From choosing lucky numbers to not getting a haircut on Wednesdays, most of us have come across or even observe a few superstitions, whether we believe them or not. 

For example, it’s considered bad luck in Chinese culture to gift someone a timepiece as it represents… well, that the clock is ticking and your time is almost up. 

In most Asian cultures it’s also considered bad luck to gift your partner a pair of shoes, because they might walk out of your life. Another interpretation is that if a couple is dating but not living together, they are cursed to part ways, because shoes need to be in a pair.

And who doesn’t know about the ominous ‘Friday the 13th’? The unlucky number 13 is so dreaded in Western culture that most buildings omit the 13th floor and airports in Western countries don’t have a 13th gate.

However, according to Spanish tradition, it’s not Friday the 13th that’s scary but Tuesday the 13th. Cubans who believe in this superstition would never plan significant events on this date to avoid getting jinxed.

There are measures to ward off bad luck though. 

If you accidentally break a mirror, you can place the shards under running water to wash the seven years of bad luck away.

The ‘evil eye’ charm is used across many different cultures around the world, including Asian, Arab, Jewish and Mexican cultures to ward off the true ‘evil eye’ – a curse transmitted through a malicious glare, usually out of envy. 

And just like some numbers bring you bad luck, some numbers can turn your fortune around.
