Is breaking glass inauspicious?

Breaking of glass is considered both auspicious and inauspicious. Breaking of glass on an auspicious occasion is a bad omen. At the same time, breaking of glass also indicates an auspicious event. In Indian tradition, breaking of glass has always been considered inauspicious, and has been associated with the sign of some terrible event. If a mirror breaks in your house, it is considered auspicious. If you accidentally break a glass, it is believed that evil is leaving your house and good luck is about to come. This means that the glass takes upon itself the misfortune that befalls you and it breaks, saving you. But the coming calamity is averted.

According to Vastu Shastra, if any glass item or mirror kept in the house suddenly breaks, it is considered an auspicious sign. Broken glass indicates that the coming crisis has now been averted and your family is now completely safe. The breaking of the mirror indicates that some old reason for dispute at home is about to end. According to Vastu, after glass breaks, it should be thrown out of the house immediately. There is a belief that breaking of glass means breaking of the troubles coming upon us. Broken glass is often seen as an omen of good luck. Broken glass is often a sign of release or freedom, and is likewise often a sign of good things coming your way.

It is believed that by keeping broken glass in the house, positive energy goes out of the house and negative forces start entering the house. Broken glass kept in the house brings with it many problems. If glass suddenly breaks in the house, it should be quietly thrown out of the house. People have different opinions regarding breaking glass. Some people believe that if a glass, mirror or any glass object breaks on an auspicious occasion, it is a very bad omen. While some people believe that breaking of glass is auspicious and indicates some good news. If the glass of the window or door of the house breaks or there is a crack in it, then it is not considered a bad omen but it is auspicious. Such an incident indicates that you may get good news or arrival of money.

Once the glass is broken, it should be immediately removed from the house and thrown out. Many times it happens that people throw broken glass pieces in some corner of the house. Doing so can be harmful because there is negative energy inside the broken glass piece. Therefore, throw it out of your house as soon as possible.


Many people say that when a mirror suddenly breaks in the house, it not only brings trouble but also makes the person financially weak. If you keep that broken glass piece in your house, your financial condition will start deteriorating further. You will start incurring continuous losses in business. Due to breaking of glass, relationships between family members get spoiled. There seems to be a stressful environment all the time. Fights start happening between them over small issues. This problem takes a terrible form in those houses where all the people live together. People forget their mutual brotherhood and become jealous of each other. If a mirror breaks, it also indicates that someone is going to die. You may hear the news of the death of someone from your relative or family. Apart from this, someone in the house may also suffer from serious illness. Broken glass never brings with it a good message. Glass is not only used to see one’s reflection but nowadays most glass utensils are also used for eating food. Due to modernization taking place in the society, people now prefer to eat in glass utensils only. Sometimes when a plate or other utensil gets slightly broken, people think that we can use it now because it is only slightly broken, whereas it is completely wrong to do so. Broken glass carries household troubles, so whether it is slightly broken or completely broken, it should be immediately removed from your house and thrown in the dustbin.
