Color of the day: White
Incense of the day: Ginger In many cultures, birds served as messengers between gods and humanity and later as bearers of truth. In ancient Rome, the augur divined the future from the activity of birds or the kinds of birds sighted. Bird lore abounds. It is said that hearing a cuckoo's song today signals a prosperous year ahead. If a blackbird builds a nest on your roof, good luck is yours. Make a wish when you see the first robin of the season for a year of good fortune. Doves are the messengers of Venus, for whom April is dedicated, and if you hear their song, love is on the way. Sparrows are the patrons of a happy home. A flock of chirping sparrows indicates rain is imminent. If you disturb a swallow's nest, your work will be unsuccessful. Learn to observe birds as a reflection of the divine in nature. |
