A leaning ladder forms a triangle with the wall and ground. Triangles represent the Holy Trinity, and violating the Trinity by breaking it (walking through it) would put you in league with the devil himself. This is how evil spirits get ahold of you.





If you think that is funny, it is just as bad as people saying a board game (an oujia board) can bring in evil spirits. Talk about 18th century thinking.

Ya, I know, I post a bunch of questions on ouija boards, but I can not understand how someone can be this superstitious these days. I am just like wow!

I have never heard that explanation of walking under a ladder before! Very imaginative! Ouija boards present a problem when the users tap into something nasty within their sub-conscience or on the astral (higher consciousness). What comes through can be harmful sometimes.....Blessings!

Well, I choose to avoid walking under ladders

but not because of your holy trinity theory, but because ladders usually contain workers, who carry tools, which could fall on my head. Not superstition, just common freakin sense.

But, I will let a black cat cross my path, I spill salt all the time and I have broken many a mirror in my lifetime.

No, wait, no wonder my life is so screwed! It is the mirrors, not my fault! lol...

Ouija Boards? I do believe you can call on spirits and the Bible says God does not like it. In a way playing on the ouija board is calling on spirits. I played with one in my teens and had a bad experience and stopped. I don't want a ouija board in my home.

Actually, the superstition about walking under ladders is based on the much more prosaic reason that walking under a ladder might expose the walker to such things as falling roof tiles, hammers, paint cans.

Much less mystic hoo-haw, I know, but there you are.

Yes, I've walked under a ladder. Wasn't watching where I was going and cracked my head a good one.

(it was a wooden ladder)

My head still smarts when I think about it. Ouch.

*now I have a headache... Where's my Alieve?

(I too have had a black cat... named her Tazz. We miss her so much... have opened umbrellas in the house, broken probably a dozen or so mirrors, My hubby saw me before the wedding... 13 years later... we're still married)

hmmm. walking under a ladder vs intentionally trying to have some mysterious spirits move a pointer around a board and tell me things. I'm amazed

I have walked under a ladder just to see other people freak out. Love to open umbrellas in the house too.

Ouija boards have been replaced by Bible Code.

Same principle, except it's like using a cross for the pointer.

Yup, and I have also spilled salt, I own a black cat, I have broken a mirror, I have opened an umbrella in the house and I have even stepped on cracks on the sidewalk.

Well, I haven't had the pleasure yet myself, but this incredible guitar genius and rock-blues musician I knew years ago once did, check it out:

Though I'm sure, if he were still around, he would continue saying Superstition Ain't the Way.
