Agni Purana (Jyotisha Selections) · by Vyasa
Chapter 5 · Omens
शकुनानि
यातुः काकोऽनुकूलस्तु क्षेमः कर्मक्षमो भवेत् ।न त्वर्थसाधको ज्ञेयः प्रतिकूलो भयावहः ॥ ८ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 232, verse 8.
A crow on the traveler's favourable side brings safety and success in work. It is not to be known as one that earns gain. An unfavourable one brings fear.
Simple meaning: A crow on the traveler's good side brings safety. An unfavourable one brings fear.
संमुखेऽभ्येति विरुवन्यात्राघातकरो भवेत् ।
A crow crying in front spoils the trip. On the left it is good. On the right it ruins gain.
वामोऽनुलोमगः श्रेष्ठो मध्यमो दक्षिणः स्मृतः ।
A crow on the left going the right way is best. On the right, middling. Going wrong, it stops the trip.
निवेदयति यात्रार्थमभिप्रेतं गृहे गतः ।
A crow in the house shows the trip's aim will be met. One on one foot staring at the Sun brings fear.
