Talismans and good luck charms. « Poor Richard's Almanac

Continuing Poor Richard’s Almanac ’s “Lucky Post” week, today let’s look at various charms, amulets, and talismans that are believed to keep us from harm.

The other day, our friend Ben and Silence Dogood were watching one of our favorite films, “Conan the Barbarian.” The pendant that Conan wears throughout most of the film, featuring the spoked wheel symbolic of his god, Crom, as always caught our friend Ben’s attention, especially when Conan decides that Crom has failed him, rips off the pendant, and replaces it with another talisman, the Eye of Set (a huge ruby), which now means more to him symbolically.

When our friend Ben was a child, the number of good luck charms (aka amulets and talismans) available to a U.S. citizen of the South were extremely limited. The fabled four-leaf clover was of course the most prominent, and no child could pass by a clover patch without looking for one. (The “normal” clover had also gained renown centuries before as a symbol of the Trinity because of its three-leaflets-in-one-leaf structure.)

A horseshoe was also considered lucky, but I doubt that anyone knew the reason was that its arms formed horns, and that nailing a horseshoe upside-down over a doorway was thought to keep the devil from slipping inside. We just thought they were cool, and that any of our friends who managed to obtain one were really lucky.

The rabbit’s foot—mercifully, no longer considered socially acceptable—was another hugely popular charm. It was affordable and readily available, dyed in an assortment of colors, on a keychain. Our friend Ben has no clue why a rabbit’s foot would be considered lucky, especially given the fate that obviously befell its original owner.

Finding a penny was also supposed to be lucky, as in “Find a penny/Pick it up/All day long you’ll have good luck.” Of course, you were supposed to keep your “lucky penny” rather than spending it.

There were also ways to make your wishes come true. Sadly, we didn’t have access to Aladdin’s lamp and its wish-granting genie, but we did have wishbones, and of course we had the ritual of making a wish and blowing out all the candles on our birthday cake to make the wish come true. 

If your family was religious, you might wear a crucifix, Miraculous Medal, St. Christopher or St. Francis medal, or simple cross around your neck, or display a “bathtub Mary” in your yard or “dashboard Jesus” in your car. It would have been considered blasphemous to suggest that these were talismans to ward off evil and provide protection rather than signs of faith, however. But the Sign of the Cross did make it into the lesser realms of luck: We would cross our fingers for luck, and some evil types would cross their fingers behind their backs to “double-cross” someone and back out of their word.

Despite our fascination with “lucky charms,” we had no idea of the scope of good luck charms available around the world. Good luck charms, more formally called amulets and talismans, have probably been around as long as we have. They’ve typically taken the form of small, portable objects that could be easily carried or worn to bring good luck or ward off misfortune. Here are some of the more popular amulets:

Scarabs: One of the best-known early talismans is the Ancient Egyptian scarab, a symbol of immortality for more than 4,000 years. For all their glorious art and sophistication, the Ancient Egyptians were a few blocks short of a pyramid when it came to immortality. They were such experts at preserving bodies that their mummies are not just still around but are even identifiable thousands of years later. But, though they carefully preserved not just the bodies but the internal organs for the afterlife, they apparently thought brains were more or less cotton padding between the ears, extracted them, and discarded them prior to mummifying the bodies. The brainless undead that resulted may have been the inspiration for sci-fi zombies.

Similarly, they chose as the symbol of immortality a dung beetle, frequently seen rolling a round ball of dung around, because they watched the beetles bury the dung balls in the ground and then, later, saw beetles emerge from the holes and assumed they were the original beetles reborn. The round ball of dung also reminded them of the undying sun, their greatest god, Amun. (If this rings a bell, think Tutankhamun.)

Ankh: Speaking of King Tut, his name also contains another powerful Egyptian amulet, the ankh. The Ankh was the most popular amulet in Ancient Egypt, symbolizing both immortality and the Key of Knowledge. (Poor King Tut, who died at just 19, didn’t seem to have benefited from his lucky name. But if he failed to achieve immortality in his own time, he certainly has gained it in ours!)

Coral and pearls: These gifts of the sea both assumed protective powers as talismans. In the Mediterranean, coral was associated with protection for infants, and was often presented as a birth-gift. That’s why so many Mediaeval and Renaissance paintings of the Madonna and Child show the infant Jesus holding a branch of coral or his Mother’s coral rosary. The pearl, on the other hand, has been believed to preserve purity, relieve depression, and prevent insanity. But one reason for its enduring appeal in jewelry may be the belief that it protects its weaers against the loss of beauty.

