New Year Omen
In Scotland
In Scotland if one met a beg
gar, sexton, gravedigger, or a
person with empty arms on
New Year’s Day that presaged
ill fortune. However, if one en
countered a rich man, or some
one with his arms loaded, this
was a sign of good luck. And
in Lancashire to share a lighted
match with another was sure to
bring him harm. In some locali
ties, chimneys were cleaned out
to assure prosperity. It was a
belief of the Spaniards that if a
person had a gold chain in his
pocket on me first day of the
year, he would never lack for
cash in the coming months.
