It's the first of November, and that means it's time to say...
"Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit!" 
This tradition, believed to have originated in the UK, is more than just a quirky superstition. Folklore suggests that by uttering these words first thing in the morning on the first of the month, we invite good fortune into our lives. The idea is rooted in the belief that rabbits, with their quick reflexes and keen senses, symbolize protection and vigilance—qualities that bring safety and prosperity.
Some say "Rabbits, Rabbits, Rabbits" or "White Rabbit, White Rabbit, White Rabbit," while others follow it with "Pinch, punch, first of the month, white rabbit!" Each variation carries the same intent: to ward off negativity and welcome a month filled with positive energy.
In my family, this tradition is a cherished way to start fresh—a small ritual that connects us to something greater and brings a renewed sense of hope.
So, here's to a month filled with good luck for one and all.
