Even though lottery corporations are amongst the most regulated entities in the world, some people remain skeptical. A small percentage of lotto players believe that lotteries are, or could be, fixed. Could this really happen? Is there a lottery fix? If you are among the people that think that there is a lotto fix, ask yourself the following question: Why would they do that? Consider this - Worldwide lotteries bring in dozens of billions of dollars in revenue each and every year. If there was a fix and if that fix was discovered, people would lose their trust in lotteries and those billions of dollars worth of revenue would drop down to next to nothing. The lotteries would be out of business. Not only do lotteries need to maintain the trust and confidence of their customers, the players, but they also have to adhere to strict government regulations as to how it is run. Even the draws are witnessed by an unaffiliated firm, often an accounting firm. Even if they wanted to fix lotteries, they would have to have several people in on it. That's not easy to do. If people on the in approached other people on the in, there would sure be a whistle-blower with a conscience among them that would expose the plot. Are you still not convinced that lotteries are not fixed? Then ask yourself, seriously, why a lottery corporation would even want to do that? I bet that you will not be able to come up with a reasonable answer to that question. Sure, you might come up with some wacky answers, but none of those answers will be reasonable. The Lottery is not fixed. Elizabethan superstitions reflect the fears and beliefs of British citizens in the 1500s and early 1600s. The era is distinguished by a long period of peace, 노노노노노 as well as a stable and successful overall population. Exploration, art, literature and expansion brought new ideas both interesting and scary to the common person. These superstitions blend pagan traditions and international folk tales with seemingly supernatural explanations of events. Good And Bad Luck Elizabethan era citizens believed that certain actions would invite good or bad luck, just as other actions could ward off bad luck. Someone was bound to have bad luck if they walked under a ladder (associated with the gallows), kept a peacock feather (the "evil-eye" pattern), stirred a pot counter clockwise (it would spoil food), put shoes on the table (invited death) or spilled salt (it was expensive and wasteful). To keep bad luck away and invite good luck to dwell, people could knock on wood (trees were strong and natural) or carry charms made of silver or iron. Love And Marriage Elizabethan England fully embraced the concept of romantic love, and traditions surrounding courtship and marriage emerged. It was considered good luck for a bachelor to wear a sprig of basil on his collar when seeking a bride. An array of superstitions grew around marriage, such as the bride putting on the right shoe first for luck or avoiding marriage on Friday the 13th. Witchcraft And The Devil
People in the Elizabethan era were deeply religious and felt a real fear of the devil and witchcraft. Because there were no scientific explanations for events such as sick animals or bad luck, they blamed witches. Elizabethan witches were believed to cast spells and to keep certain magical animals, such as cats (especially black ones), bats and frogs. The color black was linked to evil, as were the numbers 7 and 13. The devil was thought to roam freely, and saying "Bless you" when someone sneezed was thought to keep the devil from entering their body.
