- You ride a mule: anxious pursuits, rewarded if you get where you're going without interruption
- You ride or drive a mule: by one tradition, you will stay single, and childless if you are a couple
- Mules running loose: admirers, but no proposals
- A mule kicks you: disappointment in love

How you felt
