First of all, if a black cat runs across your path and then retraces his or her steps, it's actually good luck. But if a black cat starts to cross your path, but stops halfway and retraces, it's bad luck. And if a black cat runs in front of you, less than four feet away, you will not have bad luck. 1) If a black cat crosses your path, walk backward ten steps. 2) If a black cat crosses the road, turn around and walk backward until you get over the place the cat passed. 3) If a black cat crosses you path, spit on the ground and rub your foot through it and then walk backward five steps. 4) If a black cat crosses your path, go home and sit half an hour before returning to what you were doing.