The eye: From the Egyptian Eye of Horus to the eyes on Greek and Maltese fishing vessels to the blue glass eyes of Turkey and the eyes on peacock feathers in India, the eye has always been viewed as a protective talisman. It is supposed to protect the bearer from the Evil Eye by staring it down.

But what is the Evil Eye, and how did it gain a reputation for evil? Our friend Ben doesn’t know, but I do know that the concept is enduring. (Think of Frodo staring into the Mirror of Galadriel in The Lord of the Rings and suddenly beholding the Eye of Sauron.) Furthermore, why would a blue eye be considered more protective than, say, a brown or green eye? The Devil is supposed to have gold eyes, so perhaps a yellow eye would be most protective of all!

Dzi beads. Dzi beads are perhaps the most famous, and certainly the most treasured, of all the eye amulets. To this day, no one knows their origins. But for thousands of years, these natural black or brown agate beads with up to a dozen white “eye marks” have been prized in Tibet. Genuine dzi beads can bring over $100,000 per bead on the collector market, so it’s not surprising that numerous fakes have been made over the centuries. You can find modern knock-offs for sale for a few dollars in any bead store, as Silence, an enthusiastic beader, can attest, and very nice reproductions in stores that carry Tibetan jewelry and artifacts.

Just for gardeners. Believe it or not, that ubiquitous and much-loved piece of lawn art, the gazing ball, also originated as a device to ward off the Evil Eye and bring good luck to the home and garden. Since it reflects light and images in all directions, it presumably blinds the Evil Eye no matter what direction it’s coming from. Good thing for gardeners that gazing balls have been undergoing a landscape revival!   

Dreamcatchers. These Native American talismans, in the form of a circle with a “spider web” in the center and often adorned with feathers, beads, and even fetishes, have become so popular they may now have become America’s favorite good luck charm. Originally hung over the cribs of infants to protect them from harm by catching their bad dreams in the “web,” they now hang from rear-view mirrors, are worn as earrings and necklaces, are hung over the beds of adults as well as children, and are used as wall ornaments. Our friend Ben and Silence have a collection of interesting examples, and Silence vows that she’ll start making some of her own for friends and family.

There are many, many other talismans that our friend Ben has no time to delve into here, from the Hand of Fatima to the ladybug. In fact, I haven’t even scratched the surface of this fascinating phenomenon. Have I left out your favorite? If so, please let us know what it is and why you think it’s lucky!

If you’d like to learn more about talismans and amulets, let me recommend my favorite book on the subject, Body Guards: Protective Amulets and Charms, by Desmond Morris (Element Books, 1999).

Our series of “lucky posts” here at Poor Richard’s Almanac continues tomorrow. Stay tuned!

How to find a 4-leaf clover « Seven angels, four kids, one family

Gary Corby (blog here, website about upcoming book here) asked me to blog this method of finding 4-leaf clovers, which works phenomenally well for Kiddo#1 (he found 80 of them the first summer he tried it) and marginally well for me, plus I’ve been able to teach others to do it too.

And in all fairness, this method was taught to me by someone from EtiquetteHell, but I’m forgetting whom. (Edited later: I think it was Geordicat.)

Since it’s re-created in Seven Archangels: Annihilation, I’m going to post t he excerpt. This is from Chapter One, where Gabriel is in human form, playing a hide-and-seek game with Remiel, who’s hiding as a four-leaf clover. The two boys are later revealed as demons. See if you can figure out which one turns out to be the cherub Mephistopheles (he’s not very good at remembering he’s in disguise, but Gabriel’s a little too focused to realize).

And then go find some good luck in chlorophyl-form. Enjoy!

Gabriel didn’t look up. “I’m searching for a four-leaf clover.”

“How do you do that?” said the smaller of the two, who appeared to be six.

“It’s actually not that hard.” Gabriel grinned. “You’ve got to figure that statistically speaking, there would be about one four-leaf clover in a patch this size.”

“I’d have estimated two.” The smaller boy’s eyes peered out curiously from under his curly hair. “I think it’s about one in three hundred, although there’s obviously some variance due to genetics.”

