Your heart loves it when you move.

Your joints love it.

Your muscles love it.

Your future loves it.

Presidents’ Day is a federal holiday celebrated on the third Monday in February; Presidents’ Day 2026 will occur on February 16. Originally established in 1885 in recognition of President George Washington, the holiday became popularly known as Presidents’ Day after it was moved as part of 1971’s Uniform Monday Holiday Act, an attempt to create more three-day weekends for the nation’s workers. While several states still have individual holidays honoring the birthdays of Washington, Abraham Lincoln and other figures, Presidents’ Day is now popularly viewed as a day to celebrate all U.S. presidents, past and present.

What is your superstition?

Some common superstitions associated with bad luck on Friday the 13th include:

Breaking a mirror: Breaking a mirror is said to bring seven years of bad luck, so handle glass carefully on Friday the 13th.

Walking under a ladder: This superstition stems from the idea that walking under a ladder disrupts the triangle, a symbol of life, and invites misfortune.

Spilling salt: Accidentally spilling salt has been seen as bad luck for centuries. To counteract, throw a pinch over your left shoulder to ward off evil.

Crossing paths with a black cat: Black cats, often associated with witches and bad omens, are considered unlucky, especially when they cross your path on Friday the 13th.
