A terrible or irritating noise – a distinctly ill omen.
The Voice of a Man
If you’re talking to a man, or he sends you a voice message and you’re still unsure whether you want to go on a date with him, listen carefully to his voice and pay attention to the inner feeling it evokes – positive or negative. If needed, wait a bit. Sometimes, when the perception is negative, the voice may sound unpleasant to you, or there may be a tightening sensation in the body (most often in the abdominal area), or a faint feeling that something is wrong.
If he is truly your man, you’ll feel an expansion in the heart. Usually, this sensation arises automatically, without your intention – if your intuition is developed.
Nimittas Related to Animals
There are many nimittas connected with animals. A distinctive feature of this topic is that a person often perceives more nimittas related to their totem animal or spirit guide animal than to others.
For example, if someone’s guiding animal is a dog, many nimittas or mystical situations involving dogs will occur throughout that person’s life.
Examples of Signs:
Cow – a good sign, foretelling prosperity and blessing.
Thinking about a relationship and suddenly seeing a cat and a dog together – a bad omen, indicating quarrels and incompatibility.
A dog barking for no reason – according to Nimitta Shastra, may indicate illness that will affect someone in the family. Most often, it is a warning about a negative situation or an encounter with an enemy.
Seeing a black cat crossing the road from right to left – a very well-known bad omen. The cat is a mystical animal associated with the Moon, and the left side is also under the Moon’s influence, while the right side is ruled by the Sun. Many people report experiencing real misfortunes after such an encounter with a cat on the street.
Similarly, a situation in which a cat walks in the same direction from which a person has just come (and the person is about to walk back that way) is also considered an unfavorable sign.
In general, dogs, cats, and rabbits are regarded as inauspicious signs according to the Vedas – so much so that it is not recommended to keep them at home. In various religions, it is advised to perform frequent energetic cleansing of the home if such animals live there, as they attract heavy, earthly negative energies into the space.
In contrast, fish, cows, and elephants are considered auspicious signs in the Vedic tradition. Fish are associated with Jupiter and spirituality (Jupiter is also the ruler of Pisces), and feeding them is considered a meritorious act. The cow is sacred in the eyes of Indians, as is the bull Nandi. The elephant is linked with Lord Ganesha.
A dog following a person – an unfavorable sign, suggesting that one should be cautious about the people they allow into their circle. Can they be trusted? Are they true friends?
A bird building a nest within your property – a very positive sign, foretelling good fortune (unless the bird has a negative connotation, such as an owl).
A peacock – heralds joyful events.
A swan – a highly auspicious sign.
A stork – a benevolent omen.
A crow – associated with the planet Saturn and negative karma. Seeing a crow can be either a good or a very bad sign, depending on its behavior.
Positive Crow Signs:
A crow dropping something good near you or holding something useful in its beak (if it holds something unpleasant or old – that’s a bad sign).
