superstitions Explanation: Superstition is a pejorative term for belief in supernatural causality: that one event leads to the cause of another without any natural process linking the two events, such as astrology, religion, omens, witchcraft, etc., that contradicts natural science. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superstition |

(Superstition) rituals Explanation: Witchcraft e spell parecem-me muito fortes para designar simpatia. Creio que "superstition rituals" ou simplesmente "rituals" reflitam melhor o sentido de "simpatia". e.g. "Ritual to remove bad luck". |