The bigger boy rolled his eyes.

“This species of clover tends to have fewer four-leaf variants,” Gabriel said, waving a hand out over the plants, “maybe one in five hundred, and given the square footage of this patch, I estimate we have about five hundred clovers here. Knowing that, you look at the patch and unfocus your eyes and concentrate on the shapes rather than the individual leaves themselves.”

“Oh!” The smaller boy seemed to get a bit taller. “You’re pattern-matching rather than actually looking.”

Gabriel grinned. “It’s as simple as picking out a square in a field of triangles.”

The boy looked breathless. “Do you find you can train the human eye to register only the squares?”

“Absolutely!” Gabriel turned his attention back to the plants at his feet. “Human vision is very easy to fool because the brain interprets visual patterns the way it expects to and rejects any data it doesn’t expect—”

“You don’t have to tell me,” said the boy. “I take advantage of that all the time.”

The bigger boy said, “You’d better quit it. Now.”

Immediately the younger boy fell silent.

Gabriel brightened. “Got it!”

Self Improvement – Easier Information » Blog Archive » How I ...

Most anyone who takes up the game of golf likes to receive tips from experienced golfers. This makes good sense, and can shave some time off your learning curve. I personally can listen to them for hours at a time. I like hearing about and trying out new techniques to see if it improves my own personal game. I tried out and added many things to my game, and after years of staying average, I realized that there was one main ingredient that was necessary for success.

I realized this only after years of trying this, and trying that, and trial and error learning. Gaining experience along the way, I took advice from many more experienced players. I even paid for some personal training from a professional I befriended. But I still was lacking something that would get me where I felt right about my game.

I entered a lot of tournaments, and I faired quite well in some, and I also tanked in a few. But I had determination, which is a quality that all golfers must have. Another of my friends recommended his best golf instruction book which I read and took to heart. And while I learned a few things, I still was not satisfied deep in my gut. I was still searching.

I was searching for something that would give me an edge. An extra vein of confidence that I seemed to be missing. I could not put my finger on what I was looking for, but I knew if I could find it, I would be a much better golfer than I was at that time. I worked hard at improving my game with what I knew. I played often, and tried to play courses that were very challenging.

It finally got to the point where my game leveled out. Some days were a little better, some days a little worse, but basically I stayed around the same skill level and ability. It made me stale, and was a bit discouraging. I remember lying awake nights wondering what this thing that haunted me could be. But nothing ever came. So I thought I was probably as good as I could ever be, and had to come to grips with it.

Days went by, tournaments came and went, and my game averaged out about the same. I decided to try to stop thinking about it so much. To get it out of my head. Just let it go. Then I was some kids playing on the sidewalk, and it hit me. I knew instantly it was the missing key I had been searching for. It was so simple, but so powerful.

While I was watching, the kids were digging around in their yard, and found a pretty little blue marble. They all smiled and wanted to hold it. And as they passed it around, each one closed their hand around it and made a wish. That was it! Since we were children, we have all believed in having a good luck charm. Before I teed off in the tournament the next day, I put my rhodium plated wedding ring to my lips and kissed it. I golfed the best game of my career. Simple, and yet very powerful. Belief was the missing ingredient.

My Life: A Study in Frustration - Because I'm bored


Name: Murielle

 

  1. How are you?    Tired and wishing I had more energy
     

 

  1. Who are you?   A brat...lol.  I'm stubborn and when I get something in my head I don't let it go until the idea has come to fruitation.  I'm the receipient of a dounble lung transplant.  I have CF.  I like to think I'm a nice person and try to help people as much as I can.  I try not to judge as you can never really understand some one until you've walked a mile in their shoes.  I'm quirky.  Short, sweet and a little off beat as my boyfriend likes to say.  I'm cynical but and most of the time I think people are insane (you know, like the guy who decided that lanes were only suggestions and turned right from the left lane!!) but strangely I come off as being bubbly and pleasant...lol.

