a bird in the house!

[flowersofthelady]

I came down this morning to find a pigeon in my sitting room!!!! it has come down the chimny.

im sure i heard somewhere that this is a bad owmen or a sign someone will die!!
what do you think? im a bit worried.

also this week iv had to chase a rat out! im in despair, totally exhausted with life and in tears all the time. these animals are not helping!!

all i wanted was 1 quiet day in my pj's and all hell breaks loose.

off to clean pigeon poo off my babys toys now hope you have some advice!!

i dont consider the visitation of any animal to be a bad omen for the most part. Some exceptions to that would be vultures/buzards or any bird of prey in a group of 3, 5, or 7 to be circling over an area where their is no prey or for them to be perched outside your home and folllow you around or remain in the same group in the same placed for 3 days or better. Also this same combination would hold true to me if it were Ravens or Crows.

A pidgeon to me is not a bad omen but a positive one. Look at the nature of pidgeons they congregate in areas of plenty. A place where their needs are easily met. To me this could be a sign of prosperity and excess to come in the near future.

IT could also just mean a pidgeon fell down the fireplace.

I have this raven sitting out my window, do ravens mean death?

I wasnt actualy freaking out that the pigeon meant we were going to die lol, there are just 2 things i heard as a child that stuck with me. A bird coming in your house, and seeing the ghost of an animal are supposed to be very bad. not even sure where i read that though.

I just had a really bad week last week (un-related to pigeons LOL) and waking up to that was really the last straw.

I do like the idea of excess to come! could seriously do with that after this current time

also i heard that birds can be the spirits of passed loved ones re-visiting you. but i really dont think the loved one we recently lost would return as a pigeon, she wouldnt stand for that! HAHA!

Kaimira: No I doubt that it means death... if its hanging around try talking to it and see what it has to tell you

lol sym thats ur awnser for everything try talking to it. remind me to never go to the zoo with you haha xD id be sittting there like "o_o.. -twiddles thumbs-" and youd be like "oh hello mister panda is that bamboo stick good, mind if i try some ? shareing is careing ^.^"
ON TOPIC-
i doubt it means much. lol its like finding something that u didnt think was there. like a 50 euro note, its not bad luck, u certainly wudnt throw money you found away would u id keep the bird as a pretty pet =D

We once got a bird in my grandmother's house. She freaked saying we had to get it out the same way it came in or somene would die. She was distraught till we found the window that it came in and shooed it out. I imagine it's so rare some meaning has been attached to it.

to my knowledge the bird in the house meaning death is only if its sparrow

and to ILLBE YOUR A SMART ASS If people took the time to listen to nature we'd understand things better.

It depends on your culture. I was brought up with a Celtic Romany culture where nature omens are taken very seriously. Birds are omens of death including a pigeon. HOWEVER, that death is much like getting the Death card in Tarot it means the end of a situation rather than an actual death. It can be a good or a bad thing. You said you've had a bad week, well the pigeon could be a sign that the bad will end soon.

p.s it could just be that there are alot of crectures near your house. Are you near a water source? Do you have a pond in the garden? Both Rats and pigeons stay near water sources.
