27th October '17: Is green unlucky?

Welcome to Friday ๐Ÿ”‹๐ŸŽพ๐Ÿฅ—๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒต๐ŸขAre you superstitious? Probably: research shows that 77 per cent of us are, even if it’s just saying ‘touch wood’ or ‘fingers crossed.’ Or maybe you’re superstitious about colour – I’m guessing probably green. A friend of mine told me his grandmother wouldn’t go into a house that had ‘unlucky’ green carpets. And another friend’s mum would never get into a green car. Apparently it’s unlucky for actors to wear green after French playwright and actor Moliere died wearing his green costume. I find it fascinating that green gets it in the neck when it’s so proliferous in nature. Do you think green is unlucky? Or any other colour, for that matter?
