Revealed: Strange Wedding and Engagement Superstitions

Stay Away From the Convent!

There is an old superstition that says a bride who encounters a nun or a monk on the way to her wedding will be cursed with a barren life. In other words, she might as well have dedicated her life to a cloistered order because, just like a nun or a monk, she will not have children. It’s a rather grim superstition and it only gets worse from there.

Not only will a bride who encounters a member of a convent or a monastery be doomed to a barren life, but she will also be dependent on charity for the rest of her life, just as nuns and monks must take a vow of poverty and rely on the generosity of others.
