Hello MysticTieya,

I'm very sorry about your grandmother

Sometimes with omens like this, we can't know for sure what they meant until something happens. Perhaps you could start keeping a journal of when you see owls and jot down your feelings about what happening at the time. Take care.

I'm sure this is going to sound like a very common occurrence but it's not. I live in a highrise and I rarely get birds on my windowsill until recently. In the past few weeks, I've been having birds land on my windowsill. I live in a corner unit and have windows going all around my apartment and it keeps happening. Usually the same time of the day (around 3pm).

Today (just now, really) I had 3-4 birds land on my windowsill. Very beautiful feathers, I could only see the colors because the sun was shining in. Purple and green feathers. And it felt so weird because they were like.. looking into my apartment at me.... it kind of stopped me in my tracks. Like they flew to my window, sat there, and stared at me for several minutes, on different windows too.

I know there are birds everywhere but this feels special.

When I catch critters peeping in the windows, I like to say they're watching 'people tv' ... lol. Depending upon the time of year, there might be more birds in the area with fewer places to perch and rest. If you feel it's significant, though, then perhaps there's some insight to be gained there.

I tend to reserve 'significance' for animal behaviors that are absolutely, undeniably unusual. You're right, birds are everywhere, but if one walks over and pecks at my shoe, it's then I stop and consider it a meaningful exchange. (Not without checking to see whether I picked up an earthworm.) The poor things practically have to do triple backflips, unroll a scroll and read a proclamation before I'll take notice... but when an animal DOES have a message, there's no doubt or 'maybe' about it. What makes the encounter magical is whether the moment is significant to you. Take notice of what you're doing, thinking, or feeling when it occurs. You'll find your answers there.

Hello everyone!
I've been working on a break-up spell, asking for justice. I'm working with the hands of Saint Michael and Marta Dominadora (The Filomena Lubana syncretism). It has been really hard to work with one part of the couple, the candles of that part did not light, or just get melted in a very bad consistence, like if it was petroleum asphalt. Wind used to come and blow out the candles of that person and things that complicated the situation. After a few days of being working on that spell with Martha Dominadora and ask her to dominate the person and confuse the spirits that are probably protecting her, the candles went lighted on immediatly. I asked Santa Martha for her help and I pray psalms also.

Today is the 5th. day of the 7 days spell, but i'm posting because of something very unusual happened today.
I was about to work, and when I was lighting the candles I started hearing a noise, I was trying to identify from where I came from, and I just realized that it was a bird. (in the building where I work there's no light that's why it was difficult for me to see what it was). The bird started to fly just like crazy and confused, it was hitting itself all over the roof and walls then it just fell down like one meter from where the work was and the noise of its wings stopped as soon as it fell down like if it was already dead before it fell down.

Immediately one of my old dogs got inside that room and got out. I took a lamp trying to light to see where the bird was. There was no sign of the bird. I went out of the room and the dog was eating it. But as I said before, the bird stopped making noise as soon as it fell down, so I think it was dead and that's why it did not make any noise even when my dog was eating it.
This time the I felt the work easier than the other days, I felt that I finally could access to dominate the situation with that part of the couple with who it was complicated to work.

I'm working a traditional hoodoo candle and bottle spell. the 3rd. day I just finished filling the bottle and I put it upside down in a disposable metal tray just on the corner, the next day the bottle was in a different place of the tray but it was still upside down, just as if someone was moved from one place to another. (No one can access to this place, just me.)

Does anyone have any interpretation for the sign of the bird? Thank you!

Today a small bird flew into my house and my cat caught it in mid air and killed it! I'm freaking the hell out my family has drilled into my head birds flying into the house are death omens. And this bird perched over my children's bedroom door before my cat killed it! What should I do I have Chinese wash, hyssop and Florida water on hand oh and frankencense and camphor and about a dozen blessed st Benedict medals any advice?

stillsosola ,

Remove the bird and bury it off the yard of course. Then cleanse the house with the Chinese Floor Wash, then smoke the house to cleanse it. Set a candle in each room dressed with protection oil on it after the work. Though to me it does sound like the cat took the hit for you and protected the home from the hit. You can read the Bible in Exodus 12 when the Angel of Death passes over each house that is dressed according to God. Camphor in the 4 corners of a room with a spot in the center is also traditional to cleanse.

