Useful tips

There are a lot of signs around us. Anyone who knows how to notice them sees life through and through. People have known since ancient times that there are birds that portend serious problems or even death.

They tried to avoid such birds; everyone was afraid of them. However, it was clear that at some point a bird would definitely fly into your yard, indicating the imminent departure of one of the household members to another world.

Owls are birds from the owl family, primarily living in open areas, but periodically leaving the steppes and meadows to visit villagers or residents of a small town. These birds are active at night, so the vast majority of people do not get the chance to encounter them.

Moreover, according to signs, it is very good for a person that their schedules do not coincide, which is why since ancient times the owl has been considered a harbinger of problems. A person who encounters this bird must keep his ears open, because he is in danger of serious troubles, and if an owl screeches three times near a house, it means that someone in that house will soon die.

An interesting nuance is that a person who should die due to this sign does not hear the cry of an owl. Other representatives of the owl family are also not held in high esteem - eagle owls, long-eared owls, tawny owls and others have a bad reputation as harbingers of death.

Birds and superstitions

Modern people do not like magpies, superstitions are so firmly entrenched in our subconscious. In ancient times, the magpie was accused of not wanting to make contact with Noah and board his ark. They say that a drop of the devil's blood is stored under the tongue of this bird, which does not make it attractive in the eyes of a believer.

The most terrible message is considered to be a lonely magpie. If it suddenly flies directly over a person’s head, then he should expect imminent death. The bird also likes to give less obvious clues by perching on the roof of a house. In this case, one of the family members in this house will go to the next world, but until the last moment it is not clear who exactly it will be.

However, there is no need to be afraid of a flock of magpies, because when there are more than two of these birds, then they stop causing trouble. Two + birds are harbingers of good luck, three speak of a wedding or a pleasant trip, four speak of good news, and five speak of a noisy feast.

People have firmly connected these inconspicuous little birds with the not-so-light inhabitants of our world. The ancients believed that the sparrow was the devil incarnate, which the witch hatched from an egg.

Sparrow was considered a villain. For example, they say that the sparrows greatly tormented the crucified Jesus, they mocked and mocked him. The birds were punished for this, so they move by jumping, but cannot walk.

Having such a reputation, it is not at all strange that the sparrow became known as a harbinger of death. If he sat down on your window sill from the street side and knocked on the window, then trouble in the house cannot be avoided; something will happen to one of the family members.

It is also a bad sign if a bird flies into your room. Often people who have gone through the death of a loved one say that on the eve of death a sparrow appeared in the house out of nowhere. Everything is too obvious, because the sparrow copes with its purpose even with closed doors and windows.

There is another belief that says that the sparrow is a messenger, and it does not necessarily bring bad news. In this case, the sparrow’s task is to inform you about interesting events that are about to happen. The bird not only carries news of death, it also has other, more expected and pleasant news in store.

Man, sign

Crow was very unlucky with appearance, because its gloominess automatically leads to thoughts of negativity. Moreover, it was these birds that always feasted on the battlefields, and also pecked out the eyes of those who died far from home. They say that the raven has the gift of foresight and is friends with the devil.

These birds are quite willing to show people their knowledge and skills. If crows begin to circle over someone’s house, then its inhabitants should be wary, since death is on the heels of some of them.

It is also considered a bad sign when a lone raven, perched on a branch, begins to scream. This is considered a warning that danger awaits you. Those who are caring for a sick person should be especially attentive to this bird. If a crow often sits on the roof of your house and croaks, this means that a sick person will die soon.

However, even despite their ominous appearance, in Christianity the crow is a bird that gives hope. For Christians, this is a bird that tells about everything that is happening in the world, and which warns a person about possible troubles, gives a chance to close a debt and pacify the soul.

This bird has always been the personification of love, purity and goodness. They say that angels often descend to earth in the form of these very birds. If you crumble bread onto a fresh grave, the pigeons will eat it, taking the soul of the deceased to heaven. Of course, this only works in the case of clean and respectable people. Crows fly for dead people who were bad.

Although pigeons are considered harbingers of good news in many cultures, these birds can also predict a person's death. As a rule, they simply hit the window; this is a sure indicator that death will soon come to this house. But since pigeons take only very pure people, there is no need to worry, because after saying goodbye to earthly life, such a person will find eternal bliss.

Anyone knows about the tradition when you ask the cuckoo to count how long you have left to live. This belief appeared for a reason, because the cuckoo is a guide to another world. The obviousness of death is when the bird will remain silent in response to a request.