 

  1. What is your family like? Friends?  My family is pretty tight knit though they sometimes drive absolutely insane.  My mother is a constant worrier and has made it her hobby but has a soft and kind heart.  My father is pretty high strung but is funnier than hell.  No one outside my boyfriend and brother makes me laugh as much as my dad.  My brother is the exact opposite of me.  Serious and moody but he's also always there when I need him and is a softy at heart.  I don't know if I should count my boyfriend as family but we've been together for almost two years so I'm counting him as family.  He has a tendency to get depressed easily and sometimes I wish he'd stand up for himself a little more but he's also gentle, sweet, kind hearted, funnier than hell and mine.  Hehehe.  Friends are across the board.  They're all pretty nice people who have their various flaws but it's all good.  I'm fairly sure there are things that my friends find infuriating about me.  Well I know they do but that's another subject entirely.

 

  1. Favorites (List only One)

Foods: Chicken
Color: Black
TV Show: NCIS
Band: U2
Game: I don't play games
 

  1. Hobbies: I write on LJ, I read, I talk to friends, I write every now and again, love movies, listening to music
  2. What do you to relax?  Watch TV, take hot baths, nap
  3. If you had three wishes what would you wish for and why? (By the way, no wishing for all the money in the world and no wishing for more wishes.) Wish one would be to come into a lot of money that will last me until the day I die so I wouldn't have to worry about paying for meds, I could buy my own house and my own car.  Wish two would be to become a published writer or at least be very good at something that actually paid good money because I always feel like I fall short on my potential and that I'm not really good at anything in particular.  Wish three is that I would get my puppy in the next four months because I want a puppy.

 

  1. What is a typical day for you?  I get up.  I take my meds.  I take a shower.  I go to work.  Spend the day going through books and dealing with people who can be pretty creepy at times.  Come home.  Eat supper.  Talk to my boyfriend on the phone. Watch some TV. Go to bed.  Start all over again.

 

  1. Any new plans for you? None.  Well, maybe the new puppy and I'd be going to Toronto again this summer but really nothing huge.

 

  1. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? In 10 years? 5 years I see myself in Toronto, firmly established in the community with my dog and living with my boyfriend.  Hopefully working a good job, maybe taking a writing class or two, participating in dog sports, go to Europe, spend a night or two at Chillingham Castle, one of the most haunted castles in the UK, and pretty much that's it.  Ten years?  I had trouble coming up with what was going to happen in five.  The truth is I don't plan beyond a week in advance because I've learned the hard way that life throws stuff at you that you can't control.

 

  1. Who has been your biggest influence in your life?  My parents, my english teachers, Cesar Millan as of late

 

 

  1. What is your biggest flaw? I can't ever finish anything I start.


  1. What makes you happy? a good movie, spending time with my boyfriend, a nice day outside, a good book, hearing a good story.
  2. Sad? When you see the victims of animal abuse, elder abuse, child abuse
  3. Angry? People who seem to get a kick out of hurting other beings, people getting away with stuff they shouldn't have, unfairness, hard core selfishness, ignorant people who judge who have no idea what they're talking about.
  4. What do you enjoy? Watching movies, cuddling with my dog, watching true crime stories, watching shows about the paranormal, black humour, being warm, napping, silence...sweet sweet silence, Johnny Depp.
  5. What do you look for in a mate? In a Friend?  Some one who is compassionate, loving, gentle, kind of quirky, really funny, mature, sweet, and doesn't think I'm totally off my rocker.  Mission accomplished.


  1. What are some of your beliefs?  I believe in the Goddess.  I believe there are angels.  I believe in ghosts and the afterlife.  I believe in justice and fairness.  I believe in a lot of things.

 

  1. What are your fears?  That I'm not good enough.  That I'll fail and disappoint people.


  1. Do you like or dislike change? Why?  I don't mind change.  If things didn't change you would never learn.


  1. What are your talents?  Um, I write, I can balance a spoon on my nose?  I can burp the alphabet backwards (that's not true but it would be cool if I could).


  1. What do you do for a living? Do you enjoy it? What do you want to do for a living?  I work at the library as a clerk.  I kind of like it.  I wish I could do something that didn't require me to deal with people so much because it's draining!  I would rather be locked up in a room full of dusty old books and doing research or writing my own book.


  1. What is your greatest treasure and/or possession?  The Ankh that I wear around my neck.  It's my good luck charm.  Anything my boyfriend gives me.

 

  1. What is life to you? Life is short, slightly frustrating but in general great as long as those infections stay away.


  1. If you could change one thing about you what is it and why?  My ability to concentrate.   I could actually get stuff done and maybe even write a book!  The ability to be more creative and come up with an original story line.