Well I threw what was left after I got it back from my tom out into the field behind our neighborhood. Where I'm at there's really nowhere to dig off property and a canal separates us from the actual field so running water may help? And thank you I'll do everything you prescribed. But what about my cat? Should I worry about him or just take it as he's the official family protector now?

I would just tend for the cat naturally he took the hit stopped the omen or evil happening. You can put a tiny bit of fiery wall of protection oil on the name tag, let it dry over night and put it back on the kitty. Running water would be acceptable way of disposing of the bird.

Many cultures see birds as messengers or spirits communicating with you. I also know its bad luck to kill one or break their eggs so dont do it LOL. Pray to God asking to clarify the meaning of the sign or omen and try calling spirits you are working with or ancestors to the bird to see if it responds to one.

Hello MrsSchaeffer2020,

We don't do divination on signs etc. here on the forum, so I would suggest you get a reading from someone from AIRR to gain more clarity on what this blue jar may represent.
www.readersandrootworkers.org/

Different spiritual traditions associate different meanings to blue jays, but they are generally known as loud, clever, tricky birds who are both beautiful, intelligent, and live as "outlaws." A reader is your best bet in understanding what the presence of this particular bird is meant to symbolize for you.

Good luck.

I appreciate the responses from both of you. I didn't mean to ask for something that required a divination. I just couldn't find one word on blue jays on here at all to even get started with.

And I assure you I would never intentionally kill anything let alone a baby anything. The dang thing is obstinate (which I have learned is usual from my research), but I wouldn't hurt it for being so. lol

Dear Ones, I’m sorry if I’m posting this in the wrong place. I’ve already introduced myself, and I looked for the proper section to post this question, but can’t find anything that fits. Please move this if needed.

I preformed my very first full moon ritual the other night. It went really well. I prayed my heart out, created a magic circle, lit candles, cleansed the area and ourselves with holy water beforehand. Afterwards I saged the entire property inside and out. I felt very good about my first ceremony.

Yesterday I went out to the orchard (we have a large semi-rural yard and an enclosed fruit orchard. This is where my outdoor altar is and where I did the ritual) to clean up so as not to scare the gardener away. Right in front of the doorway to the orchard I found this beautiful black feather. It’s amazing. Approx. 16” long. I researched the feather atlas and the closest match is a raven feather.

I’m so excited about this and feel that it was left there in the doorway intentionally and as a gift to me. But, I would love to hear what you all think of this. I’m very new to the world of magic, but have lived a lifetime of high strangeness. What could this feather mean?

I have a photo, but don’t know how to attach it here.
Thank you all for your advice. Peace.

A feather that falls from the sky is generally taken as a sign of great good luck. The species of the bird may relate to the type of spell being cast or it might be a sig to you that this particular species of burd can be your ally.

LVAngel · Unread post by **LVAngel** » Sun Aug 18, 2019 11:40 am

Thank you, catherine. I’m excited thinking I was left a gift, and praying it’s a good omen. I live in a semi-rural area and see birds often, but never have I found a feather this large. I do believe it was left for me intentionally.

Right after reading your response yesterday I went out to check on my orchard and pick the peaches. The orchard is the place where I did my ritual on the full moon. The circle I created was still intact. As I was picking the peaches I was overcome with a dizziness and I had to return to the house. I felt faint, shaking uncontrollably, and craving pure sugar (I could have eaten granulated sugar if I had it). I almost passed out. When I recovered I went back to the orchard, but as I approached a wild rabbit ran right up to me. It had no fear of me at all. It came within 3 feet and seemed to be as docile as can be. The encounter went on several minutes and I even took video, because no one would believe me. I’ve lived here for 6 years. We have hundreds of rabbits. They run at the first sight of us. I’ve never, ever had a rabbit do this before.

So, this is kinda freaking me out. We just recently built an altar in the orchard (which is another weird story, because I found images of yours and copied the colors way before I ever found your website). The day after my first ritual I find the black feather at the doorway (our orchard is enclosed). The following day I am overcome with dizziness and then a wild rabbit runs up to me! Do you think this is all coincidence? I told my husband I must be going crazy.

My life has been filled with high strangesness. I’m afraid to even talk about all the weird stuff for fear people think I’m a cuckoo head. My husband thinks I’m nuts, but he’s seen all this with his own eyes. I’ve just recently found your site and I’m intrigued. I believe I was born for this. I’m learning all I can.

