Haven't you ever wondered what to do to have a whole year full of happiness and wealth? There might be some suggestions that will help you achieve that. There are believes and superstitions handed down from ages that might be helpful. With a little bit of good wiliness, laugh and hope we can predict our next year in old year. It's time to begin Christmas superstitions telling!

Many centuries ago people believed that some things done at the Christmas Eve may bring them all the best next year. Those superstitions are very old, so old that they might not have anything real in them and not a bit of truth. If you are not superstitious and don't believe in such 'stories' you can just read it for fun and while Christmas Eve act like you would believe it.

1.The whole day we have to be smiled. Happy from the moment we open our eyes at the morning. But we have to also smile to all the people we see and meet this day. It's not easy cause the Christmas preparations can make us nervous but if we try to be nice for our family and friends all Christmas Eve our good relations with family will stay for the next year.

2.We can't fix anything. It is forbidden to sew, repair or fix. If we do so we will be fixing the whole next year. So try not to sew socks, fix the tap or repair the washing machine and you will be all right from January till December.
3.Very common is superstition that we have to eat all the dishes that are standing at the Christmas table. At least taste all of them - if we don't like eating something. This believe says that if we do so we will have everything we need next year.

4.As it comes to wealth - if we want to be reach all the next twelve months we should put the coin under our plate. It will give us all the money that we want. To not to spend it to fast we should save a dried hull of the carp from Christmas Eve supper in our wallet and have it with us till next Christmas Eve.

5.We shouldn't lend anything to anyone at Christmas Eve. If we do so a person that will be given such help from us will suffer poorness. Of course, if we do it the other way and we will be the person that will borrow something we will be the one suffering financial problems.

6.If the first person who enters our home at Christmas day will be a man we can count on a good luck the next year. And opposite: when this person is a woman all our inmates will have a bad luck. (All the feminist that read it probably aren't happy at all.)

7.Talking to much is not always practical and seen as something good in society. Too much talking is also not recommended at Christmas Eve and specially interrupting someone. When we do so at this one special day we will fight with everyone the whole year.

8.The last superstition is also about bad luck and it says that number of person that is sitting around the table must be even. If it's not we will have bad luck all the next year. That's why family was inviting strange person on their supper - making this one person also small Christmas gifts and making gifts to their family by avoiding bad luck.

If you believe in those superstitions or act like you do you can be surprised what will happen next year. So good luck and Merry Christmas!
