Seeing a titmouse on the window, the townspeople are often worried, remembering the signs. A cute bird most often flies to people for food, without any malicious intent. The various superstitions associated with the titmouse did not appear by chance. The tiny bird looks very menacing.
Nature tried to decorate the feathered one. Moreover, males are colored brighter, and behave more aggressively. A yellow breast with a black stripe against the background of a dark hollow, in which tits like to settle, looks like the eye of a huge beast – this is how the baby protects the nest, scares away enemies. And people are alarmed by the black 'cap', which is subconsciously associated with widowhood.
Popular rumor called the titmouse the “bird of happiness”, and beliefs broadcast about its ability to bring good luck on its wings, or predict changes in life.
So we get a set of signs: some people consider the titmouse to be the keeper of the hearth, helping to establish good relations in the family, while others think that a bird with a characteristic color portends trouble. This is worth understanding.
Good omens
If a titmouse has sat on your window, pay attention to its behavior. A bird in a good mood is considered the bearer of good news – material profit awaits you in the form of:
- awards;
- large fees for work;
- big win;
- finds of a decent amount.
You can not count on receiving an inheritance – this news is combined with sad events, and a cheerful tit portends happiness. Seeing a yellow-breasted bird on the windowsill, hurry up to buy a lottery ticket, feel free to invest in the enterprise you thought about before.
Good luck 'on an especially large scale' can be expected if 2 or 3 birdies sit on the windowsill at the same time.
A titmouse walking on the windowsill may portend the arrival of distant relatives.
If one of your loved ones is on a long journey, a tit that looks to you can be a romantic message. The person remembers you warmly and wants you to think about him too without a phone call or SMS.
A very good omen is to feed the tits. Such charity attracts good luck and happiness. Some people specially prepare treats for titmouses: seeds and lard; hanging feeders and bird houses.
Bad sign
The titmouse itself, which flies up to the window, is not a source of negativity. Bad interpretation of omens associated with a window.
The fact is that in the old days, coffins were taken out of the house through the window, and then they kept it wide open so that the soul of the deceased person left the house. Therefore, the window is perceived as a path for the dead.
Birds flying high are considered to be connected between heaven and earth.
A tit on the window can be the soul of your recently deceased relative who wants to communicate with you, say that he loves and remembers you. It is possible that the spirit of a loved one wants to warn their descendants, to support them in difficult times. In this case, the interpretation of the signs: you can make a mistake with the investment or become a victim of a thief.
When a pessimist thinks about what the titmouse flew to and sat on the windowsill, he concludes that the bird invites someone to go to another world, that is, portends death or illness.
But in the cold season, tits often sit on the window. What then, to expect a massive pestilence? Not at all! Birds strive for warmth. And the omen remains bad, because the accumulation of tits near human habitation at the end of autumn portends a severe cold snap.
Cautions
A very bad omen is considered to be a dead titmouse on the windowsill or in another place directly next to the dwelling. This means that someone wants to harm you with witchcraft, damage you, attract illness or death.
This fact cannot be ignored. Need to prevent trouble:
- Remove the corpse with a feather. Just don't touch it with your bare hands.
- Wash the window. Sprinkle it with holy water.
- Go to church or just read a prayer.
If you are annoyed by a jumping tit near the window, and you are worried about property, do not drive the bird away, do not harm it – this is a great sin. Better step aside, lure the feathered treat. So it will save you from bird droppings, and you will earn a few points in your karma, and the titmouse will become a good messenger for you.