  1. Where have you travelled? Where else would you like to go?  I've been to NYC.  That was cool.  I would like to go to the UK, Scotland, and Ireland.


  1. What is the most vivid memory of your past?  Shelling peas with my cousins in my grandmas back yard.  My older cousins teasing the crap out of me because I was the youngest of them.  Being in my cousin's wedding as a flower girl.

 

  1. Why do you get up in the morning (or night if you are a night person)?  To take my pills and to see what the day is going to throw at me...lol.

From cars to computers A GOOD LUCK CHARM by LastChantsStudio

Description

One day back in the 80's, when my alternator mysteriously began working again, I got the idea for a goddess of inanimate objects and according to friends who agreed, she must exist, and had their own testimonials to her many merciful interventions. And in the years since I created the first car charms, even more testimonials have rolled in...and not just about cars.

Vehiclia loves to combine her magic with yours regarding all things that are usually considered inanimate. Just pump up the positive vibes and let the manifesting begin!

She is made out of white earthenware clay with a rusty-mossy green glaze. She is approx. 3 1/2 inches dia. and her descriptive flyer will be included.

You might have seen many people around you wearing amulets, bracelets, jewelries or the tattoos over specific parts of their body. All such peculiar attractants are symbols of good luck charms.

Good Luck Charms - Insects, Objects, Anumals & Icon

Everyone in the world believes in good destiny or good luck.Though invisible destiny has its tremendous impact on individual either in positive or negative way there are some creatures and objects, known as good luck charms that are believed to overpower negative forces and remove all the hurdles from human life. Good luck charms are blindly believed to bring happiness, love, prosperity, strength and power. Even those who claim themselves the atheist in some way or the other staunchly believe in good luck charms. You might have seen many people around you wearing amulets, bracelets, jewelries or the tattoos over specific parts of their body. All such peculiar attractants are symbols of good luck charms.

Besides the handmade objects like holy cross, swastika (Indian holy symbol) and horse-nail there are many insects also such as ladybug,  dragonfly, scarab, pig, elephant and tiger treated as the good luck charms. Apart from objects, insects and the animals there are many prominent icons (holy men) also like Buddha, respected and worshiped like a god. The icons also are treated as the good luck charms in different parts of the world.

Though many of you may go against the good luck symbol or charm as a part of superstition, you will can’t deny the fact that every person in the world believes blindly in an invisible power, in some way or other, that is, God. Though a name of God or invisible power has got to differ in different religions and cultures, the god, in all the religions, is believed to provide strength, peace, aggrandizement, prosperity, success, fame and power. Is there any God or power in the universe which doesn’t seem to provide happiness? Those who refuse to accept god’s existence extend their approbation to God indirectly by opting for good luck charms wearing amulets or tattoos. We are presenting over here world’s few popular good luck symbols or charms in order to make you introduce you with their conspicuousness for the life of humans.

Superstitions and the “Truth” Behind Them:
By Meagan McCall

Superstitions grow out of man’s attempts to explain the unknown. Do you consider yourself to be superstitious? Are you one of many who carry around a rabbit foot for good luck, avoid stepping on cracks in the sidewalk for fear of parental injury, search for defective four leaf clovers, change direction upon viewing a walking black cat, wait until already standing outside in the rain to open an umbrella, and walk around ladders instead of simply walking straight under them? What made you start believing that these superstitions should be obeyed? How did they begin on their journey into the consciousness of human beings?

Rabbit’s Foot:
Some people attempt to detect reasoning behind sudden success or a positive outcome. They say that it is because they are wearing their lucky underwear or they woke up on the right side of the bed that morning. Just because a few things went right that day, they will choose a particular object and call it “lucky.” This is how the carrying around a rabbit foot for good luck was likely started; ancient European Celts held the rabbit to be a sacred animal for its abilities in the field of reproduction. The Celts believed that rabbits were symbols of reproduction with high success rates, health, and prosperity, all qualities that humans desire. The good luck charm was therefore passed down through the generations.

Ladder:
Many believers, from young children to house painters, avoid walking under a ladder for fear of receiving bad luck. There is, however, a logical reason behind this superstition. The person walking under the ladder could accidentally hit it or bump it with their arm by mistake, causing the nails, paint, or person using the ladder to be knocked off. Such an accident would be dangerous to their health and anyone on the ground within crushing distance.

