Omen<\/strong> It is a concept that comes from the Latin word augurium<\/em>. The term refers to a divinatory ritual<\/strong> that different ancient peoples developed from the interpretation of<\/strong> signs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Diviner\"<\/p>\n

In ancient times there were soothsayers who performed omens.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The omens in Antiquity<\/h2>\n

In pre-Christian times, omens were believed to be valid. By then it was understood that they existed signs<\/strong> that could be interpreted to anticipate what would happen in the future. At present, omens are framed in the field of superstition<\/strong> because they are beliefs alien to reason and are not linked to the faith of a religion.<\/p>\n

The augur<\/strong> was who, in the Ancient Rome<\/strong>, was dedicated to making omens officially. The augurs were priests<\/strong> who were entrusted to examine signs such as the behavior of birds to guess the future<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The official augurs<\/strong> they held a lifetime office and could only be consulted by magistrates in particular places. There were augurs who interpreted the manifestations of the will of the gods<\/strong> through ritual formulas, while other augurs were dedicated to deciphering the signals of the divine will when it was expressed spontaneously.<\/p>\n

Beyond the official augurs, there were also private augurs<\/strong>. In this case, the soothsayers performed the omens outside the system<\/strong> settled down.<\/p>\n

\"Raven\"<\/p>\n

Crows were considered \"ominous\" birds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Negative forecasts<\/h2>\n

The expression \"bird of ill omen\"<\/em> is used in the colloquial language<\/strong> to refer to the individual who usually indicates that harmful or harmful events will occur<\/strong>. The origin of the phrase can be associated with the work of the augurs.<\/p>\n

These diviners, to make their predictions, studied how the wings moved, in what way they trilled or where the birds flew. Many times these signals were taken as an anticipation of negative events: therefore, there were birds<\/strong> that they were from \"Bad omen\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Sometimes the superstition<\/strong> it was combined with biological characteristics. The crows<\/strong>, because they feed on carrion and because of their black feathers, they were designated as animals of \"Bad omen\"<\/em> and their presence was believed to anticipate misfortune.<\/p>\n