It is also a bad sign when a bird responds while being behind a person’s back. This will indicate that the years of his life are already behind him, and only his departure to another world lies ahead. Do not rejoice at the clucking of a bird if you hear it from the north side, or if it comes from the mouth of a bird sitting on a rotten branch. These are also signs of approaching death.

It also happens that a cuckoo flies to a house from which a dead person is being taken out. The bird's cuckooing in this case should not be taken at the expense of the deceased; it actually gives a voice to the one in this house who will next go to the next world.

The cuckoo doesn't bring anything good. Even just flying over a town or small village, it warns people about a fire, and if it lands on the roof of a barn, then this is a sign that livestock will die.

Birds: signs and superstitions

The swallow is a rather controversial representative of the bird family. On the one hand, people really sympathize with her, believing that she builds a nest only in a good place, and the house she chooses will always be in abundance. On the other hand, there are also bad omens associated with this bird.

They talk about it as a harbinger of death. For example, if it flies directly over a person’s shoulder, it means that death awaits him. If a swallow knocks on the window, then it is considered good omen, however, there are those who believe that this is a very bad sign, foreshadowing the death of one of the inhabitants of the home.

The tit always lives side by side with a person, and almost never evokes negative emotions in him. There are very few signs associated with this bird, and all of them are good. As a rule, a tit carries news of a positive outcome of an event, prosperity, love and joy.

However, even this bright bird has its dark side. They say that if a tit flies into someone's house or simply knocks on a window, then death will soon come. The origin of this sign is due to the fact that the bird is considered a guide to the afterlife, and it comes for the soul of a person.

Use and reprinting of materials

Birds are constant heroes of folk traditions. Wild and domestic, harmless and predatory, local and exotic... Almost every bird has its place in the motley line of feathered predictors. Some of them are “responsible” only for the weather, without claiming the laurels of Nostrdamus. And someone brings news about the future. Although the birds themselves are unlikely to realize that they are messengers of fate; superstitious people assigned this role to them. But whatever happens in the world...

Folk signs about the nightingale

Many songs have been written about the inconspicuous-looking, gray singer with a golden voice. Even the most notorious pessimists do not expect harm from him. Judge for yourself: even the eternal fear of superstitious people, “a bird flying into a window brings trouble,” does not concern the nightingale.

Flew into the house

It does not matter how the bird got into the room - through a window, an open door or a chimney. In any case, the nightingale came to bestow wealth and happiness on you, and your task is to greet the messenger with dignity. Without sudden movements, so as not to frighten the feathered baby, open all the windows in the room wide and quietly go out. Let the bird find its own way to freedom.
It is considered useful to strengthen the effect of the omen by throwing three handfuls of millet after the nightingale in gratitude for the visit. Then a good prediction is guaranteed to stay with you.

Sings

No matter how you turn it, the nightingale flies with good news

If the nightingales give a voice, it means there will be no more frosts.
People say that these gray birds begin to sing only when they can drink dew from a birch leaf. The poetic interpretation has a real subtext: massive nightingale trills begin to spread in the air exactly after the first leaves appear on the birch tree.
If the gray “maestro” entertained the area all night, the day will be fine. Although some say: sunny, but windy.

Other

If you are lucky enough to hear the nightingale before the cuckoo in the spring, the summer will be fun and interesting. The first sound of cuckooing will be heard - you will be bored for all three months.

About the wagtail: what are the bad signs associated with?

The bright wagtail, also known as the pliska, together with the nightingale serves as a sign of a friendly spring. If it catches your eye, you can safely hide your fur coats and mittens in the closet. And the white wagtail bears the honorary title of the harbinger of ice drift. Once she appears, the rivers will open up in a matter of days.

Flew into the house

A healthy and cheerful bird mistaking your window for the street is a good sign. It is believed that it brings news of a child to childless couples, and predicts financial well-being for those who already have children. And if a guest behaves so boldly that she even treats herself to crumbs from your table, it means that great happiness is rushing to you, and don’t doubt it for a minute.
A sick wagtail symbolizes difficulties that can befall the inhabitants of the apartment. Please take note of the warning and try to be more careful.
A wounded bird is a sign of minor troubles.

In any “situation” you need to do the same as with the nightingale: open the windows and let the wagtail fly away. And if a wounded bird gets into your apartment and you are able to help it, the prophesied troubles will bypass your home.

