Are You Superstitious?
Kerry:
I voted "A little bit." I'm not really into all the Friday 13th and "knock on wood" stuff, but I do wear a talisman around my neck. I've been wearing it for over 20 years and would feel quite naked without it. I wear it specifically to ward off evil, so I guess that does make me a little superstitious, eh? ;) ::) It's in the shape of a stylised ankh. The main, vertical shaft is a double-terminating (a point at each end), clear rock crystal, set in silver, with green jade and red agate crystals forming the ankh's loop. I wear it on a silver chain. :D

I love the shape of the ankh. I think it's a very powerful symbol. It's been around for centuries. Milleniums even.
I must admit I "touch wood" quite often. Better safe than sorry I guess. There's something satisfying about it after I do it. Like I just insured myself from something awful happening later on down the road. :)

I,m not supersticious about friday the 13th as a whole. The only thing I won,t do is walk under a ladder or put new shoes on the table, or open an umbrella in the house. Black cats are lucky if they walk in front of you. Mind you I have a jet black cat and I havn,t won millions on the lottery yet lol.
