Agni Purana (Jyotisha Selections) · by Vyasa
Chapter 7 · Portents
उत्पाताः
अग्निर्यत्र न दीप्येत स्रवन्ते चोदकुम्भकाः ।मृतिर्भयं शून्यतादि ह्युत्पातानां फलं भवेत् ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 263, verse 32.
Where fire does not blaze and water pots leak. Death, fear, emptiness and the like are the result of portents.
Simple meaning: A fire that will not burn and leaking water pots are signs. Portents bring death, fear and emptiness.
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.
