TECHNICAL BELIEF IN OUR COMMUNITY
By Alfonso Paraiso
 


One of the technical beliefs among our people is in connection with the moon. In the changing from the old moon to the new moon, bathing is considered bad and causes death. People may think that when the moon is dead or when there is no moon and you take a bath you will trouble down and die instantaneously. They base this belief on the idea that the moon is possessed of life and that during its dying, it takes the spirit of people who pour water on their hands.
