Friday the 13th

Friday the 13th From Wikipedia

This article is about the superstition. For other uses, see Friday the 13th (disambiguation).

Friday the 13th, also known as Black Friday, is considered an unlucky day in Western superstition.

It occurs when the 13th day of the month in the Gregorian calendar falls on a Friday.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_the_13th_(disambiguation)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_culturehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superstitionhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregorian_calendar


History[edit]

King Philip IV of France, in collusion with then Pope Clement V, had Grand Master Jacques de

Molay and sixty of his Templar brothers arrested as apostates on Friday the thirteenth of October

1307. This was done in order to claim the famed properties and wealth of the Knights Templars as

their own.

The fear of the number 13 has been given a scientific name: "triskaidekaphobia"; and on analogy to

this the fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskevidekatriaphobia, from

theGreek words Paraskeví (Παρασκευή, meaning "Friday"), and dekatreís (δεκατρείς, meaning

"thirteen").[1]

The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci

The superstition surrounding this day may have arisen in the Middle Ages, "originating from the story

of Jesus' last supper and crucifixion" in which there were 13 individuals present in the Upper

Room on the 13th of Nisan Maundy Thursday, the night before his death on Good Friday.[2][3] While

there is evidence of both Friday[4] and the number 13 being considered unlucky, there is no record of

the two items being referred to as especially unlucky in conjunction before the 19th century.[5][6][7]

An early documented reference in English occurs in Henry Sutherland Edwards' 1869 biography

of Gioachino Rossini, who died on a Friday 13th:

He [Rossini] was surrounded to the last by admiring friends; and if it be true that, like so many

Italians, he regarded Fridays as an unlucky day and thirteen as an unlucky number, it is remarkable

that on Friday 13th of November he passed away.[8]
