The titmouse symbolizes goodness and happiness. This bird belongs to living creatures that cause only positive emotions. There are many popular signs explaining the appearance of tits next to a person.
It is considered a great success if a cute bird sits on an open palm – you can make a wish. If the titmouse on the palm also sings, then the conceived will certainly come true.
Popular rumor claims that a tit in the hands is better than a crane in the sky. This controversial statement has a foundation. The titmouse is a symbol of the Virgo zodiac sign, which is distinguished by perseverance, pragmatism and hard work.
In summer, when there is a lot of food, titmouses are busy taking care of their offspring, nursing up to 10 chicks at a time. There are also 2 broods per season. All this time, yellow-breasted birds are busy hunting for insects and their larvae, so the expression appeared: 'the tit is the garden protector'.
Signs with tits
According to superstition, if a bird beats against a window, or knocks on it with its beak, this is a harbinger of trouble or happiness. But the little titmouse does not evoke bad associations. The omen can be interpreted in different ways depending on the behavior of the bird:
- She sat down peacefully on the windowsill, and looked through the window into the room – expect good news, joyful changes.
- Behaves restlessly, squeaks anxiously, hits the glass – get ready for material losses, or the cat scared the bird.
- A cheerful titmouse jumps in one direction or the other – heralds the arrival of distant relatives.
- The bird whistles cheerfully, sitting on the windowsill – the situation is in your favor, everything conceived will soon come true by itself.
- Most of the time, the tit has its back to the glass – don't worry, there is no news for you, good or bad.
Sinichkin's whistle has another meaning. It can be used to predict the weather in cold weather:
- The titmouse sings – a thaw and a sunny day are expected.
- A yellow-breasted bird squeaks – portends frost at night.
- There are many titmouses near the house – soon it will be cold.
If there is a feeder next to the window, there are no omens – the birdies are waiting for food, giving signs, reminding themselves of themselves in every possible way: knocking on the windowsill, flapping their wings.
Feeding the titmouses is fortunate.
Connoisseurs will accept about tits with joy they hang out feeders, prepare in advance delicacies for forest birds, which, with the onset of cold weather, move closer to human habitation.
Why does a titmouse appear in the house
A titmouse flew onto the balcony – there are several explanations for this event:
- The feathered guest heralds the replenishment of the family.
- Good news soon.
- You keep food supplies on the balcony, the bird has chosen a 'dining room' for itself – her visit means nothing.
A titmouse flying into a room evokes diametrically opposite emotions in superstitious people. Some rejoice at the 'rolling' happiness, others begin to worry about the fate and health of loved ones.
The negative interpretation of the omen is explained by the general fear of old-timers in front of wild birds in the house. By tradition, birds associate with the souls of dead people. But if the spirit of a deceased person wants to visit relatives, see how they live without him, there is nothing wrong with that, there will be no harm from such a visit.
The window of our ancestors could symbolize the 'gateway to the other world', through the window opening they carried the coffin out of the house – hence the fears: you never know what the 'come from another world' brought into the house. But the titmouse is a cute bird, it cannot be a harbinger of great trouble.
There are interpretations of signs about a tit in the house, which are based on the circumstances of visiting a bird:
- The titmouse flew through the window, stayed in the room, quickly flew out – you can wait for guests or a short noisy holiday is approaching. The sign is especially relevant on the eve of the New Year.
- The bird flew into the room, and behaves calmly, crouched on the furniture, looks around – pleasant events of a large scale are coming, replenishment of the family, material profit is expected.
- The titmouse in the room is nervous, rushes from side to side, emits a piercing squeak, beats against the walls and ceiling – a bad sign. But it is not necessary to pluck your excitement on the 'baby'. She is not the cause of possible troubles, but only a messenger.
What to do? Open the window wide, open the curtains, leave the room so as not to frighten the bird. She herself will find a way out – this is the best option: she will fly away, with what she arrived.
What awaits you in the near future
Do not try to catch a bird to plant it in a cage! If you cannot withstand the chaotic fluttering of the bird, carefully cover it with a cloth and let it out the window. Is there a superstitious thrill in your soul? A bad omen associated with birds can be neutralized or weakened. Throw food (crumbs, grains, seeds) after the uninvited guest and say the words: 'I flew in for food, not for trouble.'
