Friday 13th and Its Psychic Effects

So it's Friday the 13th and your wondering what impact this may have on your psychic wellbeing, this article looks into a little of the history behind this seemingly unlucky day and the hows and the whys needed to protect yourself.

There are many theories behind how the superstition of Friday 13th began, even being linked back to the Knights Templar but the truth is there's no real historical mention of this date before the 1800's. Because of this the most common theory is that the date is a combination of two older theories, that the number 13 is unlucky and that Fridays are unlucky.

There is the belief that 13 is an unlucky number of dinner guests, as in the Last Supper and some Norse Mythology, as it can lead to the death of one of the members.

Numerology states that the number 13 is an irregular number as it falls after, and thus breaches the completeness of the number 12. Finally there is believed to be a pagan significance behind years with 13, rather than the usual 12, lunar cycles.

Next up is the reasoning behind unlucky Fridays. Fridays have long been considered to be unlucky some theorise that this is due to the fact that Jesus was apparently crucified on a Friday, and others look to the significance of the day in the 14th century 'The Canterbury Tales'. In more modern times there's also the stock market crashes of 'Black Friday' and the belief that Friday is an unlucky day to start new work.

So this leads to the inevitable question 'Is Friday the 13th actually an unlucky day?'.

Well the answer is probably yes it can be. Human beliefs are well know to effect the energy in their auras and because of the weight of the belief behind this 'unlucky day' there tends to be a build up of negative energy in personal auras because of the expectation of unlucky events happening.

This build up can spill over and affect our own aura, even if you don't particularly believe in the superstition, and so some level of psychic protection on this day can be necessary.

Professional psychics and mediums do this in a couple of ways. You can either shield your aura via psychic shielding to stop it being affected by others negative energies or you can perform a psychic grounding during the day to purge your aura of any negative effects.
