The Mystery behind the Black-Cat
Black cats are considered very unlucky in the European and European-American traditions. Among Anglo-Saxons and Scandinavian people, it is said that one sets out on a journey and a black cat crosses the road ahead, one's only safe course of action is to turn back and return home. Tales of shape-shifting black cats and black cats who are in communication with the Devil are also a feature of European folk-belief. Concommitant with these negative feelings about black cats is the notion that they are particularly favoured as witches' familiars -- hence their almost universal use on Hallowe'en decorations.
In bright contrast to this image of the "evil" black cat, there is a "good" black cat -- the antinomian lucky black cat of the African-American sporting and gambling world. This black cat does double-duty as a representative of the black arts (including the granting of invisibility and the return of lost love) and as a bringer of money luck.
In the form of a figural candle, the black cat is burned in rituals designed to increase gambler's luck. Hoodoo products, such as the Lucky Mojo Brand Black Cat Sachet Powder, Black Cat Bath Crystals, Black Cat Dressing Oil, and Black Cat Incense shown here, are also popular with gamblers, especially those who play at cards and bet the lottery. In addition, a popular style of mojo bag for gamblers is the so-called Black Cat Curio Bag, which is decorated with a small black cat charm on the outside and filled with a variety of luck-bringing roots and herbs, including John the Conqueror root.
All the Best,

I'm not sure - but your post doesn't have any service picks - neither does mine - so I guess we are all in the right spot.Oh, this is the worst-looking hat I ever saw. What, when you buy a hat like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh? Oh, it looks good on you though.
