Although you’re a non-believer, what superstitions do you still have?
None.
Even things that appear to be rational deserve a skeptical approach.
Still making a list of Filipino superstitions, in the meantime . . .
"When you believe in things that you don't understand
Then you suffer
Superstition ain't the way"
I was raised with lots of them and I find it interesting that there is often a good reason for them. For example, you aren't supposed to put hats on beds because back in the old days people often had lice. Here's a link to explain some of the more common superstitions.

For the record, I don't believe in any of them.
Don't open an umbrella in the house, it's bad luck! Lol that's about the only one and as much as my son opens his in the house I've gotten over it!
as many as I can! rituals are fun! especially those of the satanic persuasion \m/
I work in medical care. Not sure it's completely a superstition, but I firmly believe in the weirdness that goes with a full moon.
I once had an aerobics instructor who was a nurse in the psych ward. She swore that the full moon does indeed affect patients. That was anecdotal, she had no proof but that was her perception. I've read there is no truth to it that we are just looking for connections to explain things that are coincidental. Waiting for the next study....... LOL
