things that we should not give to our loved ones. As we love them, we aim for the betterment of their lives and future.

Thus, things associated with the planets, like Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu, should be avoided. We should avoid giving them black clothes, handkerchiefs, sharp objects, watches, shoes, glass objects, dogs, Taj mahal, a blank purse, and leather. Chinmayee Dash, who is an astrologer of All India Institute of Occult Science, founded by Gurudev Shrie Kashyap, gives helpful insights about the things we should never gift our loved ones.

Let’s find out what gifts we should avoid. 

Black clothes: 

According to Vedic astrology, black is considered the color of negativity, sorrow, grief, and pain. If we gift black clothes to our loved ones, it will influence the planets Saturn and Venus. In astrology, we give black clothes to needy people to resolve Saturn-related issues. Gifting black clothes to a relative could cause misunderstandings, quarrels, and the breakup of that relationship. You can opt for pink and white clothes for a pleasant relationship.

Sharp Objects: 

Sharp objects are made up of iron and used for cutting anything. Iron is the metal of Saturn. Gifting sharp objects may cause conflicts and misfortune for them. Instead of sharp objects, you should gift beautiful statues and idols.

Watches: 

It is the symbol of time. Time is the most powerful thing in the universe. Gifting a watch means gifting your time to others, which may be good or bad. Time also represents growth. When time stops, it means the growth of someone's life will stop. A bracelet can be gifted instead of a watch. 

Shoes: 

Shoes always come in pairs and are kept on our feet. To whom we love, we keep them in our hearts. It is believed that gifting shoes may feel disrespectful. As it comes in pairs, if gifted to someone who is far from us, they may get away. In astrological shoes also come the influence of the saturn. so it will be better to avoid shoes for gifting.

Glass objects: 

Glass objects are associated with Rahu. Gifting glass objects to loved ones may create misunderstandings and illusions in the relationship. It is believed that the breaking of glass may break the relationship. Things made of stone and wood are preferable to glass.

Pet Dogs: 

Dogs should not be gifted to our loved ones because they come under the influence of ketu. Ketu always brings the detachment of worldly things. So it should be avoided to give a dog. You can buy parrots and fly them into the sky with your partner. It will bring eternal love into your relationship.

Taj Mahal: 

Often, people give Taj Mahal to their loved ones as a symbol of love. But, because of the memory of death, gifting Taj Mahal may end the relationship. You may opt for 'Ram Setu,' as it is the bridge for love.

Blank purse: 

A purse is kept for storing money. If a blank purse is gifted, it may bring financial losses to that person. So when gifting a purse to someone, you should keep some money in it. Then it will be fruitful for him or her.

Leather: 

Leather is made from dead animals. Sometimes it is obtained after the death of animals, and sometimes they are killed for leather. The products made from cruelty, pain, and sorrow will never be favorable to us. Leather comes under the influence of Saturn. It should be avoided for gifting because it will bring cruelty, unhappiness, and grief to the relationship.
