Chapter 5 · Omens
शकुनानि
निवेदयति यात्रार्थमभिप्रेतं गृहे गतः ।एकाक्षिचरणस्त्वर्कं वीक्षमाणो भयावहः ॥ ११ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 232, verse 11.
If it goes into the house, it tells that the aim of the journey will come. A crow standing on one foot, eyeing the Sun with one eye, brings fear.
Simple meaning: 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.
अमेध्यपूर्णवदनः काकः सर्वार्थसाधकः ।
A crow with filth in its beak brings success. Other birds read like the crow.
स्कन्धावारापसव्यस्थाः श्वानो विप्रविनाशकाः ।
Dogs on the right of a camp harm brahmins. A dog barking at a shrine or gate can mean a ruler's death.