Mirrors:
The superstition of 7 years of bad luck following the breaking of a mirror can be traced to ancient Rome, where glass mirrors were first created. However, just because the Romans invented mirrors does not mean that they should spread irrational stories to make people use extra caution around the objects. The Romans and Greeks believed that mirrors reflected the user’s soul; therefore if the echoing image was destroyed or distorted, this could mean a corruption or breaking of the person. The most logical reason for why this myth is spread is that mirrors are expensive to replace and that the small shatters of glass may get into someone’s eye when they bounce off of the floor. The shattered pieces may even remain on the floor, waiting to stab an unsuspecting bare foot.

Umbrella:
The superstition that it is bad luck to open an umbrella indoors is heard by many children in elementary school on rainy days and continues on by word of mouth. Teachers do not correct their students, who pass on these myths, because they know that an umbrella opened in close corders could accidentally hit someone in the eye. It can also knock over a nearby object (such as a fancy vase that would only be indoors, never outside), because the user did not realize the span of the umbrella.

Wishbones:
Most people don’t like finding bones in the chicken they are about to eat, but one bone that is an exception to this rule is the wishbone. The superstition is that, to have a wish come true when breaking a wish bone, two people take hold of one end of the bone and pull until it separates; the person with the longer end gets to make a wish and have it come true.

Pennies:
There is a superstition that finding a penny lying heads up is good luck. On the other hand, finding a penny tails up is bad luck; according to the superstition, it should be flipped over and left for someone else. This is rather economically unsound. It probably started when a person saw a penny on the floor, told their walking buddy “Look, I found money!” The friend might have then become jealous and made up a reason why the original finder should not take that money. When the locater went to pick up the coin, his friend claimed it would be bad luck, and then waited until his friend flipped the coin over before picking it up for himself.

“I believe in signs, so I guess I’m superstitious.”-Senior Marissa Sturges.

Green Laker: Taiwan Good Luck Charm

Do You Look for Good Luck Charms? | BlogHer

Spring has sprung, and green shoots are appearing while tight buds are unfurling. When the sun comes out and the rain stops, I scan the ground for four-leaf clover.

The clover is big and wild now, so it is hard not to notice it growing. Reflexively, I always stop and scan patches for the lucky ones. I wonder why I do this. I know that one tiny leaf connected to a few others cannot actually alter the course of my life. And I don't even know how I picked up this particular superstition, other than perhaps too many bowls of Lucky Charms cereal when I was a kid.

Shortly after I moved into my previous apartment, after being delayed because of work that had remained unfinished and other last-minute problems discovered (like two gas leaks), I found a four-leaf clover in the yard. Finding that clover, however, did not prevent sad things from happening while I lived there -- like my dogs dying (from old age) -- nor from other problems with the space that led me to ultimately have to leave.

If my lucky miracle plant was a bust, why then do I still seek them out? I think it is because I like to be hopeful and optimistic. Not an unreasonable Pollyanna, but I think that if I'm on the look-out for good, I'm more likely to find it.

And, taking things as signs rather than good luck charms has a better track record for me. When I take something as a sign, I can create the story I've attached to the symbol. Luck can happen unbidden. Rather than waiting for luck to passively descend upon us, better to actively create luck and make our own magic come to life.

I won't stop looking for and appreciating signs, though.

Late last year, a dear friend sent me a gift of an amaryllis bulb. The planting directions noted the need for full sun and 70-degree temperatures. Not having a good sunny spot available, I stuck it in a closet thinking I would find someplace to grow the flower. Last weekend, I discovered that the bulb had not only sprouted but had grown a two-foot long stalk and was just beginning to bloom. All this took place in the cool dark with the roots anchored in nothing but air. I e-mailed my friend and told her that I believed she delivered with the plant some loving intent and miracle mojo. I decided that this plant is a symbol of my life right now, which is somewhat topsy-turvy. My roots are growing in air, and it can seem devoid of light. I shouldn't be thriving, but, like my plant, with loving intent, inch-by-inch, even in the dark, I am growing and getting ready to burst into brilliant bloom once again.

And my latest sign? As I was contemplating this post and thinking it foolish to look for four-leaf clover, I stumbled across one. It shriveled up and died too quickly for me to preserve it other than in a snapshot. Nonetheless, I'm a lucky girl.

