We all have that one or two people in our lives who would lose their mind if we do something that they consider inauspicious. It's the ingrained mindset of getting into trouble, losing our luck or some other disastrous occurrence if we don't follow our daily routine or something that we consider inauspicious hinders it. That one superstitious friend has a solution to all the negative vibes and somehow now you can also relate to them.

If next time you see a black cat crossing the road and it automatically makes you change your direction you have adapted to their beliefs well and good.
