Enchantment Dismantled

Superstition and the Thinking Irrationalist
A Fiddler's Green Leaflet

12 pages, 4 illustrations, and copper foil leaf logo on the cover

Have you ever crossed your fingers or wore a special piece of clothing, telling yourself you’ll be luckier because of it? We all engage in superstitious behavior to some extent, even if we’re not sure whether it works.

By breaking down superstitions to their most essential parts, the exercises in this booklet can help you recognize the so-called irrational habits in your life. Following a four-step process, you’ll discover which of your superstitions actually help you and which ones are better left behind. Also included is a Renaissance-era talisman for bringing good fortune.
