If your ear itches, you should cover the itching ear and make a wish that only good will be spoken about you. A common belief is that an itching ear means someone is talking about you.
If your eye itches, don't rub it. Cover it with one hand as you wish for something or someone you'd like to see.
If your lips itch, press them together and make a wish.
If your nose itches, make a small 'X' on the tip and make a wish. If the palm of your hand itches, scratch it and say the following chant as you wish for money:
'Money itch, money itch,
Money itch, money come true.'
If your hand itches (some say the right hand and some say the left), rub it on wood as you wish for money and say the following words, naming the hand that is itching:
'Left/Right itching,
Rub it on wood.
Wish for money,
'Tis sure to come good.'
A very old belief is that if your hand itches -- usually the palm is specified -- you will be getting money.
If your foot itches, you should stamp it three times and wish to go to a particular place. This no doubt stems from the belief that an itching foot means that you will soon travel.
