Welsh Superstitions Many of the superstitions of the Welsh peasants with regard to New Year's day take the form of omens or auguries, foretelling joy or sorrow, prosperity or disaster, during the coming year. Thus it is a popular belief among this most in- teresting people that if a lamp or candle be taken out of a house New Year's day some member of the family will die before the new year - ushered in that day - is out. It is also a popular belief among them that to throw out ashes -or dirty water, or, indeed, anything else, is certain to bring misfortune to the entire household during the whole of that twelve-month.
