j6p Posted June 13, 2003 #1 Share Posted June 13, 2003 This is Friday the 13th....I live with a black cat and I will cross it's path....I'm going to break a mirror on purpose and I will walk under a ladder. I'll get back to you later to report the results of my experiment....maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schadeaux Posted June 13, 2003 #2 Share Posted June 13, 2003 (edited) Actually, j6p, I think it's the cat that has to cross your path. And don't forget to spill the salt. Oh, and if you get a chance, step on a crack and walk on a grave. Edited June 13, 2003 by schadeaux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlyte Posted June 13, 2003 #3 Share Posted June 13, 2003 I also have a black cat, and throw spilled salt over your left shoulder. There is also a full moon tomorrow. Time to get crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djdodo Posted June 13, 2003 #4 Share Posted June 13, 2003 I don't think that cats give bad luck and I agree with ((schadeaux)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlyte Posted June 13, 2003 #5 Share Posted June 13, 2003 I don't think cats give bad luck either, quite the opposite actually. I prefer not to fall prey to such superstitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Althalus Posted June 13, 2003 #8 Share Posted June 13, 2003 It is the American version of the myth that says black cats give you bad luck if they croos your path, whereas the English version says that if they cross your path it is god luck.

Althalus Posted June 14, 2003 #12 Share Posted June 14, 2003 Some Irish superstitions about Friday include: Hair should never be cut on a friday as it is the most unluckyest day of the week, no-one should begin a new journey on this day, or move house, or commence business, and even worse than all these is you should never bring a cat from one house to another on this day. The reason for all of this is that Adam and Eve were suppposed to have been expelled from the Garden of Eden on this day, also Christ was supposed to have been crucified on this day. Fairies are supposed to have great power on Friday, and if you speak ill of them, they will work evil magic on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kismit Posted June 14, 2003 #13 Share Posted June 14, 2003 Ohhh nooo Neen , girls have to cry out "Weeeeeeeeee!!!!!! MAGIC AND SUPERSTITION copyright 1968 Douglas Hill Published 1968 by the Hamlyn Publishing Group "Thirteen is especially unlucky terms of dinner parties, referring back to the Last Supper or the Norse feast: it is believed that one of the thirteen diners will die within a year. But the fear exists in every occurrence of the number. Throughout the western world people can still be found numbering their houses '12 1/2,' to avoid living in number 13. The state lotteries of France, Italy, and elsewhere never sell tickets with that number. Hotels and hospitals, and similar institutions, often have no room numbered thirteen; and many big hotels, like the new Cavendish Hotel completed in London in 1966, also have no thirteenth floor. Fear is also aroused if the thirteenth of the month falls on a Friday--in itself a notoriously unlucky day, largely by association with Good Friday."...... My Sister and her partner met on Good Friday the 13th .... I don't know if that's a good thing or not . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anirbas Posted June 15, 2003 #16 Share Posted June 15, 2003 Well I haven't read all the replies but I got some Friday 13th stories - well just two sorta - last night (Friday 13th) was of course the full moon as well - my cat was (who is black and white) was literally trying to climb the walls I really wish I'd had my camera ready! That was funny - and I say that Friday 13th is a lucky day cause 9 months ago yesterday my granny got to go to heaven! So someone tell me how is it unlucky!

j6p Posted June 15, 2003 Author #17 Share Posted June 15, 2003 Hello Anirbas, I like your positive thinking. Yes your Grand Mom is lucky to have a Grand Daughter like you, I'm sure she is looking at you with great pride at this very moment. My black and white cat is named Aphrodite, Ditty for short and I am trying to get her picture on this stupid computer with this stupid new camera that I just got but I can't figure the stupid instructions. Tina refuses to try to show me how to work it because every time she comes near me I snap her picture and it don't turn out, she said she don't like me today. Stupid electronics, stupid instructions. Ya'll have a nice day now, ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anirbas Posted June 16, 2003 #18 Share Posted June 16, 2003 thanks jp6 - I know that if I said it was an unlucky day I'd be selfish. She's having more fun than she has ever had before and granny had a rough life!She deserves the bliss of heaven!!! I'd love to see her and hug her once more - I long for it and my heart is shattered and broken into millions of pieces. But if I had the chance for that and it meant taking that (heaven) away from her even for a second I'd have to turn it down! On the other hand - Friday 13 will NEVER be the same for me again!
