It is not very much a superstition..I think. Astrology, maybe it is like a sort of a superstition. I follow the Zodiac. I guess that is alittle supertitious when you beleive the whole thing and it always works. But, its sort of cool to have something to look to (I am not so religious at all, so the Zodiac is almost like a 'Bible' to me..only I am not an anal-religious ._.;; )

Nope, I never bought into any of that. I never understood how people could follow Astrology either.

Well not so much that I follow it to the word. . . but many things that describe my Zodiac year are so much like me in some ways..the people born in the Zodiac years I would most get along with are alot like the people that I like the best. A couple of other things. . .Zodiac things are a little bit more of an Asian culture thing. We are alot more big with it, and alot more of the people take it seriously. I just like the coincidences..it is too uncanny so I wouldn't let it slide by ^^

Zodiac is Greek. It comes from the term Zoon which means "Animal". The Chinese and Vedic systems are very different.

Nah, I'm not really superstitious. I've never believed in zodiak signs, nor do I think black cats are bad luck, or that the 13th day of a month landing on a Friday is going to automatically mean bad. It doesn't make any sense.

The last time some one asked me if I was superstitious I threw my black cat at their face...It was one of the meanest cats I had ever owned. It's name was Shadow. It was actually only second meanest to my other cat Jay, who went around on a neighborhood killing spree and slaughtered like all the cats in my neighborhood. I loved Jay.

If you don't believe me ask Legault. Dracoon might know about it too.

Have a nice day.

I don't believe in superstitions that much. My neighbor has a black cat but I passed a huge exam.
But I believe some superstitions that lead to manners.


What I think is, people remember stuff better when there are more connections to memories. Same thing with feelings.
So, if you believe in a superstition, when a bad/good thing happens,
you find a connection with the superstition which makes you feel as if it was true.

If that helped the discussion...

I'm not really superstitious...but still, if I see the number 13, it'll jump out at me. Not because I fear it, just because it's sort of a famous number now.

I don't believe most of it, but I still do some of it. Not sure why. (Walking under ladders should be a given, though. )
