Birds are part of our everyday life. It is not surprising that signs about birds are the most numerous among all folk observations. For a long time, birds have been predicting the weather, harvest, and even the birth of a child and the death of loved ones. Folk wisdom in this case applies to literally all cases in life. And there is no situation that our many feathered friends could not predict.
All signs about birds are so diverse that if you collect them all and publish them as a separate book, you will get a rather impressive multi-volume publication. But few people come to mind where such true statements on this or that occasion came from. In order to understand this, we will have to look deep into the age-old wisdom of the people and pull out the reasons for their appearance.
For example, there is such a sign: a bird shat - to be money. It cannot be said that this will definitely happen. But, we have to agree that this annoyance cannot but cause a smile. Most likely, such signs about birds are associated with the image of the messenger, which came to us from those ancient times, when the only means of communication were precisely the feathered "postmen". In addition, one should not forget that in many legends and sacred texts the bird appears as a link between man and the Divine.
But if a bird flew into the window - a sign advises to take a closer look at its breed. In this case, the nightingale will promise we alth, the dove - a quick wedding, and all the rest - nothing good, perhaps even the imminent death of one of the residents. Such an opinion is connected with the ideas of a person about the material "analogue" of the immortal soul and the messengers of God. We have to agree that it is quite difficult to imagine how something intangible that is inside every human body leaves it sooner or later, just like the incorporeal messengers that come to a person. And who is best suited for their role? Of course, a beautiful (or not so) winged creature that is closer to the sky than anyone living on earth.
As mentioned earlier, by and large, all signs about birds portend either a change in the weather or the amount of the crop. In such cases, everything is quite simple, even science can quite explain the often mysterious behavior of the feathered population of our planet, which in these cases is associated with their "inner instinct" and the desire to move to places with a better climate. The people were leftsimply link this behavior to climate change to come.
By the way, such signs about birds are the most truthful and work in almost 100% of cases. If this did not happen, then such a failure in no way indicates that the omen does not work. Rather, in this case we have to talk about failures that come from within the feathered prophet.
Summing up, it is worth recalling once again how closely connected the two worlds are: the world of man and the world of nature. Our whole problem is that, moving to cities, we move further and further away from nature and involuntarily forget about the immortal heritage of our ancestors, in which signs about birds occupy only a small part.
