Quelques-unes d\u2019entre elles seraient synonymes de malheur et d\u2019\u00e9v\u00e9nements dramatiques, tandis que d\u2019autres apporteraient la chance. \u00c0 en juger par ces superstitions, le P\u00e8re No\u00ebl ne serait pas le seul \u00e0 circuler dans la nuit du 24 au 25 d\u00e9cembre. <\/p>\n<p>Apparently, ghosts dread the 25th of December terribly, and for this reason, they prefer to hide somewhere. However, at midnight sharp, some choose to leave their doors ajar, to allow ghosts and spirits to leave the premises.<\/p>\n<p>It is also said that misfortune befalls families who travel to attend Midnight Mass but do not attend. Those who lose their way pay the price by being swallowed up in the swamps. Those who do attend should not leave the church during the consecration, otherwise they witness the procession of the dead through the village. <\/p>\n<p>Whoever digs a hole in a cemetery at midnight will find a fortune in gold. Whoever finds a hazel tree will see a golden branch grow from it. If they are lucky enough to cut it down between the strokes of midnight, they will be rich forever. Woe to those who fail, however, for they will join the dead. <\/p>\n<p>Si une m\u00e8re donne <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blognoel.com\/en\/characters\/jesus\/\">birth<\/a> \u00e0 un enfant le jour de No\u00ebl, celui-ci jouira d\u2019un avenir des plus prometteurs. En outre, l\u2019enfant sera \u00e9pargn\u00e9 de la noyade et de la pendaison, et toute sa vie durant, il b\u00e9n\u00e9ficiera de chance et conna\u00eetra le bonheur. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to some beliefs stemming from pagan festivals, many superstitions are associated with Christmas.
