Today is what English folks call "Good Friday". But in French folklore, it is FAR from being a good day. In fact, it was one of the most dangerous days of the year. You were forbidden from doing ANYTHING.
Don't do business or travel anywhere, else it will fail or bring you ruin.
Don't weave, or you'll bring death to your house.
Don't plough the earth, or it will bleed.
Don't go fishing, or you shall catch human corpses in your net.
Don't eat eggs, or you shall be devoured from the inside by snake-toads.
"Good Friday" was the horror day of the Easter week in old France.
