प्रदोषे कुक्कुटो वासे शिवा चार्कोदये भवेत् ।गृहं कपोतः प्रविशेत्क्रव्याद्वा मूर्ध्नि लीयते ॥ २८ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 263, verse 28.
A cock cries at dusk in the house, and a jackal at sunrise. A pigeon enters the house, or a flesh-eating bird settles on the head.
Simple meaning: A cock crying at dusk, a jackal at sunrise, or a pigeon in the house are signs.
मधु वा मक्षिका कुर्यात्काको मैथुनगो दृशि ।
Bees making honey, a crow seen mating, and palaces, gates or walls falling are signs.
अनिमित्तं तु पतनं दृढानां राजमृत्यवे ।
Palaces or gates falling without cause means the king may die. Dust or smoke filling the sky is also a sign.
केतूदयोपरागौ च छिद्रता शशिसूर्ययोः ।
A comet rising, eclipses, gaps in the Moon or Sun, or odd planets and stars bring fear.
