RE: ADSactly Folklore: Magic mirrors of the soul

in #folklore5 years ago

You have made an excellent post and an excellent compilation of all the stories where a mirror has been determinant. While reading, I remembered a belief that exists in Venezuela that says that if you stand in front of a mirror on San Antonio Day at 3:33 in the morning, you will be able to see behind you all that you will experience in the future. In the same way, there is a legend that speaks of an ancient mirror that has the soul of a person who incites you to commit suicide. The detail is that nobody knows where that mirror is right now and it can be in any house anywhere in the world. I really enjoyed reading this post, @ladyrebecca.

The belief you mention sounds a lot like the superstition about Halloween, which says a girl has to eat an apple in front of a mirror, than start combing her hair and her future husband will appear in the mirror.
