If you own a mirror
take good care of it
if you break it you will have seven years of bad luck
If someone asks you to pass the salt
be careful not to spill it
if you see a ladder in the street don't walk under the ladder
walk around it
if a car hits you on the road
It is probably because it is the thirteenth day of the month and most likely a FridayThese are all superstitions and mostly silly
Many superstitions started a very long time ago but people still believe them today
some of them are easy to understand
for example if you walk under a ladder the person working at the top of the ladder could drop something on youBut most are not so easy to understand if it is raining take an umbrella but don't open it inside the house And if you see a black cat keep your fingers crossed that nothing bad happens why?
