While individuals by and large see superstitions as something funny nowadays, it is astounding that a number of us still hit on wood to keep away from bad luck, cross our fingers for luckiness, or try not to walk under the ladder. Here are 5 superstitions related to death and dying, which are still prevalent and many of us still believe in. It depends on you whether you choose to believe in them or not.
Birds Are Bad Omens • Since birds can move between earth and sky without much effort, people have since quite a long ago seen our flying companions as a connection between the real and the spiritual world. However, there are countless superstitions focused on birds as the connection with death. In many cultures, a bird flying into a home, and then sitting on the back of a seat, is viewed as a sign of death for somebody in the family.
Funerals Should Not Be Attended By Pregnant Women • Various societies have this superstition among them, and, even nowadays, you can find many literate people who follow this superstition or have doubts about it that whether it’s true or an old belief. Some clarifications go for fear that the soul of the dead will possess the unborn. In some cultures it is believed that if pregnant women attend a funeral, then the chances of miscarriage increase.
While Passing A Cemetery – You Should Hold Your Breath • Just like the superstition that we should cover our mouths with hands while yawning in order to stop the soul from leaving our body, holding your breath while you’re passing a cemetery probably stops the spirits from entering your body. Apart from holding breath, in some cultures, people avoid stepping on cracks on the road while walking in or near a cemetery.
Thunder After Funeral Means That The Soul Has Entered The Other World • In Christian mythology, it is believed that if there’s a thunderstorm after the funeral, then it’s a sign that the deceased has entered the heave. In some other cultures, if a thunderstorm follows a funeral, then it is believed that the soul of the deceased is some warm place in the other realm.
Flowers Grow On The Graves Of Good People • In many cultures where burial is common and widespread, people believe that flowers grow quite quickly on the graves of people who were good and kind-hearted while they were alive in this world.
Whether you believe in these superstitions or not –it’s not important at all. What’s important is that you have knowledge about funeral cover that assures financial support for your loved ones after your death.
