Can I still wear jade that has been worn by others?

In the eyes of Chinese people, jade is full of spirituality. Our love for it seems to come from our bloodline and has become our nature. For thousands of years, jade has appeared in the history of our country in various forms. Whether it is the jade seal that symbolizes the supreme imperial power, or the golden jade burial suit that is said to be able to bring the dead back to life, they have more or less given "jade" a strong legendary color. Everyone firmly believes that it has the function of eliminating disasters and evil spirits and bringing happiness .

From ancient times to the present, people wearing jade can be found everywhere, and people have also learned about some etiquette and taboos through word of mouth, one of which is: you cannot wear other people's jade. But according to some historical records, emperors, concubines, and high-ranking officials would often reward their subordinates or slaves with the jade ornaments they wore... So, can we wear other people's jade? Let’s discuss this today.

PS. The importance of wearing jade is just like Feng Shui. Some people believe in it, some don’t. Let’s respect each other.

Can I wear jade that has been worn by someone else?

Generally speaking, it is best to wear new jade . As the saying goes: A gentleman never leaves his jade without a reason. Jade that is worn for a long time is like a close friend. It will protect you, accompany you, and be stained with various memories of what the wearer has experienced... But if the owner is suddenly changed, the psychic jade will not necessarily protect the new person, and may even use you to help the original owner avoid disaster.

But it doesn’t mean that you can’t wear jade given by everyone. You can still wear it in the following three situations:

1. Jade inherited from the family

If the jade ornaments you received as gifts have the meaning of inheritance, such as those given by your mother before you got married, or by your mother-in-law to your new daughter-in-law, and they contain the elders’ blessings and expectations for the younger generation, then you can still wear them~

2. Jade gifted by kind people

If a relative or friend you've known for many years gives you a jade ornament they once wore, that's actually acceptable, but you must be sure that he means well. If a colleague, neighbor, or friend you're not that familiar with gives you jade, it's best not to be greedy for it. They might really be using you to ward off disaster.

3. It’s not a free gift

If someone wants to give you a jade ornament, you feel uneasy about accepting it, but it’s not good not to accept it... then it’s best to give some money or something in return. As long as it’s not given for free, it will break the idea of ​​"warding off disaster".

Of course, some jade is absolutely unacceptable! You may have violated a taboo without knowing it and become a scapegoat, such as the following two types of jade ornaments:

1. Ancient jade cannot be worn

Some people think that the older the history of jade, the more significant its protective effect is. In fact, it is not true. Ancient jade is completely unsuitable for wearing (it can be collected) , especially the blood-crying ancient jade, which carries yin and evil spirits and may affect your fortune... However, these ancient jades look weird just by looking at them. Shang Shang also admires those who dare to wear them.

As mentioned above, jade has memories, and it records a lot of right and wrong, grudges and love. In folk legends, there are countless people who have become mentally confused or suffered from nightmares because of wearing ancient jade. Although Shang Shang also thinks that these stories are exaggerated, it is still better to be cautious.

2. Broken jade cannot be worn

If a jade belt given to you by someone has cracks, or is simply broken (such as a repaired gold-inlaid jade bracelet), then this jade ornament may have helped its owner to ward off disaster and has died heroically. Wearing it again will not have any protective effect on its owner .
