I get totally pysched about this day. I've posted my thoughts and feelings on my blog - The Wheel Turns, at www.sistermoon13.blogspot.com

It's a magickal day, a special day.

The number 13 is a wondrous number for magickal workings and spells. Llewellyn's Witches Almanac had a great spell write up for today.

I understand how Non-Pagans fear this number, since its superstitious roots go back to when the Knights Templar were massacred. But that's their thing and certainly not mine!

I agree, Friday the 13th is just another day as everyday is an adventure.

Oh lol, their is indeed much lore around this date it is believed that a child that was born on Friday would be full of woe, but their is a bright side, as they would be given the gifts of sight as well as the gift of the healer . It was alos the night in which 'witches ' gathered, some say it was the very day inwhich Eve gave the fruit to Adam to eat. It was believed that this day helled evil influences and in the days of old it was customary for all hangings to occur on this day . In some parts of our past it was a day for banging pots and pans as this drove evil away. and it is claimed that the weather on this day will be repeated on the following sunday [ looks out side *-* lol ]. their were even activities that one should not do,
one must not cut their finger nails. you must no sneeze, you must not use your broom, one must not do any sewing, and by all means no trips, on paying of debts on this day, be careful with the salt, a day to learn something new, no cutting of the hair, do not plant anything in the ground, and some say its a waist of time to go fishing. I think therefore I'll read a good book lol have a good one BB

I try NEVER to go out of the house or on the road on Friday the 13th. For me, it's always brought bad luck. I've had flat tires, dead batteries (my roommate had a dead battery on the same day and as I was calling AAA (American Automobile Assn) for a battery boost, said let me have the phone, too!), lost things, gotten laid off from my job, you name it. I don't have a fear of it, I'm just very wary of it. Maybe it's me, I don't know. But something's up.

turn around the pattern! today is a day of empowerment, luck (GOOD and BAD), magical strength, and great changes. I feel on friday the 13th, things "peak" on both the high spectrum and low spectrum. Use today to empower yourself instead of fear it!

Blessed Be and Good Luck Everyone!

The number 13 is always been a great number for me. So being Friday the 13th I think just adds to that. (However, Thurs. the 12th has always been days I wish I could skip over)
