Spinning, distaffs and spinning-rooms are used to be closely linked with superstitious thinking and behavior. The so-called distaff philosophy reflects the wisdom of the old black magic spinners. Their wisdom was known by the popular veterinary medicine. With the help of the collections of distaff philosophical thoughts the relation between distaff philosophy and popular veterinary medicine is shown.
