Superstitions have always been companion of mankind.It is prevailing in almost all regions of the world. Here are some superstitious beliefs of my region

Tuesdays and fridays should be banned for all auspicious deeds

Seeing fire or a prostitute while going for a journey is considered omen whereas seeing a black cat, broom , or monkey is ill-omen

pregnant women should not travel during night as it will result in abnormalities in the new-born

Odd numbers especially 9 bring good luck while even numbers especially 6 and 8 bring bad luck

Entering home without bathing after having attended a funeral will bring mishaps

There are many others but no time to post. Likewise members please share your superstitious experiences

Walking under a ladder,breaking a mirror and a black cat crossing your path
are all signs of bad luck coming your way and bad things are happening in triplicates.
In the last two weeks my wife lost 2 good friends that died alone at home,She found
out trying to contact them and not getting replies.First one she brought her daughter
home and found the daughters elderly room mate on the floor and the other one last
night after she called the police after not being able to contact her long time friend.
She was found dead in bed. Now she is worried who the third one will be. I told her
not to believe in superstition.
