Friday the 13th

 Today is Friday the 13th!

The weekend is here, but before the weekend, today is 'Friday the 13th'. There is a popular superstition associated with this day, as it is considered unlucky. Friggatriskaidekaphobia is a common superstition  and refers to the fear of Friday the 13th; it brings a mix of anxiety and intrigue.
There are no strict, definitive reasons why Friday the 13th is considered unlucky.  
But this Friday the 13th might bring a little extra magic.

Tonight, not only is there a Cold Full Moon but the Geminids meteor shower will illuminate the night sky, it’s a great opportunity to leave superstition behind and make a wish on a shooting star.

Space.com has information about how you can watch the shower AND they are also offering a live stream!