Hit the window and flew away or crashed and died

A wagtail on the windowsill announces the approach of guests.
If a bird knocks on the window, it brings news. Most likely pleasant.
It’s bad if the bird hits the window and breaks to death. To prevent the troubles promised by the sign from falling on you, take the injured baby away from home, preferably to the park, and upon your return tie a red ribbon to the window. The color red is considered a special and powerful “antidote” to the bad message you have received. The main thing is not to strengthen it yourself with excessive nervousness.

Other

The yellow bird brings joy, the white one usheres in spring

A yellow wagtail spotted on the street is a sign of receiving good news. Those who have been struggling with some insoluble problem for a long time, after such a meeting can receive unexpected help and deal with all the difficulties in one fell swoop.
It is considered a colossal success to find a wagtail's nest. If you succeed, expect something big! Just don’t touch the nest, otherwise the prediction won’t come true.
There is also this version of the sign: a multi-colored wagtail brings joy and fun; seeing white ones means quarrels and tears. As luck would have it, you came across a light-colored bird? Monitor your behavior so as not to provoke a quarrel with loved ones.

About the woodpecker

But for some reason the signs didn’t like this hard worker in the red cap. Strange affair. What did our ancestors not like about the diligent and generally useful forest doctor?

Meet a spotted bird on the street, in the forest, near the house

If you have been suffering from a chronic illness for a long time or feel a loss of energy, try forest walks. Legends assure that the health of a person who catches a “tree doctor” at work will quickly improve. Certainly, Fresh air and physical activity work wonders even without a woodpecker... But why argue with a good omen?
But for some reason our ancestors considered a meeting with a bird in a populated area to be a sign of a sharp deterioration in their financial situation. Although it is impossible to trace the logic of the sign. What does a woodpecker care how tight your wallet is?
If a bird takes a liking to the fence near the garden, the summer will be rich in worms. It is clear that for such a prediction the housewives did not like the feathered worker, because the worms destroyed the harvest. But what does the woodpecker have to do with it? That's why he became interested in the fence, because there were plenty of larvae there.

A woodpecker in the forest is a good omen, near the house it is an alarming omen

It’s really bad if a bird appears near your home:

A woodpecker knocks on the roof - prophesies misfortune.
Picking at the wall - one of the residents survives. Some call this a sign of the death of a person unwanted by the bird, while others believe that he will just have to move.
If a barn, a bathhouse or any other non-residential building comes under the blows of a sharp beak, mice will start there.

Knocks on the window or breaks on the glass

A woodpecker rarely shows enough interest in human habitation to begin breaking through windows. Rather, he will be attracted by a wooden frame with illegal “settlers”! But if there is plastic in the windows, and the bird continues to jump on the windowsill and knock, signs advise you to beware of gossips. Perhaps in the coming days someone will try to incite false accusations against the inhabitants of the house or harm them in some other way.

A woodpecker that swoops down on your clean glass by mistake is no different from any other bird. It's sad, but there's no point in beating yourself up about it. It’s better to “get rid of the body” as soon as possible and hurry up to get the red ribbon and ward off the negativity. A regular shower is also considered a good remedy. Stand under it for a few minutes, imagining how the water washes away all your fears and misgivings, and then carries them with it into the drain hole.

Other

But anyone who hears the cry of a woodpecker will not have to fear for their life or the peace of their loved ones. The lucky one will have a wedding with his loved one and a big party.

About the parrot

Although the parrot is “not our bird,” it has settled in modern apartments long ago, firmly, and has managed to acquire its own characteristics. A cute lovebird or a noisy macaw can become not only an adored pet, but also a personal mascot for the family.

domestic parrot

Budgerigars create an atmosphere of warmth and comfort, amuse children, and bring joy to adults. And in the esoteric understanding they contribute to family unity.
Large parrots represent courage, agility, calculation bordering on cunning, and perseverance. If a person has been struggling with an inferiority complex all his life, let him add a cockatoo or a cockatiel to himself and try to gain from them the qualities that are so lacking.
A parrot of any breed brings prosperity to the house. Although, rather, the opposite is true: before the revolution, only very wealthy people could have an exotic talker at home. Over time, the sign “A parrot in the house means the family is prosperous” developed.

A stranger has arrived: should we catch him?

Would such a beauty predict bad things?

We all know that taking someone else's property is not good. Apparently, this is why, in the understanding of popular belief, a kind and completely positive parrot instantly transforms into a malicious dirty trick if it does not belong to us. A guest flying onto a balcony or into an apartment predicts:

Big trouble.
Minor fuss and excitement.
News: both good and bad.

