witchscauldron1. Are you superstitious?
A little, but not very. I pay attention to susperstitions like omens of say, seeing a certain animal doing something specific that means "blah"...but other things I'm not too mindful of, even if I know about them.
2. What extremes have you heard of someone going to in the name of superstition?
That whole no 13th floor thing. It's sort of like "There is no Grey 17" or something. Just because you don't name it the 13th floor doesn't mean that it isn't. Stupid.
3. Believer or not, what's your favorite superstition?
My grandmother always told me that if you dropped cutlery on the kitchen floor, it'd bring you unexpected company. I tried doing it deliberately, and usually got in trouble for it. :P
4. Do you believe in luck? If yes, do you have a lucky number/article of clothing/ritual?
I do believe in luck...although more in the direction that we make our own luck. I don't own or do anything specific. I do however, feel that the numbers 2 and 8 are my lucky numbers, for whatever reason, as well as multiples of 9.
5. Do you believe in astrology? Why or why not?
Yes, and no. Horoscopes are always stupid. However, having your birthchart done can really tell you things about yourself you might not have realized or really been paying attention to. Mine is very accurate in detail, but most of my personality is not really in tune with my sunsign, if that's all you look at.
