Why Are People Afraid Of 'EMBER' Months? by Omooba77: 6:30am On Sep 01, 2015
From experience people are afraid more of 'Ember' months than other months of the year. Is it a myth or reality? Please share your experience. Happy new month of September to us all,God bless us all.

Ha! My brother. This is the period when many "village and city winch" will re-enforce their power to make some people shed tears.

I guess it's cause of the Christmas/end of the year is coming anxiety. People tends to lose concentration and thrown everything into the wind all in the name of "I must make money before this year end" It's like the widely accepted official time for individual KPI reviews for everyone. Especially for people that prefer spending their end of the year holidays at their home town.
As a result of this, motorist are prone to accidents due to lack of concentration, thereby making people to be wary of the last four months of the year. cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy



Happy New Month Nairalanders

This period, people travel a lot. So, accident rate increases.

And then the witches and wizards that would not want you to cross over to next year undecided this is the period they suck blood grin

All my Ibo peeps planning to go celebrate at their hometown, this is the period they closely monitor the containers grin they will do comprehensive insurance on their goods too.

And then any other thing u can think of.
Introvert and LadyF can add more... Only if they make frontpage cheesy

Happy "ember" period, good people.

May the Lord protect us.

Re: Why Are People Afraid Of 'EMBER' Months? by vizkiz: 7:59pm On Sep 02, 2015
I don't know why, neither do I care. All I know is that the Lord says "fear not, for I am with you"

He also said "no weapon fashioned against you sHall prosper"

He went ahead and made it more certain that "the name of the Lord is a strong tower, the righteous run unto it and are saved" wink

So tell me what I'v gat to fear? cheesy

Incase you still doubting, he said he has rebuked the kings on my behalf and he told them "touch not my annoited and do my prophet no harm"

Am I gonna fear "Ember" months? Nah... tongue

See as I just dey quote bible whey them no ask me grin

It is dreaded because it is always the peak period in business across the nation. (Seasonal sales)

But people who do all forms of business lick their tongues in readiness to hike the prices of goods and services.

The EMBER months climax in the month December which under normal circumstances should be bonanza period to mark the end of a fiscal year and Christmas holiday but greed which is a cankerworm that has eating so deep into our minds make it to be the opposite.

The daredevils in bid to make money quickly and brandish it to everyone who cares to take notice take to heinous crimes such as kidnapping, 419 to mention a few.

OP, now tell me, why wouldn't the EMBER months be feared?

It's a Nigerian mentality that bad things happen during the "EMBER" months.. I see it as lame as the so called "EMBER" months are just like every other months of the year.

We are too superstitious in this part of the globe!!!

It's true. It's a time when satan and his agents are trying to do last minute damage before the year runs out. We all need to be prayerful at this time cry cry

That ideology thrived 20 yrs ago - I still find it difficult to understand why people should be talking about it now and besides there is something about the 'EMBER' months and the occurrences around that period of the year that has an explanation. wink

I tire office. The same thing I was thinking about. What differentiates September from March.
Don't be gullible, if you want to pray against evil pray it all year round, not just in the 'ember' months.