...And sometimes a parrot is considered a sign of a new addition to the family, so don’t be foolish. And do not discount the opinion of esotericists who consider every bird that flies into the house to be the embodiment of the soul of the person who loved you. It is believed that if you catch such a parrot and place it in your home, it will protect your family from troubles. Still in doubt? Then think that by your action you will save the life of a tropical bird, which would certainly die on the street. And this is already a good deed and a “plus in karma.” But for complete peace of mind, check if anyone is posting missing parrot notices around the area.

Signs about birds of prey (hawk or eagle, falcon or kite)

Meeting a feathered predator in a city is such an extraordinary event that to many it seems like a real miracle and, naturally, immediately makes one think about signs. Although in reality there is nothing incredible here. Even in some areas of such a large metropolis as Moscow, there is a small representative of the falcon genus - the kestrel, which sometimes very dashingly makes turns among high-rise buildings and grabs small birds! But whatever the situation, there are some very interesting signs about birds of prey.

Flew onto the balcony or into the house

Despite the fact that the falcon is a notorious predator, its appearance in a living space bodes well. It is important here that the bird leaves the apartment without crashing against the wall and without harming the residents out of fright.

Sat on his head: is it a good sign?

Almost every bird of prey that circles a person carries a warning to him to be careful and not to trust everyone. There is a high risk of becoming a victim of deception!
A hawk emerging from behind the traveler's left shoulder symbolizes danger.

Even if it seems that everything is against you, and your plans are falling apart one after another, it’s time to roll up your sleeves and boldly rush into battle. Success will definitely come!

Only a brave and strong person can conquer the eagle

The chances of a bird of prey deciding to take a break on a pedestrian's head are approximately zero point one. The more valuable is such a sign! A bird on the head always serves as a sign of a person’s chosenness, and a bird with a “fighting” disposition is even more so. You won’t become a Sith Lord, but you definitely won’t miss out on what you want in life.

Other

If you pull eggs from an eagle's nest, you will not know peace until your last breath.

The song of a hoopoe promises a meeting with a boastful person.

Heron

The bird does not indulge in good signs, but it guesses the weather with a bang.

A meeting with a heron warns that you have to deal with someone belligerent, because this bird itself is quite aggressive towards other birds. For example, it often drives rooks out of their nests.
By the way, if such a robbery takes place on someone’s property, its owners will face difficult trials.
However, herons cannot be killed. The death of a bird also brings misfortune.
Before it rains, the heron rises high into the sky, and before sunny weather it begins to scream.

White swan built a nest

A symbol of fidelity and love, this bird brings good luck to those who see it floating on the water. If you are still looking for a life partner, say: “Be with a couple,” and your soulmate will definitely come into your life. If you see a snow-white handsome man soaring high in the sky, do the same, and the omen will work even more accurately. Just don’t even think about doubting the bird’s bright magic. Immediately search for your chosen one with full faith in success and upcoming happiness!
Whoever kills a swan will either die within a year or be financial position will worsen significantly. As they say, “Money for money!”

Another belief says: once in its life, before dying, a bird sings its only, but incredibly beautiful song. Alas, this is just a legend, because swans cannot sing.

If you see a turtledove (wild pigeon)

Formerly wild, the turtle dove has long been no longer afraid to settle in cities

What does a jay prophesy to a person?

Oriole

In Scotland, the oriole was suspected of having connections with evil spirits

And in the country of stern mountaineers they believed that killing an accomplice of dark forces was not a sin. And who would even think of suspecting a bird of evil inclinations?

The lively black bird also fell victim to a human slander. The Russian people called her a voluntary assistant to sorcerers and witches, and the Poles even managed to reward her with an unpleasant pedigree - they say, the devil cut out a wolf that was meaner and had more teeth, threw shavings into the grass, and from it a flock of jackdaws rose into the air. It is clear that meeting such a bird was considered a bad sign. Especially if the jackdaw decides to scream while looking at the traveler! Here it was imperative to inform the prophetess: “You are croaking at your own head.”

The noisy jackdaw is not the best predictor

In Europe, it is customary to be afraid only of a lonely bird. One jackdaw on a chimney or roof ridge means death, but a flock of jackdaws means the birth of a child and replenishment of the budget.
The more restless the birds behave, the worse the weather will be. If the flock screams all day, you can safely stock up rubber boots and umbrellas - the rain will last for a long time.
If, when sitting in trees, birds huddle close to the trunks, expect heavy winds.
Jackdaws fly high in the cold and land on the ground when it thaws.
The jackdaw is bathing - spring is beginning.

