Not a superstition per se, but I'm pretty sure something terrible would happen to me if I wore white sandals after Labor Day.0

"If i eat more than 1200 I gain"0

Hat on the bad = bad luck

I don't really believe them but I have to throw salt over my shoulder when it spills. And I do try and avoid black cat crossings0

Ones I know are...
Never put shoes on the table.
Never walk under a ladder.
Never open umbrella indoors.

I always put my shoes on my coffee table when I get home! I don't feel like taking them to the closet yet, and if I put them on the floor, my dog will chew them!0 -
As a coach, I make sure and wear the same game gear all the time if we win. I even try to eat the same foods, and fill out my book and stuff the same way. Maybe that's anal and not superstitious? LOL0

My mom always said
Don't put new shoes on the bed (or any other place besides the floor)
If a broom falls it means someone is coming for a visit. I believe, depending on which way it faces means male or female.0 -
I gave up on the black cat crossing when I adopted two black cats... :grumble:0

I was always told that if you sit your purse on the floor you would always be broke (What one has to do with the other I've never quite figured out)...This was drilled into me when I was growing up...
To this day I will do a power dive across the room to catch my purse if someone tries to sit it on the floor!!! LOL :drinker:
I have not heard this one but now know why I am so broke all the time and need to find a better place for my purse here at work, lol.0 -
knock on wood = if you say something that hasn't came true and you don't want it to
black cat crossing in front of you = bad luck
shoes on a table = bad luck
full moon = weird things happen
heads up penny = good luck
if you leave the house and have to go back because you forgot something = bad luck
opening an umbrella indoors = bad luck
killing a spider = will make it rain
killing a black cricket = bad luck
empty fortune cookie = bad luck
walking under a ladder = bad luck
spill salt = bad luck if you don't throw some over your shoulder
Other weird things:
if your left hand itches = you're going to recieve money
if your right hand itches = you're going to have to pay a large sum of money
if your nose itches some is thinking about you
if your ears ring someone is talking about you
I'm sure I have more.. and yes part of me believes these. But then when I write them down they sound like hocus pocus. Either way, I'm still not setting my shoes on the table or going back to the house if I forgot something.0 -
Step on a crack and break your mama's back
If you frown alot your face will stay that way
Rub a rabbit's foot for good luck
Don't put your purse or wallet on the floor cuz you'll be poor (I live by this one)0 -

I have a lot of Italians in my family that say that.0 -
Nose itching = someone is coming for a visit
Thunder when snow is on the ground = More snow
If the black cat one is true I'm screwed, three live under my roof!

I heard if you take care of them thats good luck, so your good!0 -
I'm originally from Missouri and I remember as a kid my mom wouldn't let us count the cars in a funeral procession. A couple more superstitions not mentioned yet are a ladybug is good luck and if an inch worm is crawling on you it means you will get a new piece of clothing.0
