Good Luck Superstitions
Bless You; if your say "Bless you" when someone sneezes, it brings them good luck, when the Great Plague swept europe, violent sneezing was a sign of impending death,so the pope passed a law requiring people to bless the sneezer.
Knock on Wood; in the past people believed that good spirits lived in trees-and that by knocking on anything made of wood we could call on these spirits for protection against misfortune.
Four-leaf clover; finding a four leaf clover brings great luck,druids believed that plants helped them to see evil spirits.
Fingers crossed; the cross is the sign of the christian faith and is said to ward off evil spirits which could prevent your chance of good fortune.
