She has always lived her life with beliefs such as these, and I have to say, its kept her going. She also reads tea leaves, and believes that you must stir your tea clockwise. Its funny how these beliefs become a part of your every day life, but we dont really realize how old the beliefs are, and there is usually a reason behind them. |

She would fret herself silly if my hair wasnt completely dry. I dont think this would be a fact, since colds and flu are caused by viruses. However, if you become chilled and fatigued outside with wet hair, your immune system will be somewhat depressed so that you'll more likely catch a cold, so Im assuming this is what she meant. ;) |

"Tea leaves reading" is a form of divination and it is a sin. Perhaps talk to her about it and ask her if she knows that the Holy Bible forbids it. Let God do the rest.
