Superstitions are like that advice from your grandmother – sometimes they seem ridiculous, but you're also afraid to ignore them. Many people grow up with beliefs that, although they seem like nonsense, are deeply ingrained in their minds. Below you will read some of these "golden rules" that people say they inherited from their grandmothers and that they still take seriously to this day.
1. "Whenever you lose something like your keys or phone, smell your right palm. It instantly jogs your memory and you find what you were looking for. 30+ years of life and it's always worked for me."
2. "If you are going to a new country to visit or live there, eat a raw onion that was grown in that country. You will never catch a flu or a disease that is circulating in that country."
3. "Do you want a dream to come true? Tell it to a fountain, a glass of water, a pool of water, whatever. If you want something to never come true, tell it to fire."
So, on our birthday cake, should we express something we don't want to happen to us?
4. "Dreaming about poop translates to money in reality. It's always been true for me."
5. "Keeping a metal object under your pillow means you never have bad dreams."
6. "If you crack an egg, remove the yolk, fill the entire empty space with salt, and eat it before going to sleep, without washing your mouth, you will dream about the person you will marry. I had a dream about a tall man in a blue shirt, but no face. A year later I met my current husband who was wearing the exact same blue shirt. We have been married for 10 years."
7. "Washing your feet before going to bed eliminates any nightmares you may have been having lately."
8. "My mom was told by her grandmother that the moon is a source of beauty and at night, especially when the moon is full, you should look at it and say out loud: 'I want the moon, I don't want acne' for crystal clear skin. My mom says it worked for her."
9. "Clothes colors to avoid by day: Monday - red, black; Tuesday - green, white; Wednesday - yellow, red; Thursday - blue, black; Friday - green, red; Saturday - red, yellow; Sunday - black, white. I didn't believe it at first, but my days became more positive after I applied these 'rules'."
Meanwhile, those who wear only black:
10. "Mine is boring, but my grandma used to tell me to wear lipstick if I wanted to feel confident. It always works for me."
11. "If you dream that your teeth are falling out or breaking, someone will die. It's actually happened to me 3 times."
12. "If you dream that you are walking down, or moving down in an elevator and you are accompanied by a group of friends/people, it is a sign that you should cut ties with them. If you see that you are climbing up in one way or another, you have made friends for the wrong reasons."
13. "Always smell good - this makes your sign in Venus very happy. When Venus is happy, life becomes happy, the love aspect too and attracts more luxury and luck into life."
14. "When a baby hiccups, tear a thread from a random piece of clothing and place it on the baby's head. The hiccups stop."
15. "Not exactly a superstition: When you leave the house, say something stupid as you close the door, something you wouldn't normally say, and that way when you're wondering whether to close the door or not, you'll remember that you said that stupid thing and make sure you locked the door."
Finally, something that doesn't make all scientific explanations look like this:
