8) Sharp objects or tools
Knives, scissors, needles, trade tools (hammer, scalpel, instruments).
Sometimes this is done for “protection” or to represent identity (“he was a carpenter, let him have his tools”). But the soul is not defended with metal: it is accompanied by prayer.
9) Letters and notes “for them to read”
Many people write farewells, apologies, or final messages and place them inside. It’s understandable… but true communication isn’t on paper, but through prayer, remembrance, and acts of love.
If you have unfinished words, you can whisper them in front of the coffin or at the cemetery, and transform them into prayer: that has more spiritual meaning than burying a message.
10) Esoteric or occult objects
Talismans, runes, zodiac signs, “protections,” red thread, “charged” objects, amulets bought from supposed “healers.”
This is incompatible with the Christian faith and can bring spiritual confusion. Saying goodbye doesn’t need “magical defenses”: it needs faith, respect, and prayer.
