Horseshoe on Your Door: Luck, Protection, or Just a Myth?

  • The tradition of hanging horseshoes on doors is widespread in India, believed to bring auspiciousness, good fortune, and protection from negative energies.
  • Its origins stem from Indian folk beliefs (iron wards off evil, horse symbolizes strength) and European folklore (Saint Dunstan's tale with the Devil).
  • While not directly in Vastu Shastra, the use of iron for protection is interpreted to support horseshoes as a Vastu remedy.
  • Believers hang horseshoes to prevent negative energies, attract wealth, and resolve financial difficulties, often with specific hanging orientations.
  • Scientifically, there's no proof of good luck, but psychologically, it can foster positive thinking and self-confidence.

Why It Matters: Horseshoes are widely believed to bring luck and protection, rooted in tradition and folklore, offering psychological benefits.
