  1. Lore of Certain Days

    Share Share Post
    In my district some days are counted to be lucky and more unlucky. Monday is counted the luckiest day of the week for starting anything. The day of the week for changing from one place to another is Friday. If the weather is very dry round holy week it is said that anything planted on Good Friday is sure to grow. Saturday is a day that you never start anywork because if you do not finish it that day it never would be complete. Some count Wednesday a great day for getting married.
