    Some people think that if they see one magpie it is a very bad sign and some very superstitious people would be afraid to go out all day after seeing one magpie.
    Another piseoge that is considered unlucky is meeting a red-haired woman first thing in the morning and some people would go in dread the rest of the day after meeting a red-haired woman.
