Pappas writes: “Remember confirmation bias? The belief that bad luck comes in threes is a classic example. A couple of things go wrong, and believers may start to look for the next bit of bad luck. A lost shoe might be forgotten one day, but seen as the third in a series of bad breaks the next.” What is Creator’s perspective on “bad luck comes in threes?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs263 views0 answers0 votesPappas writes: “According to folklore, breaking a mirror is a surefire way to doom yourself to seven years of bad luck. The superstition seems to arise from the belief that mirrors don’t just reflect your image; they hold bits of your soul. That belief led people in the old days of the American South to cover mirrors in a house when someone died, lest their soul be trapped inside.” What can Creator tell us about mirrors and the widespread belief in their hazards?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs247 views0 answers0 votes“Knock on wood.” Pappas writes, “This phrase is almost like a verbal talisman, designed to ward off bad luck after tempting fate: ‘Breaking that mirror didn’t bring me any trouble, knock on wood.’ The fixation on wood may come from old myths about good spirits in trees or from an association with the Christian cross. Similar phrases abound in multiple languages, suggesting that the desire not to upset a spiteful universe is very common.” What can Creator tell us about “knocking on wood?”ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs241 views0 answers0 votes“Cross your fingers.” Pappas writes: “Those wishing for luck will often cross one finger over another, a gesture that’s said to date back to early Christianity. The story goes that two people used to cross index fingers when making a wish, a symbol of support from a friend to the person making the wish. (Anything associated with the shape of the Christian cross was thought to be good luck.) The tradition gradually became something people could do on their own.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs202 views0 answers0 votes“Throwing salt over your shoulder.” Salt is thought to create a spiritual barrier that evil spirits cannot cross, or find difficult to cross. Many magicians and sorcerers use it to create “magic circles” with the thought that if they stay inside, they will be protected from the very demons they conjure. What can Creator tell us about the spiritual properties of salt, if any?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs258 views0 answers0 votes“Don’t step on a crack!” This is from artsandculture.google.com, an article entitled 18 Superstitions from Around the World: “As with mirrors, cracks—in the earth, on a sidewalk, or almost anywhere—have long been seen as portals to the realm of the supernatural, for both good and ill. To step on those cracks might be to invite or release unwelcome spirits into the world ready to do one harm.” What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs201 views0 answers0 votesSuperstitions may seem silly and innocuous at first glance, but some people worry about them a great deal. Some to the point of having genuine panic attacks if they discover they violated one. How does someone get in this state? Does subconscious mind control contribute? What can Creator tell us?ClosedNicola asked 2 years ago • Limiting Beliefs266 views0 answers0 votesEastern Europeans, it seems, have a much longer list of superstitions that concern them than those of the West. Does the fact these countries have been war-torn and decidedly less free have anything to do with this? A woman who came here from Ukraine twenty years ago, won’t use leftovers “because it’s pig food” even though she no longer has a pig, so leftovers end up in the garbage. She worries about knives left out because they foment discord when unsheathed. And anything used she purchases she leaves outside for “cleansing,” regardless of whether rain is in the forecast or not. As a result, more garbage is created when it inevitably rains. Yet there is simply no talking her out of any of these worries or practices.
