Cat signs. Folk omens about cats

AT At all times, since ancient times, people have believed that animals are able to predict certain events. And the connection with the world of the unknown in animals, in particular in cats, is very strong.
Cats have always been considered a special prophetic animal, able to predict the future. The behavior of the cat was closely observed and certain primates were used to judge upcoming events.
According to folk beliefs, the cat feels all sorts of changes - both for good and for bad. It is said that by observing the behavior of a cat, one can predict the weather, the arrival of guests, impending illness or misfortune. There are a lot of different different signs, allowing the cat's behavior to determine upcoming changes and events.

To a change in the weather

The cat is fast asleep or belly up - to warmth and heat.

He sleeps with his muzzle under his belly - to bad weather or cold.

Curled up in a ball - to frost.

He sits in the stove - to the cold in the yard.

Dissolves the tail - to the blizzard. Licks tail - to a blizzard.

Licks its tail, hides its head - to bad weather and rain.

Licks a paw, washes - to the wind (sun).

He licks his paw and smoothes the hair on his head - the weather will be fine.

Licks the skin - to bad weather.

He raises his hind leg - to the wind.

It scratches behind the ear - to rain or snow.

Scrapes the wall with its paws - to the bad wind.

The floor is scratching - mind you, blizzard, wind.

He sharpens his claws on the leg of the table - the weather will change.

The cat sneezes - to the rain.

Many old sailors still believe that cats on a ship bring good luck and are able to foretell storms and predict the weather.

So the English sailors, by the behavior of the cat on the ship, judged the change in weather at sea:

If a cat meows on board the ship, this portends a difficult journey.

If the cat plays on board the ship, this portends the wind in the back and rain in the face.

If the cat sits with its back to the fire, then there will be a storm soon.

If the cat washes its face above the ears, heavy rains will soon begin.

Fishing

Cats are taken fishing to ensure safety and a good catch.

Fishermen especially prefer the tricolor, because they are able to anticipate the approach of a storm.

Going out to sea for fishing to see a drowned cat is a bad sign: it is better for a fisherman to return home, as English sailors believe.

There is a belief, widespread in England, that if a boy pours water on a cat, he will not live to adulthood.

On the road

If a cat of any color slips in front of a person on the road, this is very Bad sign, especially if she ran from right to left.
In the old days, when riding horses, they didn’t take a cat with them, because, as they believed, “a horse dries out from a cat.”

In England, it is still believed that "hearing a cat's cries, setting off on a journey, is not good."

To the guests

The cat washes - it washes guests (invites).

If her paws are cold at this time, the guest is either unexpected or unkind; if warm - friends or relatives will come.

When a cat bathes, she is usually told: "Black behind the ear, black behind the ear." According to legend, the cat will hear and wash behind the ear.

“Soaped” or not “lathered” the cat of the guests, on this occasion they say: “The cat did not have time to wash itself, but the guests ran over” or “The cat wasted water: it washed for a long time, but did not wash the guests.”
This belief is common to many countries of the East, including China and Japan. There, a cat that scratches its ear with its paw also promises the imminent arrival of distinguished guests.

For guests to visit the house

There is a belief: if a person who is very pleasant came to visit and you want him to visit your house often, take a tuft of fluff from the tail of your cat or cat and quietly put it on the guest’s shoulder when he leaves, then he will certainly return to your home, and more than once.

For renewal, profit

If a cat stretches for a person, it promises a renewal or a benefit.

In Japan, merchants believe this: if a cat runs its left paw over its ear, then visitors will definitely come to the store or a good deal will be made.

New comb

With a new comb, you first need to comb the cat, then the teeth will not break for a long time.

To poverty

In China, a cat is considered the keeper of wealth, however, "if a strange cat appears in the family, then this is considered an omen of impending poverty."

When the cat sneezes

When a cat sneezes, he needs to say: "Be healthy! Hello!", Then the teeth will not hurt.

In England, it is believed that "a cat sneezes - to rain, and if it sneezes three times, then someone in the house will catch a cold."

Sailors claim that as if "sneezing or bullying hind legs above the head, while brushing and licking its tail, the cat causes rain."

According to English belief, "if a cat sneezes next to the bride in the morning on the eve of the wedding, her marriage will be successful."

Kissing the cat

A cat can be kissed on the fur, not on the face.

May cats

In England, they say that May cats do not catch rats or mice, but bring snakes and fireflies into the house.
May cats have never been sympathetic to the British, because it was believed that "they bring bad luck and suck the breath out of children."

About kittens

You can’t call, caressing, kittens mice: their mother will bite them.

Often, children were forbidden to play with kittens, as it was believed that "they can take away the memory of children and make them hypocritical."

