The
myth of breaking the mirror in seven years originates from these myths. The
ancient Egyptian word for mirror also means "life" and in Buddhism it
is claimed that our existence is like a mirror. Mirrors around all kinds of
folklore. In ancient Egypt it was claimed that a young woman could tell how
many years it would be before she got married by looking at the moon's mirror
in the mirror and calculating how long it would take to fly the bird and so on.
American folklore has it that if a woman looks at the candlelight mirror at
midnight in Halloween, she sees a mirror of her future husband on her left
shoulder.
In the
ancient China, the dream of seeing your reflection in the convex mirror
- or for that matter, water or any polished surface - was akin to death - not
necessarily your own, but one's favorite. Mirrors have also been shown in the
literature. In the Canterbury Tales, an unfortunate misfortune is reported in a
mirror in Cambusen, while Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs the Wicked Queen have
magical mirrors in which they can see Snow White. Much can be found about the
origin and use of mirrors. However, today we use it extensively before we leave
the house or use makeup. There are many different wall mirrors such as ‘Cartel
Only Me Wall Mirrors’ which are either square or rectangular, and the latter
can be hung either vertically or horizontally. The Cartel Only Me Wall Mirror
can be combined with many different frames to complement the contemporary home style.
In fact, the name is also very clear because when you look in the convex mirrors,
even though you can see the mirror behind you, what you are seeing is just you.
"Only me".
