7+ Ways Nature Can Predict Blessings or Misfortune

I am always looking out for signs in nature. My grandmother taught me to watch nature.

Did you know?

Here are some examples of common animal-related superstitions:

• Owls:
• Hooting owls are often seen as harbingers of death or bad omens in many cultures.
• Birds:
• The entry of a wild bird into your home is sometimes seen as a sign of impending death or bad luck.
• Dogs:
• Some believe that dogs have a sixth sense, can sense good or bad people, or that a howling dog means someone is about to die.
• Snakes:
• Snakes in the grass are often seen as a sign of impending disaster.
• Cats:
• Stepping on a cat’s tail is said to mean you won’t get married that year.
• Horses:
• A horse with two whorls on its forehead will be more difficult, and changing a horse’s name is considered bad luck.
• Foxes:
• In the past, fox brushes were hung above doors to ward off evil and bring good luck, stemming from the belief that witches could turn into foxes.
