I remember my Dad (also a diviner) would occasionally come out with some old folk tale, like:
If you cut off a cow's horns on the wrong phase of the moon, it'll bleed to death. (I don't remember which phase)
or
if you did a hole and refill it, depending on the phase of the moon you will either have not enough dirt of dirt left over. (I don't remember which phase went with which outcome)
So I've just added a new one:
If you take the sheet metal off an old tractor, paint it and try to put it back on, it will either be too small or too large depending on the phase of he moon when you took it off and tried to pout it back on. Only in rare instances will it fit.
(again I am delinquent in keeping track of moon phases)
