Friday the 13th occurs when the thirteenth day of a month falls on a Friday, which superstition holds to be a day of bad luck. In the Gregorian calendar, this day occurs at least once, but at most three times a year. Any month's thirteenth day will fall on a Friday if the month starts on a Sunday.i have quoted the exact words from Wikipedia.
Lets see why its considered a black day.
1.Friday has been considered an unlucky day because, according to Christian scripture and tradition, Jesus was crucified on a Friday.
2.Black Friday has been associated with stock market crashes and other disasters since the 1800s.
3.There is also a superstition, thought by some to derive from the Last Supper or a Norse myth, that having thirteen people seated at a table will result in the death of one of the diners.
4.The connection between the Friday the 13th superstition and the Knights Templar was popularized in the 2003 novel The Da Vinci Code. However, experts agree that this is a relatively recent correlation, and most likely a modern-day invention.
However according to me,i do not believe in bad luck,juju or superstitions because i believe in Jesus Christ.I know and trust that God has sheltered and covered me,my family and friends with the blood of Jesus.
So do Friday the 13th have any impact on you?
