Chapter 5 · Omens
शकुनानि
प्रथमं सारङ्गे दृष्टे शुभे देशे शुभं वदेत् ।संवत्सरं मनुष्यस्य अशुभे च शुभं तथा ॥ ३५ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 231, verse 35.
Say a sarnga is seen first, in a good place. One should then say good for the person for a year. And in a bad place likewise good.
Simple meaning: 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.
सेनायां यदि वा सार्थे निविष्टो वायसो रुदन् ।
A crying, trembling crow on the left in an army or a caravan tells of great fear.
