There is a toad that keeps coming back to my house.

The first time I saw it on the patio, I put it in a bucket for a few minutes, then let it go.

Next time it was on our door step. It just sat there, I looked at it for a while.

Today it was in the basement. I stared at it for a while, then decided to put it in a box and take it outside.

I like toads and really want to keep it, but feel bad if I do, so I won't.

Is this an omen? If so what does it mean? Is it good or bad?

The 3x I saw it was in the course of about 2 weeks. It is odd for a toad to be in this area.

  1. No omen.  Just an irritating amphibian.  


  2. A toad is a good omen especially if you take care of it.  Some Australian aborigines and Native American groups believed that frogs were the bringers of rain. In India, frogs were believed to personify thunder in the sky. Even the word for "frog" also meant "cloud" in Sanskrit! In China, they see the "TOAD", not the "man" of the moon. The toad is also considered "one of the five poisons of yin." They say that eclipses happen when the "toad in the moon" tries to swallow the moon itself!

  3. Toads are good sign.

    You don't have to worry.

  4. I promised my BFF I'd try to be optimistic today so I say it's a good omen if I'm wrong, it's all my BFF's fault. And the toad probably is stupid or wants you to feed it or something.

  5. In medieval England, toads were considered lucky. And today, many people see frogs as a symbol of good fortune and progress because they can only move forward -- never backward.

  6. A toad is just a toad period so take care of it.... And enjoy it company..........

  7. It's good in the sense that toads like frogs are dying out so seeing that you have one must mean that the area you live in is environmentally friendly and healthy.

  8. Just a d**n frog. Now it may gives you warts.

  9. in asian countries, frogs/toads are concidered to bring about good furtune and luck.

    so be ready for some good in ur life.