About the survivability of a cat

People say that a cat is so tenacious that only the ninth death can kill her.

Kotu to die

According to English belief, "letting a cat die in the house is calling trouble."
To sickness and death
People have long noticed that a cat is able to feel the approach of illness and death living in the house. This is evidenced by the unusual and somewhat surprising behavior of the cat:

If a cat begins to sniff the air exhaled by a person near the very nose, this means the onset of the disease.

If the patient wants to know whether he will live or die, then he needs to take a cat to his bed: if the cat lies, he will recover, if not, he will die.

When the cat lies near the patient, she takes away the disease from him.

If a cat often and for a long time sleeps at the head of someone's bed, then it will certainly "lie down" the owner of this bed and he will die.

If a cat is lying on the table, then this is not good - it "makes" someone from the family, that is, someone from the family will die.

If a cat continuously meows, a fire crackles, sparks fly, a person will fall.

Take away death

There is a very common belief that "the victim new death the one among the living who will be the first to look in the mirror after the death that happened in the house will become. To prevent this, you should first bring the cat to the mirror.

In England, "it is considered a very bad omen for a cat to jump over a coffin." Misfortune can be avoided only by killing this cat.

Why did the cat leave the house?

The cat is a magical animal

As a rule, cats leave home for two reasons. Firstly, too bad energy can make them do it. If the house is constantly swearing, fighting and drinking, then the pet’s body may simply not be able to cope with so much negative energy and, as a result, it will leave the house, leaving you without protection.

In addition, the cause of such an act may be the impact from the outside, for example, damage or the evil eye. In this case, the cat will take everything upon itself and leave the house.

Most often, animals behave this way if someone who sleeps in this place is in danger of something bad.

A cat in a cemetery, on a grave: a sign

In the old days, it was believed that it was absolutely impossible to let a cat into a cemetery. That is why if a person died in the house, then she was locked in some room until his body was interred.

If a cat caresses you and rubs against your legs, then this indicates that positive energy emanates from you, which makes it behave in this way. Moreover, your pet does not feel that something threatens you in the near future, so he tries to do everything so that you have good mood. If he rolls on the floor and purrs loudly at the same time, then expect a noisy and cheerful company to visit.

The cat fell out of the window: a sign

And it is cats that help him get rid of these problems.

Offend a cat, beat: a sign

Remember, even if your pet did something that you don't like, you should not beat him anyway. By such actions, you will not only not solve the problem, but, on the contrary, set your fluffy talisman against yourself.

And this means that all the time while he is angry with you, your home will not be protected from the negativity of the outside world. And as a result, you may begin to have troubles that will gradually complicate your life.

The cat broke the mirror: a sign

We used to think that a broken mirror always brings misfortune. But if a cat did it, it's not like that at all. As a rule, the animal does this if it understands that it is from him that the negative comes.

In this case, animals can serve as an oracle, giving affirmative or negative answers with their movements.
In this regard, the cat was considered a special prophetic animal, capable of predicting the future. The behavior of the cat was closely observed and certain primates were used to judge upcoming events.
According to popular beliefs, the cat feels all sorts of changes - both for good and for bad. It is said that by observing the behavior of a cat, one can predict the weather, the arrival of guests, impending illness or misfortune. It is probably not for nothing that cats have always been associated with the supernatural, and cat eyes have been called "windows to another world." The Russian people have a lot of different signs associated with this beloved beast, which are largely intertwined with the signs of other peoples.

For a change in the weather:

* The cat is fast asleep or belly up - to warmth and heat.
* Sleeps with a muzzle under the belly - to bad weather or cold.
* Curled up in a ball - to frost.
* He sits in the stove - to the cold in the yard.
* Dissolves the tail - to the blizzard. Licks tail - to a blizzard.
* Licks tail, hides head - to bad weather and rain.
* Licks a paw, washes - to a bucket (sun).
* Licks a paw and smoothes the hair on the head - the weather will be fine.
* Licks the skin - to bad weather.
* Rear paw raises - to the bucket.
* Scratches behind the ear - to rain or snow.
* Scrapes the wall with its paws - to the bad wind.
* The floor is scratching - mind you, blizzard, wind.
* Sharpens claws on the leg of the table - the weather will change.
* The cat sneezes - to the rain.

Many old sailors still believe that cats on a ship bring good luck and are able to foretell storms and predict the weather. So the English sailors, by the behavior of the cat on the ship, judged the change in weather at sea:

* If a cat meows on board the ship, it portends a difficult journey.
* If the cat plays on board the ship, it portends wind in the back and rain in the face.
* If the cat sits with its back to the fire, then there will be a storm soon.
* If the cat washes the muzzle above the ears, heavy rains will soon begin.

