Dirt
......English superstition claim that dirt has luck-giving qualities and that being too worried about cleanliness risk cleaning one's luck away.
......Many a house wife would disagree with this folklore... But in some area of world bring mud into the house is a lucky act, particularly in January, while those moving out of a home will leave some small area such as a fireplace unclean so that that the new occupants do not have too move into a house from which the luck has been entirely brushed out.
