Do you have rituals or habits that you rely upon?  

hi panadaeyes the only thing I can think of that I sometimes do, well every time we play bingo I do it, is visualize a winning sequence on my card, and I will always win at least three times so it may send some lucky vibes out. some have teased me and said she cheats, but you really cannot cheat in bingo, either you win or you do not win..I also visualize the numbers that I need, for example I have all but two in a diagonal row say i 30 and g 42, so I visual those cards as the caller calls out the numbers and like I said I win a lot.

I have many rituals and habits to help me everyday of the week. For example, one habit I have is nominating every weekend "National Pancake Weekend" in my household. This habit or ritual gives me something to look forward to during the week, and perks up my spirits. Another ritual I do to help me through the day is walking. The exercise rejuvinates me, and I am better able to deal with the rest of the day.

With me it's magpies. I take notice of the rhyme, "One for sorrow, two for joy, three for a girl and four for a boy. Five for silver, six for gold and seven for a secret never to be told." If I see a single magpie I have to salute it and spit to stop the bad luck - that's surprised some of my car passengers, I can tell you! Alternatively, you can cross your fingers until you see a four-legged animal. As I write this, I realise how barking mad I sound! Another of my superstitions is touching wood. I also have one ritual. Every morning when I leave for work my husband says, "Drive carefully" to me. If he forgets, I remind him because I feel it keeps me safe on the road. Told you. Barking!

"He loves me, he loves me not" Yes. Removing petals off a flower and if there was that last petal that remained while I said 'He loves me" there were hopes but finally whether it worked or not I do not remember. If the crow crows sitting on my terrace then there is an email for me. If he sits on the gate then I would expect visitors but this one thing about crows has worked for me. If he sat at the gate and crowed then I would put my house in order expecting guests to arrive!!!

yes i have. i used to make a sign of the cross before i go out to work or whenever i go out and it takes time for me to come back. i was doing this since i was a child as my father used to tell us to make a sign of the cross so that our angels or perhaps god will protect us from danger since my father is not always with us all the time.

When I get up in the mornings to write, I put albums on my Crossley player and the first albums I play are "Spooky Two" by Spooky Tooth, then "Maggot Brain" by the Funkadelic. I used to have 45's that I play also but those were lost or stolen years ago. I play mostly sixties music because those were great times for me and because they get and keep me in a writing mood.

I guess I'm just crazy or hopeful but the only ritual I seem to have is when I leave the house I always look in my little gargoyle mirror by the door. Not to check my hair or make up or anything, but I just have to look in that mirror before I can leave the house and go out.

I follow a ritual when I take my dogs to the show.
I wear my "special" shoes. Its an ordinary shoes
but its very comfortable for fast walking. I had
a positive result when in the first who my pup
ended winning reserve best in group. Thus I
continued to wear the same clothes for
the other shows. But I did not have the same
results for all the shows

When I'm playing dice with my friends, I always shake the dice in my left hand and I seem to get more of the number that I'm looking for when I shake them with my left hand than with my right hand.

My daughter used to shake her fist at the red traffic lights when we were impatient to get somewhere in the morning and say "Come on you stupid light," and a lot of times the light would change as well.
