Agni Purana (Jyotisha Selections) · by Vyasa
Chapter 5 · Omens
शकुनानि
नृणां रोमाञ्चजननी वाहनानां भयप्रदा ।ज्वालानला सूर्यमुखी विज्ञेया भयवर्धिनी ॥ ३४ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 231, verse 34.
Some jackals make men's hair stand up or scare mounts. Some have fire flaming from the mouth or face the Sun. These add to fear.
Simple meaning: A jackal that scares men and horses, spits fire or faces the Sun brings more fear.
प्रथमं सारङ्गे दृष्टे शुभे देशे शुभं वदेत् ।
Seeing the sarnga first in a good place is good for a year.
तथाविधं नरः पश्येत्सारङ्गं प्रथमेऽहनि ।
As the sarnga looks when first seen that day, so the person's year will go.
विशन्ति येन मार्गेण वायसा बहवः पुरम् ।
If many crows enter a besieged city by one road, the city will be taken by that road.
