AMERICAN SUPERSTITIONS – PART III

7 – Breaking a mirror
It was long believed that a person’s reflection showed the soul and that to break the reflection was to harm the soul. So a person who breaks a mirror (and damages the reflection it gives) will have seven years of bad luck.

8 – The groom must not see the bride before the wedding
Among the many superstitions concerning the wedding ceremony is the custom that the groom must not see the bride before the wedding. To do so would be a sign of submission to her family.

9 – Taking the last piece of food
There is a superstition that warns us never to take the last piece of food on a plate. To do so means that we won’t marry, or if we are married, we may soon find ourselves unmarried again.
