No matter if we admit it or not, most human beings are superstitious to some degree.
- We cross our fingers when we tell a "fib";
- Wish on falling stars or the first star we see at night;
- Wish on birthday candles;
- Tell young children there is a Santa Claus, and Easter Bunny and a tooth Fairy; - Toss a few grains of spilled salt over our left shoulders, just in case;
- Black cats are either loved or vilified depending on where you live;
If you really want to see superstitions at work, check out your local (or national) sports teams.
Lucky shirts, socks, rituals abound in sports.
Or take a close look at the wedding practices of your culture, each culture has lists of things the bride (and sometimes the groom) can not or must do to ensure the success of the marriage.
