I just moved in September and this has perfect energy for my new place. It is also pretty perfect to give to someone who may need a little good fortune.
Originally, the story of the horseshoe superstition begins with the story of a blacksmith named Dunstan. The devil came to Dunstan and had him fit his new horseshoes. Dunstan recognized the devil and nailed a horseshoe onto his hoof. The pain allowed Dunstan to chain him and made him swear he would never enter a place that had a horseshoe hung over the door. Some believe that if guests come to a house where a horseshoe is above the door, they must leave by the same door through which they entered or they will take the luck from the horseshoe with them.
There are many other theories:
- For luck in the New Year, sleep with a horseshoe under your pillow on New Year’s Eve.
- The crescent shape of the horseshoe can ward off the evil eye.
- There is luck in finding a horseshoe where the open space is facing toward you.
- Dreaming of a horseshoe will bring good luck.
- Some believe a horseshoe hung in the bedroom will keep nightmares away.
