Everyday Superstitions
To Saxons, Sunday represented Sun and soul. To
Christians, it is the Sabbath. Superstition says to
beware of five Sundays in a month. Monday, for the
Moon and the mind, is Sabbath to the Greeks. Some say
a Monday marriage bodes wealth, but it’s an unlucky
day to cross rivers. Tuesday is the Saxon day of Mars
and all things physical The Amish like it as a wedding
day. Wednesday, Mercury’s day, is dedicated to the
power of speech. Thursday goes to Jupiter and wisdom.
Venus takes Friday, named for Fnga, the Saxon god
dess of love. Laugh on Friday, weep on
. . Saturday, the Jewish Sabbath,-
is named for the Saxon god of soil