Do you hunt for four-leaf clover? Do you have any good luck charms? How do you measure luck in your life?

I'm fairly certain, though, that it is not only I who indulges in good luck charms; ever since I found a four-leaf clover in the grass of my back yard as a little girl, I've connected the notion of the charm to the idea of fate.

Amy Herring at Heavenly Truth: Jupiter in Astrology: Looking Beyond Luck

Luck is defined as something desirable that just happens to a person by chance, out of their control, fated. It is true that where Jupiter lies in our chart might be an area of our life where we might find a sort of guardian angel at work, or where we may be able to narrowly slip out of scrapes more easily than some people. But the things we attribute to luck, good or bad, can often be more attributed to what we said yes or no to, the potential we allowed ourselves to see and hope for, in ourselves and in life's ability to bring good things our way.

BlogHer Member dnlee5: Nurturing the Scientific Mind

I was six years old and the thing that got me hooked was hunting for four-leaf clovers. I spent my summers outside playing in local city parks. My mother would often keep me occupied by assigning me the task of finding four-leaf clovers. I took to the activity like Velcro. I was an ace. I could spot the abnormal clover quicker than most other kids and I could find more. I soon challenged myself further, searching only for clovers with five or more leaves. A seven-lobed clover was the highest I found.

I credit this playful exercise for cultivating my ‘scientific thinking’ abilities. It helped me develop a keen sense of observation and critical evaluation early in life. This ability to find four-leaf clovers or needles in the haystack soon translated to my fondness of word puzzles – word searches, cross-words, Scrabble ®. These analytical skills: observation, scrutiny, break down and synthesis are essential tools in my chosen field of animal behavior research.

Mazalel - the angel of the stars - Angels on Your Shoulder

Okay. This is how the angel happened. A few years ago, a friend of mine was facing scary surgery. Of course, I suggested good luck charms, amulets, anything she believed would help. I even offered to lend her some of mine. "Do you happen to have an angel?" she asked. I told her I didn't, unfortunately.

That's when it came to me, the story of Mazalel, who unlike Raphael and the other more famous angels, happens to be female. She also happens to be shaped like a star -- and not just any old star but a particularly lucky one, the Star of David (which as everyone knows has been a major motif in Jewish jewelry practically forever).

Of all the gazillions of angels out there, Raphael and Gabriel are probably the most famous.

But my own favorite is Mazalel.

She's the angel who, back in Biblical times, had the brilliant idea of getting the stars to gather into sparkling pictures so everyone on earth could use the sky as a map to keep from getting lost.

That's how steering by the stars began -- and also wishing on the stars! And that's why mazal became the Hebrew word for both constellation and luck -- as in mazal tov!

I've never personally met Mazalel, but I have it on good authority (my mother, who heard it from her grandfather who came from a village in Russia where they knew about such things) that she actually is shaped like a star -- and not just any old star, but the Star of David, which may well be the original lucky star.

So it was only natural that one day when I needed something lucky and also sparkly to give a friend who was feeling very lost, I made a charm for her in my favorite angel's image.

Now Mazalel™ can be your lucky star angel, too! May she protect you on all your journeys!


With love and aloha,
Susan

Angels are everywhere just open your mind and your heart to the signs.

Make Angels on Your Shoulder part of your daily routine and share it with a friend!

I Want And Need More Money! I Need Better Luck! Maybe I Need An ...

The good luck charm that brought ill luck

A 46-year-old man,

Sunday Oyeagbu, an acclaimed spiritualist who specialises in concocting

charms and ‘success rings’ for clients, has been arrested by the police.

Mr. Oyeagbu

allegedly used his temple, called Sanctuary, at Salawu Street,

Surulere, to defraud one Ibrahim Shetima, a businessman based in

Adamawa State of N150, 000. Mr. Shetima allegedly paid the said amount

to the suspect for a charm that would make his debtors pay him back the

cash they owed him.

Unfortunately, the

charm did not bring Mr. Shetima any good luck with his debtors and

after waiting a while for the charm to work, he reported the suspect to

the Surulere police station.

Potent or not

At the Adeniji

Adele police station, Federal SARS Annex, Mr. Oyeagbu said his charms

are potent, stating that he cannot be held responsible for any failure

regarding his concoctions.

“This problem

started in 2008. One Shetima Ibrahim came to me and said he saw my

advert on the newspaper that some people who collected goods from him

have refused to pay and I should do a charm for him so that all those

people owing him will pay him.

