Have you heard the superstition that says not to do the wash on New Years Day, because then a relative will be washed away within a few months (in other words die)?
You must know the superstition that says the first person who walks into your home after the stroke of midnight on New Years will be the most influential person of that year to you! Or perhaps my favorite: the superstition that tells us to open all of the windows and doors in our homes to let the old year out.
Perhaps some of you will be sage brushing at the stroke of midnight. Sage brushing is burning the sage plant to smoke out bad spirits from a room or area. I know that many of you will kiss your lover to guarantee another year together. Reality is it is very superstitiously important to spend time on the eve and day of the New Year with your most loved people. On the other hand, superstition also tells us to carve out some time for work on New Years Day, as it guarentees prosperity for the New Year.
My friend Xavier says that every year at the stroke of midnight he takes all of the cash in his pocket and gives it a big wet kiss! According to Xavier, every year since doing this routine, he's become more prosperous. He's aquired more property and gotten more job opportunities. His superstition has worked for him.
Have your superstitions worked for you? If you don't have a superstition already then get one!! Try it out - what could go wrong? Just dont break a mirror!
