Superstition

    Pick a dandelion flower that has gone to seed.

    Take a deep breath and blow the seeds into the wind.

      Count the seeds that remain on the stem.

   That's the number of children you will have. 

 Mistletoe in the house protects it from thunder and lightning   

 and brings good luck and fertility.

   Rosemary planted by the doorstep will keep witches away.
