An old superstition says to turn one of your shoes upside down if your sleep is disturbed by a barking dog
Not unless you are an idiot. A horse's hoof is shaped like the shoe. Putting a horse's shoe on backwards is like putting your own shoe on the wrong foot.
Toe down and heels up so that the luck doesn't run out.
A Horse Shoe?
a horse would throw a shoe when it hasn't had its feet checked by the farrier in six weeks. the nails in the shoe would get loose and if the horse galloped around and stepped on a hard surface the shoe could fall off.
It is called a horse shoe.
No, a horse shoe is hung with the tail up to hold the luck within. An "upside-down" horseshoe isn't bad luck, it just doesn't hold good luck. My father used to put horseshoes upside down over doorways to drop the goodluck inside them upon whom ever passed through the doorway.
A horse shoe is traditionally hung with the ends up. This is to hold or keep the luck in. Hanging a horse shoe with the open side down is not so much bad luck as it is to let your luck run out.
A hores shoe hung over the door in a U shape is supposed to be good luck but an upside down one is bad luck.
The superstition is that if you hang a horseshoe upside down, your household's luck will pour out of the opening and drain away; whereas if you hang it right side up (with the opening at the top) the luck will collect and be available as needed.
Whatever you can think of! Use your imagination and look for as long as you like. I think it looks like a horse's head yet my friend thinks its an upside-down shoe. Take a look and think........................
Yes unfortunately but if you put it up then all the luck is kept in! Put it on your door to ward off evil spirts
This would depend on how the term was used. If you mean ' the horse threw a shoe.' that would mean the horse lost it's shoe somehow. If it was ' the horse threw the rider.' it means the horse lost it's rider somehow. It can also mean the horse 'threw' a foal ( gave birth/sired a foal). There are many meanings to this term, depending on how it was used.
A horse's shoe is called a horseshoe. A horse's foot is called a hoof.
It means losing a horse shoe.