Thanks again for your response and for allowing me to ramble on. Peace!

LVAngel,

I believe your ritual allowed you to become more sensitive to the natural world around you. The feather? I usually see it as a gift and that I'm on the right path. Coming close to an animal? Could be that you should be trying to build trust with the spirits you want to work with. The birds head? I can't really say.

To me, signs are deeply personal and I have learned the meanings over time. Looking at what happens from the time I see the sign and what happens after. The signs that I am given I don't think would mean the same to you. I would start to write these events down with what you think they mean and then keep track of what happens after.

Hello LVAngel,

I second what terra_rising has told you and suggest you start writing down these events and what transpires after them. You may begin to see patterns emerge.

It does sound like you've opened yourself up to the spirits of the natural world. Birds and animals are highly sensitive to energy, so they may be sensing your new spiritual awakening. If you want to gain more clarity on what's happening, you can get a reading from a member of AIRR, who can also advise you on what to do next. Find them here:

Thank you all for your responses and great information. My husband assured me the bird skeleton was already in the yard and it must have gotten blown over to my altar by the summer night breeze. I’ve added the skeleton to my altar. It looks scary up there. Do you think I should remove it?

The feather is very special to me and I believe with all my heart it was a gift. In fact, last night we were watching the sunset when a black raven came down to drink out of our pool. I’ve never seen ravens in our yard. This is super exciting and I’m doing a deep dive into google to learn all I can. I want him/her and their spouse (if they have one) to stay around.

Now, the bunny running up to me blows my mind. We are a little country out here and I’ve never had a rabbit act that way in the past. The rabbits out here are wild and skitterish. They don’t just hop up to people. I bought a box of bunny food to see if it will return. We also have adorable bats that live near our home. They swoop down very close to our heads. I think they are curious about who we are. Country life is amazing!

I prayed for some very specific things on the full moon. Time will tell if things start to happen. I’ll keep ya’ll posted.

Now, I have another question (advice/help/suggestions/support), but it has to do with my hair. It’s a long and sad story. I’ll go find the correct thread to post it in.

Thank you again for your help with the bird questions. Peace, Love, Happiness to all.

LVAngel --

In asking about hosting or venerating a bird skeleton on your altar, you are starting to move away from "Omens" -- the subject of this thread -- and into questions about the construction of personal altars, which is a very different area of thought and practice.

As for myself, i would not have anything on my own altar that looks, feels, or seems "scary" to me. However, other people i know enjoy these "scary" tokens of death. To each his or her own. Your mileage may vary.

Here is a link to the forum thread where folks discuss the construction, maintenance, and dedicatory possibilities of altars:

Altars: Questions and Answers
http://forum.luckymojo.com/altars-quest ... -t124.html

At the end of this message i will post a link to a very good book on altars written by our friend (and Forum Moderator) Phoenix LeFae.

I agree with others that the situation in your life right now is one of opening yourself to being a helper to the animals ad plants of the natural world. The bunny reminds me of the old nursery song, "Little Cabin in the wood, old man by the window stood, saw a rabbit hopping by, knocking at the door...." If you don;t know it, look it up.

Animals are in trouble now, and so are plants, due to human overpopulation (the cause of climage change and global warming). They are asking us for mercy and for aid.

Bats are not birds, and their meaning as omens is "spooky" in European folklore, but very, very "lucky" in Chinese folklore. Please read more about the symbolic and magical meanings of mammals, such as bunnies and bats, as omens in this forum thread:

Hello All,

Please I need help to a bird always coming to my compound every time of the night from 8pm once me and my family has entered the house and lock the doors. The bird flies around and keeps shouting and always come down to inside my compound and walks around and has a very large sharp tune shouting at intervals for hours before the day break (morning) but will be very quick to fly away once someone is trying to open the door or shine a torch at it. But the bird will always come back after some time.

I have consulted many of our local root workers here in Nigeria, some of them told me it is the night people (witch) and after several cleansing and root work etc nothing happens and the bird keeps coming. I am now tired because I have spent a lot of time and money in this and it seems disturbing to me but still wants help for this bird to stop coming to my compound.

