Bad Luck Gift Items: Did you know that in some situations, a gift that is very nicely chosen may also cause problems in your relationship after you give the gift? Some items, according to astrology as well as Vastu Shastra, also give off negative energy. Giving such items to your beloved brother or your best friend may cause you some unpleasant situations, and instead of brotherhood or friendship, you may find yourself in a position of enmity. The following seven items are some of the items that can be termed as "cursed gifts." It is therefore necessary that you avoid them in any way possible to maintain your friendships.
7 Cursed Gift Items That Can Turn Best Friends Into Bitter Rivals
1. Watch: It may sound strange, but gifting a watch is considered inauspicious. A watch represents a person's time in life. According to ancient beliefs, giving a watch means you are giving away your good time or potentially causing the recipient's bad times to begin. It is seen as a sign of hindering progress and bringing stagnation to relationships.
2. Handkerchief: In astrology, a handkerchief is considered a symbol of sorrow and separation. They are often used to wipe away tears. Gifting a handkerchief to a friend means you are unknowingly inviting sadness or separation into their life. This can lead to unnecessary arguments that ultimately cause friendships to break.
3. Perfume: Fragrances or perfume are associated with the planet Venus, and while it is generally considered a lovely gift, there is an old belief surrounding it. It is believed that as the fragrance of the perfume fades, the attraction and affection between friends also diminish. Many people consider it a cause of sudden distance in relationships.
4. Black Coloured Clothes: Black is associated with Saturn and is considered a symbol of seriousness and discipline. However, giving black clothes as a gift can create distance and sorrow in relationships. This colour absorbs energy and sometimes causes misunderstandings or mental stress between friends.

5. Pointed Or Sharp Objects: Gifting knives, scissors, or any sharp objects is extremely inauspicious according to Vastu Shastra. They represent ‘cutting.’ If one sends or gives away these to others, it is supposed to cut the thread of ‘love’ and bring animosity or an angry dispute to relationships. If you are giving a kitchen set, it's best to remove the knives.
6. Shoes: It is said that gifting shoes causes people to "walk away" from each other's lives. Shoes are also considered a symbol of Saturn. Gifting them can increase conflicts and troubles. In the case of friendships, it is considered to pave the way for separation, so it's better to give money for shoes rather than gifting them yourself.
7. Negative Or Violent Paintings: Never give a painting that shows a negative environment like that of a war, a sinking ship, or a ferocious animal like a lion or tiger hunting. These images tend to multiply negative energies. They affect the serenity within the household and bring a lack of trust towards friendships.