Fishing

* Cats are taken on fishing trips to ensure safety and a good catch.
* Fishermen especially prefer the tricolor, because they are able to anticipate the approach of a storm.
* Going out to sea for fishing to see a drowned cat is a bad sign: it is better for a fisherman to return home, as English sailors think.

Pour water on the cat
* There is a belief, widespread in England, that if a boy pours water on a cat, he will not live to adulthood.

On the road

* If a cat of any color slips in front of a person on the road, this is a very bad omen, especially if it ran from right to left.
* In the old days, when riding horses, they didn’t take a cat with them, because, as they believed, “a horse dries out from a cat.”
* In England, it is still believed that "hearing a cat's cries, setting off on a journey, is not good."

To the guests
* The cat washes - it washes guests (invites).
* If her paws are cold at this time, the guest is either unexpected or unkind; if warm - friends or relatives will come.
* When a cat bathes, they usually say to her: "Black behind the ear, black behind the ear." According to legend, the cat will hear and wash behind the ear.
* "Soaped" or not "lathered" the cat of the guests, on this occasion they say: "The cat did not have time to wash itself, but the guests came" or "The cat is a washer: it washed for a long time, but did not wash the guests."
This belief is common to many countries of the East, including China and Japan. There, a cat that scratches its ear with its paw also promises the imminent arrival of distinguished guests.

For guests to visit the house
* There is a belief: if a person who is very pleasant came to visit and you want him to visit your house often, take a tuft of fluff from the tail of your cat or cat and quietly put it on the guest’s shoulder when he leaves, then he will certainly return to your house, and more than once.

For renewal, profit
* If a cat reaches out to a person, it promises a renewal or a benefit.
* In Japan, merchants believe this: if a cat runs its left paw over the ear, then visitors will definitely come to the shop or a good deal will be made.

New comb
* With a new comb, you first need to comb the cat, then the teeth will not break for a long time.

To poverty
* In China, a cat is considered the keeper of wealth, however, "if a strange cat appears in the family, then this is considered an omen of impending poverty."

When the cat sneezes
* When a cat sneezes, he needs to say: "Be healthy! Hello!", Then the teeth will not hurt.
* In England, it is believed that "a cat sneezes - to rain, and if it sneezes three times, then someone in the house will catch a cold."
* Sailors claim that "a cat that sneezes or raises its hind legs above its head while brushing and licking its tail causes rain."
* According to English belief, "if a cat sneezes next to the bride in the morning on the eve of the wedding, her marriage will be successful."

Kissing the cat
* A cat can be kissed on the fur, not on the face.

May cats
* In England, they say that May cats do not catch rats or mice, but bring snakes and fireflies into the house. May cats have never been sympathetic to the British, because it was believed that "they bring bad luck and suck the breath out of children."

About kittens
* It is impossible to call, caressing, kittens mice: their mother will bite them.
* Often, children were forbidden to play with kittens, as it was believed that "they can take away the memory of children and make them hypocritical."

About the survivability of a cat
* People say that a cat is so tenacious that only the ninth death can kill her.

Kotu to die
* According to English belief, "letting a cat die in the house is calling trouble."

To sickness and death
People have long noticed that a cat is able to feel the approach of illness and death living in the house. This is evidenced by the unusual and somewhat surprising behavior of the cat:

* If a cat begins to smell the air exhaled by a person near the very nose, this means the onset of the disease.
* If the patient wants to know whether he will survive or die, then he needs to take a cat to his bed: if the cat lies, he will recover, if not, he will die.
* When the cat lies near the patient, she takes away the disease from him.
* If a cat often and for a long time sleeps at the head of someone's bed, then it will certainly "lie down" the owner of this bed and he will die.
* If the cat is lying on the table, then this is not good - she "makes" someone from the family, that is, someone from the family will die.
* If a cat continuously meows, fire crackles, sparks fly - a person will fall.

Take away death
* There is a very widespread belief that "the victim of a new death will be the one from the living who is the first to look in the mirror after the death that happened in the house." To prevent this, you should first bring the cat to the mirror.
* In England, "it is considered a very bad omen if a cat jumps over a coffin." Misfortune can be avoided only by killing this cat.

Why do cats dream
Even the ancient Egyptians used dreams to interpret the will of the gods and predict the future. There were special books for this. Here is an example from an ancient text about a cat: "If a person sees a big cat in a dream, it means that there will be a big harvest."
Numerous "Dream Interpretations" that have survived to this day interpret the cat for the most part as a harbinger of trouble, betrayal and lies:

* A dreaming cat means bad friends or betrayal by relatives, as well as failure, unless they could drive the cat away.