NOTE: some years back maybe 3years to 5years ago, I bought this lucky MOJO money spell (the eye in the piramid candle spell) which I did although I did not notice any sign of the bird. It was recently my wife said the bird has been coming for a long period but could not say exactly when she started seeing the bird. Just a question, I was now thinking if there is any Thanksgiving spell I should have done/or need to do after the candle piramid spell? Just asking.

Any suggestion will be highly appreciated. And I kindly redirect to the appropriate section if this is not where I am supposed to bring this.

I also did record the birds shouting sound but did not see where to attach it for clearer understanding of the bird type. I could not be able to take its picture because it flies away immediately it hears small noise.

Thank you all
Samson

chukstel,

WOW. That sounds like an awfully troublesome guest you have. Does the bird have a nest in your house or perhaps young that it keeps coming back to? I have no magical advice to offer. On the practical side, I'd say some strong incense burnt at night might drive it away. Tibetan ghost purging incense might suit the job. Or have the family beat on pots or pans to drive it away. Large plastic statues of predator birds like owls, hawks, or eagles hung around your house may help as well. It works to protect gardens from hungry birds so it may work for you. You could also make them from paper mache and paint them as a project. This could be a cheaper solution.

I don't believe the pyramid candle spell is connected to this. If it is a bad spirit, the Tibetan Ghost Purging incense will take care of it.

Good luck.

Hello Terra Rising,

Thanks for the reply. At least I rest my mind that the piramid spell has nothing to do with it. This is cleared.
OK I will try to put your suggestions into play to see how it goes.

The bird has no nest or young one in my whole compound at least I have done thorough search for such.
I will equally try to remove my mind from the bird coming.

Thanks again. I will also look at the incense stuff too.

Dear Lucky Mojo readers,
Years ago a lot of jack daws made a ring in front of my house. It was like they wanted to warn me for something. They were also always around. I was pregnant and apparently my husband was having an affair with a colleague of him. He never admitted the cheating. He always told me she went after him. She is pure evil thats true but it takes two to tango. I’m also sure she hexed us back then. She wanted that my husband would throw me out of the house with my baby and little girl. Back then I did a sour jar and a love spell by Mrs Bri. This helped us to move on.
During 7 years everything went ok.
But I found out that the contact at work started again. My husband says that they are only colleagues now. But he afmitted the cheating back then. During this period I found on my land were new grass was growing a young jack daw on his back on the ground in the morning. I was giving water to the grass. The bird was having convulsions.
At first I was scared. But I had the feeling I had to help him so I took a little basin and a towel. I took it of the cold floor and rapped it in the towel and put it safe in a bush. I saw that other birds might have picked him. The day after the bird already moved itself and some flees were around its wound. I gave him water with sugar and it gave him strength, the day after he was gone, flew away I think.
What does it mean? Also: we went to France for a few days of vacation. When we arrived a heron flew in front of our car and landed next to the car. When we went walking my husband saw a dead chickadees. And the they after we saw two birds of prey flying (hawks? But not sure) in circles. They were screaming/talking... What do you think about it. I’ve been working with St Cyprian for the truth to come out and several love spells and break up spells and also a love myself spell. Things start moving but I don’t know if its worth the hurt and the energy to move on and give it another chance. I did several divinations and most of them are with different results so its difficult.
Can you please advise ? Blessings

Sarda,

I believe that signs are very personal and can mean different things to different people. Seeing a hawk for me means opportunity but for you it could mean something else. Jack Daws weren't native where I grew up so I don't have a meaning assigned but it sounds like they warned you before and may be doing it again. I would get a reading from a member of AIRR to find out what your husband is up to if you have suspicions. It's sometimes difficult to read for yourself because of the emotions and attachment. It's hard to have clarity when so much is invested and it would be a good idea to work with Clarity products if you haven't already. It will help you see everything clearly before you make any decisions.

There was a dove near my garage one day, did not fly away as birds usually do. Later that day or the next found it dead near my garage. I usually see or hear crows, which warn me of danger, but have never come across a dove. Should I be concerned?

ivezkikenit ,

Doves are symbols of love, also in the Bible used by Noah, a symbol of Gods Covenant, when Jesus was Baptized a White dove ascended on him. Generally a dove is a good symbol. A dead one may indicate a spiritual ending, or a need to end something to start something new, such as a job or a relationship.

You can always get a reading at AIRR to get a detailed look at the situation.

