According to popular belief, a sleeping person cannot be photographed. This is a bad omen that bodes well for a lot of trouble. What is the reason for this and what are the consequences? 
Photography removes the invisible border between reality and the other world
Why not take pictures of sleeping people?
In the 19th century, residents of European countries photographed dead relatives. In the pictures it seemed that these people were simply sleeping. Today, such photographs cause at least a feeling of bewilderment. Since then, a belief has developed: sleeping people cannot be photographed with a camera, since closed eyes mean that they are no longer alive. According to the sign, this promised a quick death.
There are other superstitions that can explain why sleeping people are better off not taking pictures.
- It is believed that photography removes the invisible border between reality and the other world. Thus, evil entities acquire the ability to penetrate into our dimension and at the same time greatly harm the person depicted asleep in the picture. It will be very difficult to get rid of these spirits in the future.
- If such a picture ends up in the hands of a bad person, he can steal a significant part of the life energy from the sleeping person.
- Our ancestors believed that during sleep the soul leaves the body and flies off to the other world. At this time, a person becomes completely defenseless. And if the sleeping person suddenly wakes up due to extraneous noise or a bright flash, then the soul will not have time to return. As a result, the person will lose their mind or become seriously ill.
- It is impossible to take pictures of sleeping people for one more reason: specialists in the field of bioenergy are sure that from such a picture, sorcerers and magicians can easily damage a person. For this reason, such photographs should not be shown to anyone, and it is better not to take them at all.
- It is highly undesirable to photograph a pregnant woman who is sleeping. According to signs, this can seriously harm the unborn child: bring on a serious illness or even death.
- Taking a photo of a person while sleeping can greatly scare the Guardian Angel. As a result, the soul of the sleeping person will remain without the protection of higher powers.
- According to another belief, if you take a picture of a person while sleeping, you can steal his soul.
Folk omens explain in detail why it is impossible to take a picture of a person who is sleeping. If you want to get an original photo, just take a photo with your eyes closed. The main thing is that this does not happen during sleep.
Babies under 40 days old do not have a Guardian Angel yet
Why can't you take pictures of sleeping children?
Both superstitious people and bioenergetics agree that photographing sleeping children is strictly prohibited.
The child's protective aura is not yet sufficiently formed, and therefore such a picture can seriously harm him.
- Babies who have not turned 40 days from the moment of birth do not yet have a Guardian Angel, and they are absolutely defenseless against both evil spirits and people with an evil eye.
- Children become especially vulnerable during sleep. As the signs say, any person is able to take energy from the baby, and often this happens unconsciously: just look at the picture.
- The child can become very sick. It is worth noting that this superstition is quite justified: if the baby during the rest hears the click of the camera and gets scared, he may start to stutter. There are cases when children, after a strong fright, have serious problems with speech, the ability to speak in general.
As you can see, all the signs tend to the same opinion: it is impossible to photograph a sleeping person. And even if we omit superstition and consider the situation from the point of view of morality, then here you can also find reasons not to do so. After all, if a person did not give you their permission to do this, after seeing the photo, he can be very upset and, as a result, interrupt communication with you.
