Paraskavedekatriaphobia- Fear of Friday the 13th.

Why is Friday the 13 cursed so much??? There are numerous reasons to it. 12 is considered a complete number due to things like 12 months in a calendar, 12 signs of the zodiac, 12 gods of Olympus, 12 tribes of Israel, 12 apostles of Jesus. Basically this makes 13 the “beyond complete” number and is rendered unlucky. Friday is considered bad as it was a Friday when Jesus was crucified, Adam committed a sin and the beginning of the great flood in the Noah’s story. Yet these superstitions are baseless and are not backed by a scientific approach. It is high time that we 21st century people are not misled by these fables.
