Superstitious tradition motivates King Charles to frequent the Tower of London

by

As a history enthusiast with a soft spot for royal tales, I can’t help but be captivated by King Charles’ unique connection to the Tower of London‘s ravens. It’s fascinating to see how even a monarch as prestigious as him is bound by tradition and superstition.

It seems even King Charles can be just as superstitious as the rest of us.

It has been reported by Hello Magazine that the King of England often goes to the Tower of London to monitor its famous ravens. These birds, who have been serving the UK since the time of Charles II, are officially part of the Tower’s history. Legend states that if these ravens were to leave the Tower, it could be seen as a warning of catastrophe for the entire kingdom. Therefore, it makes sense that someone would want to keep track of them!

King Charles’ apprehensions are justified

In the words of an old saying, “Bearing a crown weighs heavily.” This year, King Charles shared his feelings upon learning about his cancer diagnosis. He described it as quite unexpected when thinking back on the initial news and considering what his treatment plan would look like moving forward. Naturally, anyone would be taken aback by such a life-altering announcement. Given this personal growth, it’s understandable that the King takes every opportunity to check on the ravens.

It appears that the King has grown more anxious about the security of his realm due to recent happenings beyond the royal family. As per Hello Magazine, King Charles is planning to pay visits to families who have suffered from recent crimes within the UK. These encounters are likely to offer some solace to the victims, but the King will still face numerous issues once he finishes his current duties.
