Page 9 - SUPERSTITIONS IN JAPAN_Neat
P. 9
CONCLUSIONS:
• Superstitions change according to the
culture and history of the country. Which is
considered as good luck in a country can be
considered as bad luck in another. For
example: In Japan, a black cat crossing
one's path is good luck. On the contrary, in
most other countries it is bad luck.
• Therefore, there are countries that share
superstitions. This is due to the similar
cultural background they have or because
they import the superstitions. For example:
The use of the Maneki Neko or "lucky cat“ in
some Latin American countries.