What does a peacock's cry mean?

The cry of a peacock predicts significant changes in fate, which will surprise you a lot. Fortunately, they will be positive.

Not a single rain will pass the attention of a sensitive bird

Before rainy weather, pheasants hide in the bushes, and before dry weather they sit in trees.
If in the evening the birds sounded their voices for a long time and calmed down with with great difficulty, the morning will be clear.

A rook in the sky is a special sign

Judging by the abundance of weather signs inherited by this bird, the rook was entrusted with a serious mission to set the timing of agricultural work, make meteorological forecasts and predict the future harvest. For our agricultural ancestors, the rook was definitely an “important bird.”

Rooks settling in the yard were considered a bad omen. The family on whose land the birds would settle was threatened with a protracted financial crisis and childlessness. Meanwhile, a flock of rooks that gets into the habit of flying into the yard to “stay” brings a period of incredible prosperity. Whatever the owners have in mind, everything will be given to them with ease.

Trusting all birds without exception is a thankless task. Thanks to the disturbed ecology, even weather signs, which have faithfully served farmers for centuries, are now failing. But if some bird predicts a good turn in fate, why not believe her? Good mood will always come in handy.

Soykin Day is celebrated on December 11, 2020 (November 28, old style). Among the people, this is a holiday to welcome the jay. This is a small bird with bright plumage, a crest on its head and a long tail. The most interesting thing is the fact that she can imitate any sound, from the singing of other birds to human speech.

In the church calendar on this day the memory of the martyr Irinarch of Sebaste is honored.

Once he was present at the execution of seven women. The pagans sentenced them to death because they, being Christians, converted their husbands to the Orthodox religion and refused to sacrifice to pagan idols by drowning them in Lake Sebaste.

Observing the steadfastness and courage of women, watching how they proudly branded their tormentor with shame, Irinarch realized that he wanted to become a Christian. He immediately declared publicly his decision and recognized Jesus Christ as the true God. After this, he suffered martyrdom at the hands of a fellow craftsman.

Traditions and rituals

The people called the jay the “prophecy”. They used her wings to predict their future.

Also on Soykin day they used coins to tell fortunes. To do this, they took several pieces and threw them into a snowdrift, and then took them out one at a time. If the first coin found turned out to be the largest of those thrown, then they believed that good luck would definitely smile on the person. If you came across the smallest coin, then this indicated that you should not count on success in business.

Signs

If a jay sits on the window that day and starts screaming, this is a good sign.

If you follow the jay you meet, it will open the way to happiness.

Something tinkles in the well on Soykin's day - to wealth.

Signs about poultry

When people talk about poultry, chicken and rooster immediately come to mind. The crowing of a rooster on the threshold of a house foreshadows the arrival of imminent guests. If brood hens behave anxiously at night and do not fall asleep, then soon disagreements and disputes with neighbors are possible.

If you keep geese at home, they can promptly indicate possible troubles in the near future. It is considered a bad sign if a goose lays 2 eggs or when a goose disappears from the yard for any reason.

Signs about urban birds

The swallow, magpie, crow, and dove live in cities, which has led to the emergence of many superstitions associated with them.

When a swallow has built a nest near your window, this bodes only good things and good luck will favor your home. But if the bird suddenly leaves the nest, then this is bad, luck has turned away from you for some reason.
If any bird easily flies into your window and soon flies out, then positive news awaits you. If the bird was restlessly darting around the entire room, you can prepare for equally disturbing news.
When a magpie flies near a sick person, you can expect a quick and successful recovery. Such a positive outcome can be evidenced by the rather energetic jumping of the magpie around the neighborhood of the house.
Crows are associated with not the most good omens, but still these are not harbingers of bad things, but only signs from fate. When a crow flies overhead for a long time and croaks quite loudly, you should expect trouble, and if a bird croaks on the roof of a church, then someone will die soon.
When a dove unexpectedly swoops down on you, this is a reason for joy; it tells you that any business you have in mind will definitely succeed.

Signs about the weather

There are a huge number of signs about the weather associated with birds:

if a magpie has built a nest at a high altitude, then the next month promises sunny and little windy weather, but if the nest is located quite low, bad weather should be expected;
when a crow screams loudly and does not stop moving from place to place, rain is expected;
a high flight of a swallow means clear weather, and a low flight means bad weather;
return of the swallow from warmer climes in early spring- before a thunderstorm is imminent, there should be weather favorable for growing crops.
