Art journal week 13 Superstitions

week13SuperstitionSml

Well now I am catching up slowly but surely on the ukstampers weekly art journal page challenges.  Week 13 is about superstitions and this sparked off a great debate at home with hubby Harry and my mum.  Are we or are we not superstitious?  No we don’t think that anything bad will happen to you if you break most of the superstitious rules except perhaps the logical ones like not walking under a ladder. Even though I have a lucky number it has never actually been lucky, it is just a number that I like.  Harry always says ‘morning my lord’ when he sees a magpie but that is just something he has done since childhood.  We all say ‘touch wood’ as we are trying to avoid tempting fate.
Harry was born on a Friday 13th.  I broke my back on a Friday 13th (unlucky I had an accident but very lucky as it could have been a whole lot worse!).
So are we superstitious?  Can you be mildly superstitious?

We had to include in our page:

  • are you superstitious and why/why not?
  • do you have any particular rituals
  • include a charm
