The fascinating answers to the questions of everyday life are all in Love, Luck and Lessons for Life. Why do lovers 'tie the knot' and keep their letters safely bound with a red ribbon? Why is it unlucky to open an umbrella indoors or split your sides laughing? What fate might befall you if you found a beetle walking over your shoe, a fox crossing your path, or if you dream of roses? What signs do country folk trust as good forecasters of the weather? And what charms and remedies are traditionally used to treat illnesses and ensure rude health?
