Earlier tonight, I was just hanging up the phone [landline] when I heard three very loud knocks of unknown origin. They appeared to come from just outside my house. However, no one was at my front or back door and there wasn't any other possible origin or reason for the three knocks [my house is brick.]
It kept bugging me to the point I went on the internet to look up if there were any "old wives tales" about hearing three knocks... and sure enough there were several different websites with similar info that discussed the superstition that when one hears three knocks it means someone close to you will die. Apparently this is a very old superstition, but I had never heard of it before. But now I wonder if those three mysterious knocks do have some sort of special meaning ??
I have another reason to be interested in the possible meaning of these three knocks... because in the week before my special needs son died suddenly and unexpectedly during a seizure, something else strange happened three times... something that puzzled me at the time... but only made sense after my son's death !!
