How many years have superstitions been around?
Superstitions have been with humankind since we first became self aware. Many of the first superstitions came from a general lack of knowledge about simple cause and effect, natural cycles, and the way nature worked.
As a larger body of knowledge became available, superstitions became entrenched in the spiritual paths of humankind.
Even today, superstitions tend to be relegated to the list of curiosities of another group of people. We rarely think of our own superstitions as unfounded or silly, but we do think that way of the superstitions of others.

The name Kasha is of greek origin and it means "pure". But I don't think it's an unlucky name. But it kind of depends on whether you're looking at it from it's japanese meaning or it's greek meaning. In japanese it means "repulsive spirits" and is also a name for a class of demon in japanese folklore that steals and eats the corpses of people who have done bad things. However it is of greek origin not japanese so from there I suppose you can decide what you think. Does origin matter more or does meaning that is entirely separate from origin matter more?

How do you get rid of the evil eye?
The evil eye, or general bad luck can be warded using hand signals, talismans, amulets, spoken charms or full rituals depending on your personal traditions.
The hand signals include:
- making horns with your hand. Hold down the second and ring finger of your dominant hand with the thumb of the same hand extending the first and smallest fingers as horns.
- closing your fist with the tip of your thumb protruding from between your second and ring finger. This symbol is sometimes seen in charms worn as jewelry (an amulet) and commonly given to girl children as protection.
Both of these gestures are forms of phallic symbols, used by women or given to girl children because the feminine gender was thought to be weaker in their resistance to evil.
Talismans against the evil eye frequently took the form of an eye or concentric circles that formed a stylized eye. These still hang in some homes and can be seen painted on the hulls of sea-going ships in museums.
There are thousands of other items used as talismans and amulets not to mention spoken charms and rituals to ward against ill wished and bad luck, you can find entire books on the subject in your local library.
