Editor's note: You are mistaken if you think that Westerners do not believe in superstitions. The superstitions might be different, but pretty much every country around the world has them. Our bloggers have compiled a list of some of the common superstitions followed in the West to help you get a better insight into their cultures and customs. Feel free to leave your comments if you know of more superstitions, with their origins. 要是你认为西方人不迷信，那你就大错特错了。不同国家迷信内容或许不同，但几乎所有国家都存在迷信。我报博主整理了一份西方共有迷信清单，以方便大家深入了解西方文化与风俗。如果你知道更多的迷信内容以及其起源，可在评论区畅所欲言！ 1. Friday the 13th is a bad day. 13号星期五不吉利（黑色星期五） The reason that Friday 13th in particular is unlucky is due to the massacre of the Knights Templar by Phillip IV of France on Friday the 13th. 这一天之所以被视为不详之日是因为1307年10月13日（星期五）上午法国国王腓力四世下令逮捕并屠杀境内所有的圣殿骑士团成员。 2. Bird pooing on you is good luck. 鸟粪掉身上是走运的象征 One theory of this is the sort of karma logic that assumes, if something bad happens to you, then something good must happen to balance out the karma. 这个理论是源于对因果报应的假设，如果你碰到一件糟心事，那么之后必要有好运来抵掉这件坏事以形成因果报应 |
