Some Turks believe that when you set a fire (a small fire like for barbecue), you shouldn't put it out using water. Because you're killing it and you'll anger its spirit and the spirit will curse you afterwards. Instead, you should use soil to put it out or let it burn until it ends.

Okay. I remember a thread from yesterday about casting evil spirits away by pouring lead into a bowl over someone's head. Turks have strange customs and beliefs.

or banging their pots during moon eclipse to save the moon from being eaten lol

In some rural places in Austria superstitious people bury a dead cat or dog under the doorstep of a new house using the same burial rites you would use for a human. They think this will force the spirit of the animal to protect the house.

black people can't use cooking ranges

Haha yeah, I caught that one too. Seems very odd to me.

Indeed we do

We knock on the wood 3 times and pull our ear lobe when we hear somethign bad happens, so that it does not happen to us

When we see a nightmare, we go tell it to a running water (like river), so that river takes the nightmare away and we forget it

Some of our graves have small water holes at their foot, so that their soul does not get thirsty

Before we sacrifice an animal, we talk to it so that it forgives us

Before some Turks cut trees, they beg pardon and tell the trees why they're cutting them

When someone passes away, a piece of metal like knife is put above the corpse. So that it purifies the soul and protects it from evil ones.

When we want to make a wish, we tie a piece of cloth to a sacred tree.

When something bad happens in our home, we set some salt and leaves on fire so that the bad stuff goes away and never happens again

Turks do the same except skull of an animal is hung over the door instead.

Ha, we got that wood knocking thing like that, too. That's cute with the animals, trees and water reserve for souls.

What would count as a sacred tree to tie a piece of cloth to?

>What would count as a sacred tree to tie a piece of cloth to?

Whatever locals see as holy. But as far as i noticed, it has to be somewhat big and its branches have to be close like this

eaten by what ?

When miners go down into the shaft they drink a shot of alocohol, then pour another shot and pour it into a dark place of the mine they can't see. It's called the devils share because they think under the earth they're in the devils area and must pay their respects to him.

In certain nights towards the end of the year farmers burn incense in their homes and barn to protect it from evil spirits that go berserk in those nights.

When you're climbing in the alps and have to sleep in an alpine hut, you must put aside a small bowl of milk or something similar in a corner for the mountain spirits or they might steal your stuff or kill you.

Heh, Bergdeutsche.

Its some Amerislut girl tho

Giving women rights turned out to be a mistake, who knew

Fuck off to pol

Nice traditions

When there is drought, Turks put stones in the river to make it rain

When you want your kid do pass an exam, you give him/her "blessed water" or "blessed candy" or blessed anything edible

We tie a red cloth around a woman's waist or head (only after she has given birth) so that albastı won't steal the baby

You said in the KC thread alevis do the most bizarre stuff, I'm an Alevi Kurd bull and don't do anything weird

dragon/snake

Do you do the egg thing like Latinos do, where you "capture evil" in the egg after sliding it over parts of a person's body which hurt?

>Alevi Kurd
>Kurd

that's why.

So only the turkish insects do it? What do they do?

his name ?

Ejderha

Alevi Kurds are actually just LARPing Armenians who became "Alevi" so that they avoid Enver

I don't think I'm armenian bro

Wood knocking comes from ancient Indo-European tree/nature-worship, and survives in any area where Indo-Europeans live or used to live (like Turkey).

There are many superstitions in my shithole. One of the strangest is the belief that when a dog howls like a wolf in the night and you hear it, You are supposed to be close to death and you or some of you family member will die in the incoming days. Jokes asides, I live among rural folk, my parents come from a rural area and these retards take this superstition as some sort of sacred rule.

It's probably because water will give a quick and noticeable sizzle of death.

true

but it might indo europeans. you know, something shared between indo europeans, altaians and other folks

Sitting at the corner of a table means you won't get married for 7 years.

When you talk about something bad that could happen, you have to spit three times or else it'll happen (known as ''opening your mouth to the devil''). Nowqdays instead of spitting people just say ''tfuu tfuu tfuu''

Mizrahim have a superstition against handing someone a knife or scissors. You have to place it on the table and have the other person pick it up.

When you see a bee or a wasp, you chant ''salt, water, salt, water'' repeatedly to make it go away.

we also have them

My mother always said "tuh" like she spit when she took it over directly from my hand. Else i had to drop it

Nearly all of our superstitions are based on ethnicity, with Ashkenazim having Euro supersitions (like knockin on wood), and Mizrahim having Arab/Islamic superstition.
Those two superstitions are from Mizrahim (though nowadays the tfuu tfuu tfuu thing is essentially a figure of speech even for nonbelivers, like saying ''god forbid'' in english), so I guess we both got them from contact with Arab culture.

I'm kinda glad to see that nobody copied our "superstitions". Christians and Arabs must have thought that we're nuts. We chase dragons, serve souls water, beg mercy from the trees and the animals that we cut, These only exist in Turkic cultures

respond to my question about chaoskampf ,kardesim

no. it's just ejder or ejderha

It's kind of odd. Almost every society had a shamanistic/animist phase, so you'd expect these sort of things to be universal. Are only based turks still in tune with their anscteral autism?

These traditions mostly exist in rural areas but we also have surviving traditions in urban areas

Are there Islamic puritans who go against these kind of things?

Some Islamists kvetch about it but they can't do anything

ever put out a fire?

Do you know what sound it makes? TOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. It makes people think that you're killing the fire. Not putting it out.
