Law of contagion

Folk belief

The law of contagion is a superstitious folk belief that suggests that once two people or objects have been in contact, a magical link persists between them unless or until a formal cleansing, consecration, exorcism, or other act of banishing breaks the non-material bond. The first description of the law of contagion appeared in The Golden Bough by James George Frazer. Pseudoscientists, Bonewits and Bonewits have claimed parallels in quantum physics.
