Superstitions are as old as man.
The earliest men who had no scientific knowledge fell on easy prey to superstition.
Thus, illiteracy and lack of knowledge and capacity to reason out are the hotbeds which generate and perpetuate superstition.
Mahatma Buddha was probably the first great man to expound and explain the value and significance of reason which eliminated superstition altogether.
He emphasized that everything should be thoroughly studied, judged and tested before being believed.
Later, many other great men like Guru Nanak and Kabir exhorted the people to shun superstitions.

hey friend mate you're answer
In India, the pundits and Sanskritic scholars set some taboos or inhibitions of human behaviour, such as:
Carrying eggs, oil and many such articles during journey was regarded as inauspicious.
Journeys away from home were strictly codified for the seven days of the week.
The newly initiated ‘brahmcharis’ were strictly forbidden to see the face of the lower caste men like the scavengers.
These strict rules struck root in the households and were especially so because people were illiterate, unenlightened, orthodox and sometimes dominating.
Today we have learnt the scientific explanations for many natural events. But we are yet not free from the chains of superstitions.
If somebody sneezes, we take it as a sign of something unfavorable.
If we are going somewhere and a cat moves across the road, we become upset. We lose our confidence. We begin to pray to God for a safe journey. Thus we are always afraid of unseen forces
I hope it will help
