Friday is Freya's day, it couldn't possibly be unlucky.
Why should we be afraid of Friday the 13th? Just because the Knights Templar were arrested in France on Friday the 13th of November, 1307, people have feared the 13th when it falls on a Friday ever since. It's silly.
Thanks GW ... I get so frustrated when people start talking about Friday the 13th being unlucky.
I don't get why anyone would buy into something likely started by the Catholic church in yet one more attempt to "frighten" people into turning their backs on the "old ways".
In addition to the incident GW mentioned, one can find any number of articles speculating on why Friday the 13th has been deemed “unlucky” and some make more sense than others. Friday the 13th has been vilified by the Western culture because of the associations with women. Friday is Freya's day (the
only day named after a goddess btw) ... thirteen is the number of full moons in a calendar year, and the number of menstrual cycles every woman has each year ... seeing a pattern?
If you choose to see any day as "unlucky", you will likely have a bad or unlucky day. I choose to see Friday the 13th as a great day, luckier than most days, and I have never had anything "bad" happen on those days, yesterday included.
