  1. Lore of Certain Days

    Share Share Post
    Certain days of the are said to be lucky days and other days are said to be unlucky.
    Monday is an unlucky day as people do not like to start any new business or make a change. If there is any question of going on a long journey it is decided to wait till Tuesday. The third day of the week is regarded as a lucky day in this part of the country. Friday is like Monday as far as the luck of the day is concerned.
    Wednesday, Tursday and Saturday are not regarded as being unlucky. Sunday is left out as far as luck is not a day for work.
    The first day of May
