St. Patrick’s Day Superstitions

Have you ever noticed how some people are lucky while others aren’t? If you are one of the many individuals that always seems to be down on their luck, maybe all of that will change come St. Patrick’s Day. Here’s how to have the luck of the Irish and avoid bad stuff from happening.

Be Careful Not To Drop Anything. March 17th isn’t the time to drop stuff. If something falls out of your hand, it means that someone unexpected is coming to visit you and that’s not always a good thing. So, on this day, it might be a good idea to try to avoid holding things.

Get A Moonlit Haircut. Cutting your hair is okay, but it needs to be done under the moonlight. Once the haircut is complete, don’t give a lock of hair to your romantic partner as you will just be bringing them some bad luck.

Take Precautions When Going Fishing. St. Patrick’s Day may seem like the perfect time to go fishing, but you need to take some precautions. Don’t change your boat’s name, no matter how much you don’t like it. You can bring fruit on board, but definitely not bananas.

Watch Out For Black Cats. You may be faced with the dilemma of a black cat crossing your path. Fortunately, there is something you can do. Make a triangle with your fingers and spit. Be careful not to get any spit on the cat as you’d probably just make him mad and then you’d have a whole other set of problems to deal with.

Put Cinnamon Sticks In Your Wallet. If you are looking to gain wealth and prosperity, put cinnamon sticks in your wallet. It’s important to keep them near your money in order to bring about some monetary luck in your life.

Do The Right Thing With Your Shoes After A Party. With St. Patrick’s Day falling on a Saturday this year, it means that you will probably be attending a party or two. Afterwards, tie a telephone wire around your shoes. Supposedly it will bring you good luck.

Don’t Give Anyone A Knife. It’s considered bad luck to give a knife to anyone on March 17th, even if it’s just to borrow. It signifies ending a friendship. If someone does happen to ask you for a knife, don’t hand them one. Instead, set it on a table or counter so that they can pick it up themselves.

Burn Sage. You can keep evil spirits out of your home by burning sage. It will hard off misfortune and get rid of negative energy.
