Superstitions

Yes they are

yes

If you put an article of clothing on backward or inside out, it is bad luck to take it off and put it back on correctly. Either wear it as it is or take it off and wear something else.

Letting another woman try on or wear your wedding ring will encourage your husband to stray.

You can determine the gender of a baby if you suspend the mother's wedding ring by one of her hairs over her belly. If the ring moves clockwise it will be a boy, if it mover counterclockwise it will be a girl.

Probably because it's not very common for a baby to be born and a person to die at the same time. In the same household.

I don't think so. If you are planning to buy an owl it is your choice of course. I've never heard of that before anyway.

It was believed that trees had spirits and to invoke those spirits you would tap on the tree, "knock on wood".

The practice tended to be a way to ask the spirits to intervene and save you from a bad out come (bad luck). This is why when you say something you do not want to come about you "knock on wood."

i dont believe it because its only a superstition it might be a fact or just a lie

No.

When you say something that has never happened then mostly chinese will say touch wood for bad things never happened so far

The Blarney stone is a piece of folk lore and myth situated at the top of the Blarney castle.

To complete the ritual, you have to climb to the top of the castle and lean backward over the parapet.

These days there are hand holds and safety devices, but in the "old days" you did this with a trusted friend holding your legs.

You must kiss the stone in this precarious position, for which you are granted the gift of eloquence and persuasion.

If someone says you must have kissed the Blarney Stone as a turn of phase, they are saying you have the "gift of gab" and/or the ability to flatter.

in the novel the characters depended on the great Tano god for solutions when they had problem.

firstly barreness were we saw the great god tano answered koramoa prayer and persistence sacrifices to the god for a child and these made the people believe much in the god without noticing that they were just lesser gods.they never thought of the greater God onyankopon.

also we saw another character pokuwaa devoted much of her time and energy performing sacrifices to the god for child bearing and because some of the characters had their prayers answered by the god they others also turned their attention on the god and someone of them was blessed with child whiles other were not blesssed but rather deceived.

secondly when the wawa tree was raging with fire the elders had a meeting and their first thought was pacification to the gods whereby every house hold prepared food and took it to the Tano house and ate there having the believe that the god fed through them.

also on Akwasidae they believe that no one should visit the stream of which if one had no water in the house the person had to wait for the next day and when Pokuwaa visited the stream on that day she escaped an eagle attack which killed a Hornbill and she brought the Hornbill home and her mom told her it was a taboo because she believed it was the food of the god and she had to returned in back and later performed rites to her daughter by cooking yam for her which she needed to eat all .

thirdly last friday of every 6 weeks people visited the Tano house for sacrifices for answers to their problem and items like eggs, sheep and goat etc where brought depending on the sizes of problem each person had

moreover when you maltreat a fetish child it likely the god take back their children from you and that was their believe so such children were not maltreated.

Also widows dropped their pot the final burial of their husbands and run home without looking their back signifying that the bond they had with the dead person on earth was over and these was the practice every widow practiced.

These superstition was so influencing in their lives that they even failed to realised that there was one supreme God only Pokuwaa did by giving up all her sacrifices she had to do and placed all her hopes on God and she ended up in a great result by bearing a child.

indeed superstition had a great effect in the lives of the characters in a woman in her prime.

i think a long time ago people thinked that 13 was a bad luck number

While there are no listed superstitious beliefs about Milena Velba available, some of her fans may have made up some about her. Milena is known for her considerably large breasts which she says are completely real.

It means you'll be fairly miserable.

I know a lot of superstitions but i've never heard of this one being one, but to answer your question i would say NO because i would see that as a good thing for someone to ask you to be their godparent!

No this is an old superstition. But in many types of mythology like Irish and Aboriginal, the crow is associated with death. :)

There may be a small possibility that the glass was moved by poltergeist activity. When the glass was moved, the move put the glass in an unstable position, causing it to fall and break.

That you are extremelly lucky!

that is because they are cautious about themselves and do not want anyone to know.

A large portion of Americans (some estimate greater than 75%) believe that if they close their eyes for a minute and whisper to themselves every day, then after dying, they will be lifted up into a magical kingdom in the sky to live for eternity.

Many Americans will insist that AIDS is caused by gays and drugs are the spawn of 'Satan', an evil being who lives deep beneath the Earth's surface and takes pleasure in luring people away from the magical sky kingdom.
