Agni Purana (Jyotisha Selections) · by Vyasa
Chapter 5 · Omens
शकुनानि
संमुखेऽभ्येति विरुवन्यात्राघातकरो भवेत् ।वामः काकः स्मृतो धन्यो दक्षिणोऽर्थविनाशकृत् ॥ ९ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 232, verse 9.
A crow that comes to face him, crying, will spoil the journey. A crow on the left is called good. On the right it destroys gain.
Simple meaning: 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.
कोटरे वासमानश्च महानर्थकरो भवेत् ।
A crow in a tree hollow can bring great harm. On salty ground it is not good. A muddy one is good.
