 So does anyone suffer from Paraskevidekatriaphobia? Friday the13th has never bothered me in the slightest, but there are people who fear this dreaded day. Why does this day have this connotation? Does anyone know the origins of this phobia? |

OK well here are some (useless) facts for you about Friday the 13th, courtesy of Jonathan Cainer.
* AXA Insurance found drivers are 50 per cent LESS likely to crash on a Friday that falls on the 13th (probly cos people are more careful) *Due to a quirk in the calendar, Friday is more likely to fall on the 13th of the month than any other day... by a factor of 0.02 per cent. * On Friday October 13, 1307, King Philip of France executed several thousand members of the Knights Templar. * There were 13 people at the Last Supper - after which jesus died on a Friday. * Ancient zodiacs vary, but ALL contain 12 signs. that's why 13, in every culture has come to symbolise the breaking of a perfect circle. In fact you SHOULD be more interested in the fact that it is a full moon on a friday the 13 th lolol.