Hello to all of you wonderful moderators, what is it if you see an owl at night? I was sitting outside in front of my job on break the other night and an owl comes and sit on a pole about 3-5 feet away from me. It kinda freaked me out a little. Thanks to all

Unread post by **JayDee** » Tue May 09, 2023 12:07 pm

Iamabeliever,

You have to consider 1. It is natural to see owls and it can be a product of interaction with nature. 2. Were you thinking, praying, asking for a sign or recently asking for one? 3. Does seeing an owl have significance in your culture?

An owl has traditionally been associated with the Greek god Athena.

I have read it is a symbol of wisdom, some say luck, others a warning of danger.

It's not a bird that has been discussed in the forums in proper detail. So I've decided to share pieces of information I've grew up with in regard to storks.

What's widely believed in folklore about storks is that these birds bring babies in their strong beaks, early in the spring when they return from migration. A Christian legend in particular talks about how at the birth of Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary did not have any soft and warm swaddling clothes for her child. Then the stork plucked its finest feathers from its chest and made a soft nest for baby Jesus. Since then, Christ blessed the stork to be the protector of children and young mothers, making it a symbol of motherhood and birth.

If you see a stork flying above you, it means you can expect a good journey.

If you see a stork searching for food in a field, it indicates that you will have a prosperous year.

If a stork builds its nest on the roof of your house, it signifies that you will have great luck throughout the year and will be protected from troubles.

However, there's a warning: Whoever destroys a stork's nest or kills a stork will be cursed for their entire life and will only experience misfortune. They may even lose their own home and family. My maternal grandmother always spoke about a family in her local village. The father hunted a stork. Soon after, his whole family died in a fire.

BalkanDiviner,

I remember so well, when travelling with my family through Austria in the mid 1950s, the villages with Stork nests on their chimneys. The storks migrated to Egypt every Winter, i was told, and their return to Austria each year was a cause for celebration and happiness.

Hi Miss Cat! I'm so happy to hear you've travelled in Europe during the mid 1950's. I'll make an educated guess and understand why you probably have not been to Romania who was under the grasp of communism at that time.

Yes. That's correct! But in fact, it's not only related to storks. The return of all migratory birds (storks, sparrows, nightingales etc) stands as a moment of celebration. When I was in kindergarten, we would always glimpse outside in early Spring with excitement as flock of birds appeared on the sky and marked their return to our region!

Hi, BalkanDiviner --you are correct, we could not visit "Communist Bloc Nations" during the 1950s, anthough, once, when on a hike through the woods in Austria, we accidentally entered Hungary! The people in the first village there spoke German well enough to tell us we should turn around and go back lest we be caught and accused of being spies! It was a fun adventure and ended well, back at our little penzione in Austria.

My baby chicken just died. No physical signs of the cause of death. Does anyone know if that is a sign?

JenByers,

Sorry to hear about the death of your baby chicken.

A sign is generally understood as a linked event. Without knowing what you are doing, i could not say if it is a sign, because i do not know if, or to what it is linked.

I look for signs in groups of three, but not all do.

The magical qualities of hundreds of herbs, mammals, and birds are described in this book, with folkloric hoodoo spells for use in practical conjure,

That makes sense to me. A few years back I had 3 squirrel signs. And another time 3 lizard signs. I feel 3s are consistent with me too. Too bad about my chick…I’m just remembering I did have a friend a few days ago give me a dressed black chicken foot for my business. I appreciate you! Jen

This week in "It's All Ephemera" we catch up on "Hoodoo in Theory and Practice in Progress," with a series of spells involving truth-telling and tattletales. They all center around the power of the American Mockingbird as the means to accomplish one's goals, with a side-trip into similar spells employing the power of Parrots, Catbirds, Cockatoos, Budgies, and Brown Thrashers.

This illustrated web page describes rural root doctoring of the early 20th century using bird tongues, feathers, and eggs to either silence people or make them spill the truth in court, in love, in family matters, or in social situations.

What does it mean if my cat brought a bird inside and put the remaining prices of it in front of my ancestral altar. ?!

Savannah97 ,

I am not sure of a specific sign that it means for an animal to do this. I do know, as an animal lover and a person who owns several, that it is a sign of love and care when an animal brings its catch to you. If the cat brought it to the ancestor altar, I would think it meant it was also offering to them. Id see it as a good sign of spiritual engagement in the home.
