[HokusPokusButBetterNotRiskingIt]

Inspired by not doing washing on NYD, superstitions thread! Big and small, all are welcome.

Please, do say where they are from as well approximately.
No rude exclamations of how stupid these or people keeping these are, please.

I will start😁
Born in Central European country, we (generally, but most people I know) don't sweep or taking rubbish out on Christmas Eve to not to sweep away or take out our luck accidentally with the rubbish.
Great discussion ensued about robot hooversbeing allowed or not. Did not risk it so Eufy had day off too.
And no hanging washing, or someone you know might die that year, so all is put away on 23rd evening.

NYD needs small things like rice, lentils so more of tiny bits you eat for lunch, the more money the year will bring. (lentils/rice/wheat etc representing coins basically)
NYD no hanging washing, so no washing to not bring grief.

Never cross hands with anyone when cheering with glasses. Death will come between. I very much keep that.

If it's nice clear weather on Epiphany, wheat harvest will be excellent.

No shoes on the table.
Don't open an umbrella inside.
If you give a purse or wallet empty it will stay that way.
If you give knives you have to get a penny in return.
Don't walk under ladders.
Don’t cut your nails on a Sunday.
Break your egg shell to stop witches using them as a boat to fairy isle.
Don’t wear green to a wedding.
If you spill salt you have to throw a pinch over your shoulder into the devil’s eye.
If you pass a red headed woman on your way to go fishing you might as well go home as you’ll not catch anything that day.
Don’t have peacock feather in the house.
It’s bad luck to bring anything into the house for a baby before it’s born.
