The James T. Callow Folklore Archive

WALK OUT INTO AN OPEN PLACE WHERE YOU WON'T (WILL?) SEE
THE NEW MOON THROUGH THE TREES. BE SURE THAT YOUR
POCKETBOOK HAS SOME MONEY IN IT. WAVE YOUR POCKETBOOK
AT THE MOON, TURN AROUND THREE TIMES, AND COME BACK O
THE HOUSE WITHOUT SAYING A WORD, AND YOU WILL HAVE
MONEY UNTIL THE NEXT NEW MOON.
