Superstition is a belief in supernatural
causality: that one event leads to the
cause of another without any physical
process linking the two events, such
as astrology, omens, witchcraft, etc.,
that contradicts natural sciencen
There are two kinds of superstitions origin:
+ Superstitions mind-seek: People seek something that too his
ability to generate superstition.
+ Superstitions fear : Fear is the original born superstition.
In the same manner life is influenced by the belief in
superstitions. Whether people are conscious of it or not,
faith in superstitions is invisibly present in their behavior
and decisions. Either way, one thing is for certain,
superstitions do have quite a significant power over us.
Some of the more common superstitions are of course the near certainty
that seeing a black cat is a sign of bad luck. Heaven forbid you should
carelessly cause a mirror to break because if you do, you'll be cursed
with seven years of bad luck. In North America, the number 13 is avoided
at all costs. On Friday the 13th is an unlucky day.
Most of them see the black cat as a shape-shifter which is
capable of transforming into a witch or some sort of demon.
Breaking a mirror
7 YEARS OF BAD LUCK
Superstition has it that if you break a mirror you will receive 7 years of bad luck.
I have seen friends, acquaintances, and neighbors who are affiliated
with another religion or are atheists going out of their way to avoid
that ladder. Could it have become such a widespread habit that the
reason is no longer questioned?
Not walking under a ladder sounds a lot like common sense. If
either the ladder or person on it were to fall, of course anything
directly under the ladder would become an unfortunate target.
What do you do when you're watching the weekly lottery numbers
being drawn on TV? Or how about when you're anxiously awaiting
the hopefully positive results of some exam or test? I'll bet that
whether you realize it or not you're probably crossing your fingers.
This seems to be the most widespread sign of good luck.
Knock on wood. Why do we knock on wood? It seems awfully strange
to knock on wood after announcing one's good health. By knocking on
wood, while at the same time saying, "Knock on wood," we are
apparently avoiding a jinx as well as calling upon the good spirits of the
wood to protect us. From the olden times, people of various
backgrounds and walks of life have thought the forests and other parts
of nature to contain spirits. So it's no surprise that people continued to
worship these spirits even after they were taken from their original
environment and converted into objects like tables, desks, and
shelves.
Many people still believe, when they see a shooting star,
your wish will come true.
Say "God bless you" to someone who has just sneezed, and
covering your mouth and nose are good way of keeping your luck
positive.
Some people believe that a four leaf clover can bring you lots
of good luck. The Irish have a tradition that says if someone
find one by accident they will have good luck. Only one in
10,000 have four leaves. They stand for: Faith, Hope, Love,
and Luck. The green hills of Ireland have more four-leaf
clovers than anywhere else, or so the Irish say. From that
come the saying, "luck of the Irish."
Belief in superstitions may have both positive and negative
effects on our lives.

temple, go to church for security.

cure is better to go to the hospital.
Superstition to disrupt family happiness, happiness of men and woman.
As you can see there is an endless supply of superstitions, both good and
back - ones that are taken seriously and others that are laughed at. But one
thing is for certain, most people can't go about their daily lives without
encountering superstitious thoughts and actions on some level.
Although superstitions are completely erroneous, it is proven that the positive
power of mind and prayers can improve the probability of success in your life.
So make sure, your life is filled with positive energy, thoughts and behaviors,
as those ridiculous superstitions have no logical basis whatsoever.