“I charged him

N150, 000, which he paid, and I prepared him the concoction. He went

back to Adamawa State and after four months, he came back to say that

the charm did not work, that none of his debtors had paid him the

money. I asked him if he followed all my instructions and he said yes,

then I told him to be patient that the concoction will work, but he did

not believe me. He went straight to the Surulere police station and I

was picked up,” he said.

Mr. Oyeagbu added:

“This is the first time that one of my clients will come and say that

my charms do not work for them. I solve different problems of life. I

spent six years to learn this spiritual powers and how to use it to

help people, from one Alhaji in Kano State in 2004.”

He also claimed to have repaid some of the said amount he had received.

“I do not know why

the police are parading me as a criminal today because I have paid Mr.

Shetima some part of his money. Moreover this case was charged to court

and after a while, Mr. Shetima called me and said that we should settle

out of court. We met outside the court at Bode Thomas and signed an

agreement that I should pay back his money. He asked me to bring N100,

000 but I told him I do not have. I gave him N30, 000 but I have not

paid him the remaining balance,” he said.

Israel Ajao, the

deputy inspector of police (DIG) in charge of Area D, said Mr. Oyeagbu

is in police custody for alleged fraudulent practices.

“This man is been held for alleged fraud. He is one of those who

cheat others in the name of God. You can see the cross and other

ingredients he used for his business. His arrest will serve as a

deterrent to people who use the name of God for fraudulent means.”

Local man good luck charm on holesinone | newspresscom | The NewsPress

Local man good luck charm on holes-in-one

As apocryphal as they sound, tales of holes-in-one that bank off obstacles or race the whole way on the ground are more than myth.

Fort Myers resident Jim Sievers can attest to that.

A retired USGA rules official from Chattanooga, Tenn., Sievers, 68, has been witness to a staggering 38 aces in his 56 years around the game.

Included are four aces he has made, the most recent of which has to be deemed the most horribly unlucky of what is itself a lucky feat, considering its timing.

"I think it's just that I've played a lot of golf over the years," Sievers said of the 38 aces. "But still, guys have played 50 years and only see one or two. I've never met anyone that's seen anywhere near that many."

The last ace Sievers saw was his on Feb. 16 on the 13th hole at his home course, Cypress Lake Country Club. The shot - on his first swing of the day in a shotgun start - was relatively routine, a wind-aided 9-iron from 142 yards that hit the green, bounced twice and dropped in the hole.

The misfortune came in learning after the round that his ace would have won him a 2008 Ferrari F430 Spider had it been struck from at least 150 yards on the same hole three days later, in Cypress Lake's 50th anniversary member-guest tournament.

"What was funny ... well, it wasn't funny. I'm all happy and elated, and everybody is telling me, 'What bad luck,' " said Sievers, who is not a car buff but plenty appreciative of the classic Italian beauty.

"I don't even know if my wife would let me keep it at my age. She would probably tell me I couldn't handle it," he said of the V8, 4.3-liter convertible. "That (a Ferrari) was somewhat of a dream car. Most guys that would be a dream, but who in the world would put pencil to that."

The if-you-can-believe-it shots Sievers has witnessed include an ace on a 170-yard hole in a Tennessee state amateur event on a shot that was destined for the water well short of the green. Instead, it bounced off the rocks three times before finding the hole.

There also was the classic ground ball ace on a 200-yard hole that never got 6 feet off the ground.

"I swear to you, 180 (yards it) was on the ground," Sievers said.

A high school golfer in Atlanta and at Piedmont College in Demorest, Ga., Sievers first thought to track his witnessed aces when he saw six in one year in the 1960s.

More ace tales: Two friends had each of their three aces with Sievers on hand, and two golfers recorded aces with Sievers after hearing of his unusual connection.

"I said, 'I guess I'm just lucky to play with,' " Sievers said, "and twice it happened that those guys knocked it in the hole."

Sievers' good luck charm status - his would-be Ferrari notwithstanding - helps make him a popular player at Cypress Lake.

"He's a great guy to play golf with," said Fort Myers resident Vince Brooks, who had never seen or recorded an ace until he began playing with Sievers, then had two in a short window. "Maybe people are more relaxed and enjoy the game more when they're playing with him."
