Popular wisdom does not bypass any of the manifestations of life. Whatever happens, for this there will always be an explanation among the signs that have accumulated in the box of folk wisdom.
For example, why does the right ear itch? Because it needs to be cleaned? Not at all. Any elderly person without hesitation will answer this question as follows: "Someone remembers." But this is not the only consistent explanation of why sudden itching occurs in the ear.
Do signs matter in the modern world?
Not all modern people tend to trust signs. Few people ask, “what is it for?” If the right ear itches, and this happens regularly. Usually people visit a doctor’s office and try to find out if they have otitis media or any other disease.
Without a doubt, this is the right and rational approach. However, if the doctor claims that everything is in order with health, but the itching continues? What do they do then? Not every person turns to a neurologist or a psychotherapist in an attempt to understand why his ears itch and how to get rid of this sensation. Most people still remember the existence of popular signs and seek an answer to their question among them.
How did these signs come about?
No doubt, everyone knows that signs, like many other elements of folklore, are transmitted orally from one generation to another. But how did they come about? People rarely think about this issue.
Meanwhile, thinking about how signs could be formed, even the most inveterate skeptic will begin to respect folk wisdom. An omen is actually nothing more than a conclusion reached by people on the basis of statistical data obtained during the observation of certain laws.
In the old days there were no developed scientific technologies, huge cities, medicine, and much more. But thanks to this, people lived in harmony with nature and possessed those personal qualities that are lacking today. This attention, the ability to notice various patterns and remember them, respect the forces of nature and accept them. In ancient times, they did not ask why certain patterns were traced and did not consider any manifestation to be unimportant, devoid of meaning. People simply noticed that a specific event comes for a particular incident. And since this combination was repeated with enviable constancy, it became an unshakable regularity for human consciousness. In other words, it turned into a sign.
Since it was much easier to observe oneself and family members than for something else, the signs associated with physiological manifestations accumulated much more than those concerning other aspects of life. For example, folk wisdom about itching in the ears is explained differently depending on the days of the week, the zone of concentration of sensations, and even based on the time of day.
If it scratches
Why does the right earlobe scratch? The most famous signs associated with this type of itching are:

Scandal is possible not only in the family. The body may well send a warning about the high probability of skirmishes with colleagues or partners.
If the ear burns and itches
The most famous explanation of why a person’s right ear burns and itches - someone remembers him or scolds him badly. But these are not the only possible explanations of why a person feels a sudden itch.

If the whole ear is itched
When the lobe of the right ear is scratched, the omen considers itching to be a forerunner of bad weather and scandals. But what does itching mean without strict concentration and not accompanied by fever? It is in this way that the ears most often itch, as a whole, which means that it will take a lot of interpretations of this feeling.

If the ear itches only inside

Why ears itch depending on the days of the week
It has long been noticed among the people that the significance of a particular phenomenon may vary depending on what day of the week it occurs.
At the beginning of the week, itching warns of the possibility of changes in life. The itching on Monday morning portends good news, and unpleasant in the evening.
On Tuesdays, ears itch to an unexpected meeting. Morning itching is of such importance, while evening itching warns of receiving good news.
On Wednesdays, itching in the ears is evidence of gossip from ill-wishers, that people are gossiping about or scolding him. If the ear is suddenly combed over during the day, this is a sign that a quarrel will soon break out or that a person will be a forced participant in the conflict.
On Thursday, an ear itch reports that work is favorable for a person. That is, if there is a desire to discuss something with the authorities or colleagues, then you need to "seize the moment" and do it.
It is not for nothing that the people say the saying “Friday is a lecherous woman.” Ear itching on this day portends a date and a romantic option for leisure. However, if your ears suddenly light up early in the morning, then this may be evidence of upcoming costs. An itch that broke out in the late evening warns of the presence of danger on the road.
On Saturday, the ears itch to the bad news. If itching caught on Sunday, then its meaning is loss, in the literal sense of the word. That is, there is a great risk of forgetting an umbrella or gloves, losing any other thing.
