Superstitions … they can hold you prisoner if you believe that you must follow them.  It is that belief that is the jail keeper.  Otherwise, superstitions are no different than fairy tales.  You have your rituals, and you believe that if you do not follow them to the letter, taking every step in order exactly as you have always done it, then you will not achieve your goal or something will go wrong.  How do you know that something even better will not come of it if you change one of those steps or take not even one step?  You do not know, as long as you remain stuck in your superstitious patterns.  How to overcome this?  Step outside of the box into the circle of freedom.  Be here now every moment.  Simply flow and be guided by the inner voice that is never stuck, never fearful, never superstitious.  Got freedom?
