There are all kinds of unique tricks and techniques people use to get rid of bad luck, but some of the most common include tossing a pinch of salt over your left shoulder, burning incense, and carrying around a good-luck charm like a four-leaf clover or rabbit's foot. Many people also believe that doing a good deed can earn you positive karma and reverse bad luck.

I believe you can create your own luck. There are gifts that are available to all of us, and like any gift, you have to open it to access it. It’s really about knowing who you are through your astrological chart and what your strengths and weaknesses are and then working with that energy.
So rather than thinking, “I'm unlucky because this happened,” try tapping into the strength and the energy that you have within and that makes up your astrological chart and who you are.

As soon as you have identified yourself as somebody who's not lucky, you're going to continue to experience that same thing
. As soon as you take it on as your identity, the universe is like a mirror
. It says, “Oh, you claim that you're unlucky? Let me show you that in everything you experience for the next 10 years.”
You have to really become conscious that you've taken that on and decide that's not what you want anymore . Even when things are happening to show you that you are unlucky, you have to anchor yourself in something else. You have to find some way to laugh about the situation rather than take it seriously, otherwise you're going to get stuck.
As soon as you find that level of lightness with it, continue to practice that, because it's not easy to laugh when you're experiencing a bad luck streak, but being able to reframe is really important. Instead of it being, “I have bad luck,” think of it like “This is being removed from my life because something better is coming in. Nothing that is meant for me will miss me.”
Find what it is that works for you to not identify with the negative thought pattern, which is so easy to get sucked into. That's really why it's a practice, because it's often easier to default to “I want it to be this simple that the universe is out to get me. Everybody sucks.” It's so simple, but that shift is the difficult part. Something like an affirmation or a reframe can be really helpful . It's going to show you exactly what you're resonating with and what you're learning through.

Some people believe that hanging a dreamcatcher talisman above your bed will trap your bad dreams and prevent bad luck. Just keep in mind that some Native American and First Nations people consider the use of dreamcatchers by non-indigenous people to be offensive.

For peace of mind regarding superstitions, remember they have no scientific basis. Believing in your own ability to accomplish goals is far more constructive than worrying about bad luck.

Do nice thoughtful things for random strangers : make good karma, you get what you put out there.. try this.. for 1week, don't gossip, don't lie(if you can help it) don't even think about stealing(I'm sure you do not) be extra friendly, help people , but don't keep it in your head your only doing this to get something back, just do everything with a smile and big heart, it may not be immediate but I promise it'll come back 10xs bigger.
