a double yolker!

I love duck eggs and the other morning I was doing a ‘proper’ breakfast for myself, such is life now that these things have become small highlights of my day and obviously my diet is important as well as not skipping breakfast which has been somewhat normal for me in everyday working life. I have also taken to thinking about my next meal whilst eating the current one, simply because so little is happening in my world at the moment and food has become something of a point of interest, whether it be because there is nothing remotely of yumminess in my fridge, its vitamin and health values or just out of sheer boredom.  Anyway, out came a double yolker! Now I know that this is not only quite unusual and the practical and non superstitious of you out there would just say that 2 little ducklings might have come as a result for one lucky duck had it not been in my fryingpan, but  I found myself wondering what superstitions out there might have just landed in my lap...could this be some sort of sign.... and yes I know, maybe Ive lost all senses now, but that was never going to be very difficult really, and given my new status and rather random trains of thought these days, I do seem to be looking for answers in everything....

So I hit the www in search of some sort of enlightenment!

What is the significance of a double yolker?.........

1)      According to norse mythology, it means there will be a death in the family.

2)      Apparently  it means that a previously infertile couple can expect to become pregnant, most likely with twins, or to become pregnant multiple times.

3)      The pre-medieval Anglo-Saxon tradition that a double-yolk foretold a wedding (the double yolk in a single shell representing the union of two people as one.)

4)      Most traditions hold that the egg is a symbol of life and fertility, or something relating to the life cycle.

5)      Plentifulness and good fortune in the wiccan religion. Expecting one thing and getting two fold what was expected. It foresees good things to come, usually romantically or financially.

Well, not overwhelmed with number 1, 2 is pretty useless to me right now, 3 would be nice but still somewhat lacking on that front given zero man in life, 4 similar to 2 except that I can run with the lifecycle thing and if in my case that means that this new phase of my life might be a different direction etc that might bring me new and unexpected stuff, then I can perhaps go with that, so Im really probably best of with number 5. Ive definitely had 2 fold more than I was expecting by getting a horrid bone disease that could see me severely debilitated in but  a few  years, but it might also mean that my life is somehow changing for the better in some way that is beyond e at the moment and might just be a little confounding at best right now,  and if it does bring better finance and prince charming then all the better! I do feel that I have had more than my fair share of rubbish to deal with over the years and this has somewhat knocked me well out of the playing field recently, so if as number five says that good things are to come, then lets get up and have em!
