@folkloreum: old folklore - Old household belief held that mirrors should be covered or turned to the wall when a storm rolled in. Lightning and thunder were thought to disturb more than the sky—they unsettled the air inside the home as well. Some people believed mirrors could catch wandering spirits during violent weather, while others said storms thinned the boundary between worlds and glass made an easy doorway. So when thunder starts shaking the windows, the old advice was simple: turn the mirror away. #oldfolklore #folklorebeliefs #folktraditions #superstition #feralfolklorist
