Alrighty listen up here ladies, I am a VERY proud Hispanic woman but sometimes it's tough. The Hispanic/Latino community tend to be EXTREME BELIEVERS in superstitions & well that makes things tough for me. My boyfriend (Guatemalan) has been nagging me about the upcoming Eclipse this Monday & how I need to be careful. I ofc ignored him because I've never heard of this superstition before - but now his sister is nagging me on messenger begging me to wear a red ribbon on or around my belly b/c the Eclipse is no bueno for the baby. I'm now growing annoyed so I go to the greatest person I know, my grandmother (Dominican) but now even she is telling me it's true I must be careful not to look at the Eclipse. I'm so upset now! I love all things astronomy but fuck if my gram thinks it's no bueno then maybe it isn't? What do you guys think!?

@bryannajneal92, yeah it's bizarre. my grandmother is super religious so she claims she believes in it causing harm to the baby but not for superstitious reason. she says it has more to do with the strengths of the movement :.shrugs.: my grandfathers side however definitely has Dominican/Haiti/African roots so I know they would definitely be talking my ear off.
I'd say a lot if Dominican/Black families are big on that! It's the African roots in you momma! We are super superstitious. Just pray on it and have faith. If you're religious then pray as well.
I just googled about these superstitions lol. They mostly say lunar eclipse though this one is solar, you can fight back😆
Lmao I'm Dominican too I believe in nothing but God's will and that's enough lol my mom and everyone told me crap and my son thank God nothing even happened
@qoldenxrose, 😂😂😂 I'm Afro Cuban, I KNOW! I can't do shit without it being about something. I'm not gonna lie, some of them do have me thinking..
