I keep getting so-called "bad" omens coming to me. I've gotten a lot of black cats crossing my path. Once as I was walking down the street late at night, a black cat was sitting, staring at me and waiting a little ways down the path. Obviously that was a little scary to see, so I didn't go down that way, and just went home (actually that was probably a good idea, I was going down that way to visit someone that I should not have).

I went for a bike ride a half hour ago. I saw a crow or a raven, with its back turned to me; didn't fly off or anything. About 15 or so minutes later I went down the same way - this time the crow or raven (sorry, i can't really tell the difference) was facing me; staring at me, and caw-ed a bit at me.

Also, to add, a friend did my tea leaf reading for fun - what came up was a wolf, and an old lady

I don't know what all of this means, but they don't necessarily seem to be "good" omens. Can anyone help me? Im very afraid that something is going to happen tome

  1. Ok first of all, you will seriously know a raven - they are as tall as a 5 year old.  Crows are not bad luck, they are messengers.Question here is - what was the message? Or was it even a message for you? Could have been pure coincidence, since crows won't fly very often at night.

    Black cats are also not necessarily bad luck, but they can also be messengers.  Could be it was waiting for you to follow.

    As for tea leaves - http://emmalouiserhodes.com/articles/rea...

    And a wolf and old lady are not even shapes found in standard tea leaf readings - so the reading was meaningless and for fun.

    Stop looking for trouble, because when you look for it, it WILL happen- it's called a self-fulfilling prophecy.


  2. I have three black cats. They swirl my ankles constantly, and I never blame them for anything bad that happens to me. They are just cats. A black cat is good luck in England and Japan.

    As far as ravens being considered bad luck  - a single bird is actually considered a good omen, seeing two or more is supposed to be bad. Several ravens are kept on grounds at the Tower of London in London, England. Supposedly, it's believed that if the ravens ever leave the tower, the city will fall. They clip the raven's wings to ensure this doesn't happen!

    A wolf indicates jealousy, or that you are keeping friends with person(s) who are dishonest, and the old woman is a sign of happiness.

    I'd say you were sitting pretty good. Stop worrying about bad things until they actually happen!

  3. Black cats are cats.  Are you afraid of tabby cats?  Calicos?  A fear of black cats dates back to when they thought witches could turn themselves into cats.  We have two cats, one is black.  He's a rescue from death row at an animal shelter.  He  also has the sweetest personality you will will ever find in a cat.

    Crows are birds.  The are also highly intelligent birds.  They mate for life and live in extended families.  If a baby loses a parent, the aunts and uncles will help raise it.  There are some amazing study results on crows.  

    If you believe in a crow as a portent, then the meaning of crows being near is to warn you of a trickster or a deception in your life.  it is better to be told to keep your eyes opened than to be blissfully unaware of deception.      

    If you believe in kitties as portents, then kitties usually ward of disease and they keep a lookout for a wayward spirit.  

    If you keep believing in bad news, you can make it happen.  Personally, I think the signs are in your favor.

  4. If you keep concentrating on that which you fear, you shall draw it to you.

  5. All of the things that you have mention so far are pure superstitions.... There is no way A black cat or a crow or reading tea leaves can bring you bad luck... And even if you don't like it... There truth is all of that bull-doo-doo is in your mind and they have not one ounce of truth attached to them....

    The only thing that can bring you bad luck is something that is created in and by your own  mind.............. I don't Give a d**n that someone uncle cousin mother aunt boyfriend former lover best friend saw a crow or a magpie eating a black cat that has crossed your path.. and you walked under 5 ladders  while watching all of this... None of those things can bring you bad luck... And if you want me to explain them all to you drop me some e-mail and I will explain any or all of them away........... And please don't even bother knocking on wood.. for all that will do for you is hurt your knuckles......

  6. oh really i feel sorry about you all what you need a good boy who can stay with you for 24 hours and you need a very good s*x relastion to forget but the proplem iam from lebanone  to far always say i hate   cats and iam not afraid from cats i think you to much beautiful because cats look on beautiful girls only is that true .you are beautiful .dont ware black color ever because they like black colors.and if your hair is black change it kiss you bye you little doll

  7. I think you need to re read what you have written.  These omens haven't been bad, they have been warnings that have stopped you getting into trouble.  I would recommend looking into your spirit totem animals, as that is what this sounds like to me.  the black cat is definitly a guardian animal for you.

    Blessed Be

  8. I don't think the cats or ravens are bad omens... just animals on the prowl who you happen to pass by.

    As far as the tea leaf reading, wolves and old ladies are not bad omens either.

    Be careful about interpreting things as bad omens... ever heard of self-fulfilled prophecies? What you believe will happen, will happen.
