I always wanted to know where this folklore came from. My Nana was really big into those kind a folklores but I never did get around to asking her why.
Personally, my left ear has been burning off and on for the last few months but it mostly happens when I about to fall alseep. It really makes me wonder how said person is really thinking about me...

Most all folklore or superstition is empirical. Burning ears and someone speaking of you badly can easily be connected by someone telling you it happened and time matched. The same can be said of itchy palms and money.
Pliny wrote on Ear's tingling in 77 BCE.

The myth I always heard about burning ears is that someone is talking about you.
Itchy palms meant that if we don't itch our palm, we would receive lots of money. Or we are gonna get some money. These myths are as old as the hills.
