Throwing Change Into Wishing Wells

This is one of the most popular ways of making a wish while surrounded by lots of tourists in crowded and usually picturesque Italian or French markets.

The Celts and the Germans were the first ones to use this belief system, and their explanation was simple: they thought the water inside wells was accommodating gods, and had been put there by the deities themselves as a present. Throwing coins in was therefore a way of giving thanks to the gods. If we come to think that wishing wells in Europe can garner little under 3 million pounds a year, one cannot help but wonder if it wouldn’t be better to use the money instead to play pokies or slots across the world.
