• While individuals by and large see superstitions
  as something funny nowadays, it is astounding
  that a number of us still hit on wood to keep
  away from bad luck, cross our fingers for
  luckiness, or try not to walk under the ladder.
• Here are 5 superstitions related to death and
  dying, which are still prevalent and many of us
  still believe in. It depends on you whether you
  choose to believe in them or not.

• Birds Are Bad Omens
• Since birds can move between earth and sky
  without much effort, people have since quite a
  long ago seen our flying companions as a
  connection between the real and the spiritual
  world. However, there are countless superstitions
  focused on birds as the connection with death. In
  many cultures, a bird flying into a home, and
  then sitting on the back of a seat, is viewed as
  a sign of death for somebody in the family.

• Funerals Should Not Be Attended By Pregnant Women
• Various societies have this superstition among
  them, and, even nowadays, you can find many
  literate people who follow this superstition or
  have doubts about it that whether its true or an
  old belief. Some clarifications go for fear that
  the soul of the dead will possess the unborn. In
  some cultures it is believed that if pregnant
  women attend a funeral, then the chances of
  miscarriage increase.

• While Passing A Cemetery You Should Hold Your
  Breath
• Just like the superstition that we should cover
  our mouths with hands while yawning in order to
  stop the soul from leaving our body, holding your
  breath while youre passing a cemetery probably
  stops the spirits from entering your body. Apart
  from holding breath, in some cultures, people
  avoid stepping on cracks on the road while
  walking in or near a cemetery.

• Thunder After Funeral Means That The Soul Has
  Entered The Other World
• In Christian mythology, it is believed that if
  theres a thunderstorm after the funeral, then
  its a sign that the deceased has entered the
  heave. In some other cultures, if a thunderstorm
  follows a funeral, then it is believed that the
  soul of the deceased is some warm place in the
  other realm.

• Flowers Grow On The Graves Of Good People
• In many cultures where burial is common and
  widespread, people believe that flowers grow
  quite quickly on the graves of people who were
  good and kind-hearted while they were alive in
  this world.

• Whether you believe in these superstitions or not
  its not important at all. Whats important is
  that you have knowledge about funeral cover that
  assures financial support for your loved ones
  after your death. The cost of a funeral is way
  too high nowadays and is expected to increase
  remarkably. So, by getting a funeral cover now,
  when youre alive, you can ensure that your
  family or companion doesnt have to bear the
  financial stress of organising a funeral after
  you leave them behind.
