ADVICE OLD AND NEW

To ensure that a change in life or in love will be a good one the old advice is to throw hot stones against the door of where you are living. Besides providing you with temporary good luck, this action will cause all liquids in the vicinity to flow more freely. For example, an increase in the milk production of neighbouring cows will occur; rivers will become fast flowing; heavy rain will be unleashed from suddenly ashen skies; your blood will quicken its course through your body causing your face to flush, your muscles to strengthen, and your energy level to soar.

You will need this energy. Because along with good luck comes bad luck, often in the form of malevolent spirits who will tamper with your liquid moments causing your thoughts to become like rooms filled with landmines, causing gleefulness to vanish, dread to be restored.

The new advice says you must do several strenuous things to ensure that bad luck doesn’t gain the upper hand, but so far we don’t know what these strenuous things might be.

Perhaps there’s a list somewhere.

Maybe you can find it.

Or figure one out.

The best I know is to wear yellow and hold your breath.
