Spain has a lot of superstitions that are the same in much of the western world, such not breaking a mirror (they're expensive, you know) or not walking under a ladder (you never know what's at the top.

But there are some that are unique to Spain (or at least not familiar to those from English speaking countries) especially when it comes to drinking!

Poland has some lucky charms too. It is widely believed in Poland that if you see a chimney-sweep, you have to grab your button (hopefully you have one at that particular moment – on your clothes, bag, etc). According popular belief, it’s only by doing so that you will be guaranteed good luck.   Another widespread superstition in Poland is “knocking on wood”. If you want to succeed in something or are afraid of a sudden change of fortune, you could do worse than knock on wood to scare bad luck away. It is also quite popular to kick students who enter examination rooms and to blow one’s fingers for luck.  As regards bad luck, a popular superstition says that if a woman puts her handbag on the floor, she will have no money. It is also considered bad luck to have a wedding in May…

A Lucky Number

Don’t worry about reading a Top 13: in some countries, 13 is thought of as an unlucky number, but in Italy 13 is a lucky number.

2. An Unlucky Number

You may feel safe now about the number 13 in Italy, but watch out for the number 17 because for Italians it’s an unlucky number.

# data[].attributes.body
Spaniards believe that Tuesday 13th and not Friday 13th is an unlucky day (“On Tuesday 13th, don´t get married, nor board [a ship or plane]”). “Tuesday” (“Martes” in Spanish) is a word derived from the name of Mars, which in the Middle Ages was called “little evil” and meant violence, tension and aggression. Mars is the god of war, so Tuesday is ruled by Mars, the god of destruction, blood and violence. Additionally, legend said that the confusion of tongues at the Tower of Babel occurred on a Tuesday 13. Another common belief is that it brings bad luck to enter a room with a left foot. It is said that a lighter shouldn’t be shared among more than three people. A salt shaker should not be passed from hand to hand, instead it must be placed on the table for the other person to pick it up themselves. It is also believed that chimneys should always be capped or witches might climb down it. It is also recommended not to bring a used broom from your previous house to your new house, or it will bring misfortune. However, if you hear or see a cricket? Rejoice: That’s great luck!
