Bad Luck Good Luck
Everyone has heard of the common good luck, bad luck superstitions. A four leaf clover is good luck while a black cat is bad luck, but what are some things that bring you luck that are not as common?
Bad Luck
Looking over your left shoulder to see a new moon
Three butterflies flying together
Cutting your nails on Friday
Putting a hat on a bed
A five leaf clover
A bat flying into your house
Hearing a rooster at night
Putting on a shirt inside out
Red and white flowers together
Giving away a wedding present
Violets blooming out of season
Opening an umbrella indoors
A picture falling
Crossed knives
Seeing an owl during daytime
Wearing an opal, unless you were born in October
Breaking a plate
Receiving a mirror as a present, and breaking a mirror
Spilling ink
Breaking a glass bottle
Throwing stones into the ocean
Sitting on a table without at least one foot touching the ground
Starting a cruise on a Friday
Spilling pepper.. and salt
Some of those are kind of ridiculous but they still amuse me. It seems like there are a lot of things that cause you bad luck, but are there as many things that can give you bad luck?
Good Luck
Sneezing three times before breakfast
Spilling wine when making a toast
Four leaf clover
Meeting three sheep
Nine peas in a pod
A robing flying into your house
Sleeping facing South
Walking in the rain
Hearing crickets
Scissors hanging on a hook
A ladybug landing on you
Cutting your hair during a storm
Picking up a pencil on the street
Carrying an acorn on you
Dolphins swimming near a ship
Sleeping on un-ironed sheets
A horseshoe
Putting on a dress inside out
Looking at new moon over your right shoulder
I found more bad omens than good, but there are still quite a few things that can bring you good luck. Some of them are random, but I guess that's why they bring you good luck or bad luck. They are things that do not happen too often and things that a lot of people don't even think twice about.
