Friday the 13th

Friday the 13th: "

If there's one day you don't want to walk under ladders, break any
mirrors, or run afoul of any hockey-mask-wearing lunatics, it's Friday
the 13th. The day, which occurs one to three times every year, is
synonymous with bad luck, and folks on the Web are eager to know how it
got such a scary reputation.

The urban legend experts at Snopes.com
offer several theories on why Friday the 13th is so feared. The site
writes that 'some of the more common theories link it to a significant
event in the Christian tradition said to have taken place on Friday.'
The big examples include the crucifixion and Eve offering the apple to
Adam in the Garden of Eden.

And then there's the number 13. Many buildings don't have a 13th floor; some airplanes don't have a 13th row.
Clearly, many people are a bit worried about it. According to
About.com's urban legend expert, the aversion to all things 13 may have
begun when early man was learning to count. "Primitive man had only his
10 fingers and two feet to represent units," this explanation goes, "so
he could count no higher than 12. What lay beyond that — 13 — was an
impenetrable mystery to our prehistoric forbearers, hence an object of
superstition."

Another theory:
Thirteen became feared because it represented femininity. Some believe
priests vilified the number because it 'corresponded to the number of
lunar (menstrual) cycles in a year.' That number was 'revered in
prehistoric goddess-worshipping cultures.'
