Romany Valentine’s Day Divination
By tradition many species of birds begin pairing off at this time. The Romanies say that if you are unattached, a bay leaf placed under your pillow on St. Valentine’s Day will induce you to dream of the person you will marry.

Romany New Year’s Eve Love Divination
To divine whether you will marry in the New Year, try throwing a shoe or boot into a willow tree. If it gets caught in the branches, the answer is yes. You are allowed to throw the shoe no more than nine times because, in spells, nine symbolizes completion.

Is It Raining?
Today (July 15) is St. Swithin’s day. If rain falls on St. Swithin’s day, the Romanies believe, forty days of rain will follow.
