1. A cat crossing your path:
Well, in olden days people used to travel by carts that were pulled by domesticated animals. When passing through forests at night, the carriage animals used to get scared and act chaotic when they sensed wild cats such as leopards, cheetahs, and tigers crossing their path. The travellers warned others not to proceed when a cat passes their path.

Today, this is of no significance and we are afraid of black cats for no reason. Groucho Marx once said “If a black cat crosses your path, it signifies that the animal is going somewhere.”

2. Hanging a lemon and seven green chillies in shops:
3. If a mirror breaks it brings seven years bad luck:
4. One should take a bath after attending any funeral:
5. Why Indians throw coins in holy rivers:

here is ur answer mate.....

I believe that superstitions are silly and ridiculous beliefs. Everything happening has a reason and a scientific explanation. As much as they are considered foolish, superstitions do affect the society a lot. For example, widows are considered to bring bad luck. At one point in India, widows couldn't get shelter and received harsh treatment. They were not allowed to attend auspicious functions. Also, black cats are hunted down because of the incredibly old superstition: Black cats bring bad luck. They have as much right to live freely without being cringed at do. I think that we all should attempt to steer our minds away from society-affecting superstitions and live as though they had never been created........

some superstitions are as follows :

1. A cat crossing your path

2.Hanging a lemon and seven green chillies in shops

3. If a mirror breaks it brings seven years bad luck

4. One should take a bath after attending any funeral

5. Why Indians throw coins in holy rivers......
