PART 2
IN MIDDLE AGES – BLACK CATS
By the time of the Middle Ages, the black felines were mostly believed to bring bad luck; they were the harbinger of evil tidings and also considered to be shape – shifters. It was widely believed that cats could turn themselves into human form and witches used the magical creatures to act as their spies or couriers.
Due to the satanic beliefs regarding black cats, there began years of massacre. Black cats were killed mercilessly in the Middle ages. The consequence was an increase in the rat population. This increase led to the spread of the Black Plague and several other harmful diseases. However, such incidents were not seen regularly in England but burning the felines in midsummer bonfires was common.
THE SAILOR’S PERCEPTION –
Unlike the perceptions given previously, sailors viewed black cats as positive creatures. Their supernatural powers brought good luck for the ship and the ship inmates. In fact, the belief was so profound that sailor’s wives also used to keep black cats at home in order to use its influence to protect the husband at sea.
By the mid – 19th century, the belief of the sailors also became varied. If the black cat walks into the ship and then walks off the ship, it spelled doom for the ship on its next trip. Also, a person will have bad luck if a black cat walks towards him and good luck if the cat walks away from the person.
Men’s skins have many colors, but human blood is always red.
