All I remember is...
If you pass a cemetery don't talk or walk on the graves
Sleeping across from mirror is bad luck
and that's all I can remember for now ninja

What about the holding your breathe thing.
That's a common cemetary myth.

Here's a question, is superstition and Feng Shui essentially the same in application?
IMHO, a rose by any other name... is still a rose. 3nodding

` T a p i o c a ` My parents say a lot of superstiotions to me o.O;;
1 - 4 , 6, 9 is a bad word in cantonese.
2 - Tis bad luck to play around with brooms, cos brooms have spirits in them
3 - Tis also bad luck to play around with the mirror - shining it
4- When having periods do not sit on tables, your brother's bed etc. Or it'll make the thing you sat on very unholy
5 - Don't play any woodwind instrument at night, or spirits will come to your house
6 - Eat every grain of rice/piece of food in your bowl or the person you marry in future would be ugly
7 - Do not open lei xi in front of the person that just given you the lei xi
I could go on and on with all these superstitions that I hardly follow =] Lol same here ^^ I have one more to add 1. You should eat ever grain of rice in your bowl or the leftover grains will be the amount of insects you eat in your next life. That was the version i heard from my mom..i forgot to add that in to my messenge last time so yea razz

1. You should eat all the grains of rice in your bowl. The number of grains left is the number of pimples that will be on your bride's/husband's face. (<-- that's the version I heard)
2. No cleaning while celebrating New Year's (sweeping the good luck away)

nono.. 164 = yi lu si... (dying along the road)
here's some other superstitions:
- do not keep staring at a cementry grave (unless u are paying ur respects)... you will have bad luck... and the soul may haunt you...
- if the dog howls or have teary eyes.. it means they have seen a ghost.
- if you dream that your tooth fell, it means someone close to you will pass away...
- if u dream of a snake holding tightly, it means u will meet your soulmate
- sleeping across something reflective causes bad luck or bad health
- black cats crossing the street in front of you cause bad luck.
- never point at the moon.. bad luck...
- Clipping toenails or fingernails at night is bad luck; the person will be visited by a ghost.
- It is bad luck to have two room doors face each other. (feng shui)
- Couples with the same surname cannot marry; even if they are not related, they still belong to the same ancestry.
- A baby with wide and thick ears will live prosperously.
- A baby with more than one hair crown will be mischievous and disobedient. (this one is very true xD)
- do not give perfume as a present to your bf/gf - it leads to a breakup (this is what my thai friend told me.. and so far it's kinda true.. )
- do not give a clock as a present as well... for it means u are telling the person to die.. and his 'time' is up...

I'm not very superstitious, but readings the ones listed above, makes me feel fascinated, though i have heard most of them. whee Quote: - do not give perfume as a present to your bf/gf - it leads to a breakup (this is what my thai friend told me.. and so far it's kinda true.. ) Apparently,thats because the perfume scent will attract someone else cool Makes sense?
