  1. The Lore of Certain Days

    Share Share Post
    Unlucky Days
    Saturdays are thought to be unlucky days as if to begin new work as it is said that you would be at for seven Saturdays. People do not give out money on Monday as it is said that they would be giving it out again for the week. Other people would not throw out the ashes as it is said that they would be throwing out their luck on Monday morning.
