The pigeon is considered an urban bird that has lived side by side with humans for centuries. That is why many folk signs and superstitions are associated with pigeons. It has long been believed that these birds are able to warn a person about danger and even predict future events.
Folk omen: a pigeon flew through the window
You should not immediately panic if a pigeon suddenly flew through the window. Traditionally, it is believed that this is a harbinger of the imminent death of one of the household, but everything is not as bad as it seems at first glance. Logically, there are so many pigeons living in cities that it is not surprising that someday they can make a mistake and accidentally fly through the window. It's another matter if a sick pigeon flew through the window and died right in the apartment.
For example, I used to live in a house where a neighbor all the time sprinkled bread crumbs on the windowsill, hung feeders near his window and fed the birds in every possible way. Of course, sparrows and pigeons constantly crowded on our windowsill, sometimes knocking on the window and repeatedly flew through the open window. It is clear that this did not mean anything, all the household members were alive and well, and whoever died, so only from old age. There were no terrible tragedies in the house, so you should not look for signs where they simply do not exist.
Something extraordinary has to happen for the pigeon flying through the window to really mean something.
Folk omen: a pigeon sat on a windowsill
Again, this omen has no basis at all. It is popularly believed that something terrible awaits you in front of you if a pigeon has sat down on your windowsill. It is believed that bad news can be bought off by pouring grain or bread crumbs on the pigeon. In general, feeding city birds is useful in any case.
Dove beats out the window
Also one of the bad omens. It is popularly believed that bad news awaits you that will disrupt your plans.
However, I know of cases when this omen, on the contrary, marked very good events. A week after the pigeon knocked on the window, an acquaintance found out that she was pregnant. So this sign cannot be interpreted unambiguously. If a pigeon beats out the window, expect news, but not necessarily bad news.
The same pigeon flies to you all the time
If a pigeon has settled nearby, it constantly flies to your windowsill, then be calm - nothing bad will happen to you. The pigeon living next door protects you from trouble and attracts good luck to the house.
It is believed that positive energy emanates from you, which attracts birds.
You got pigeon droppings
This is traditionally a good omen, promising quick profits and success in financial affairs. The dove gave you such a peculiar sign: get ready to receive money, calmly wash your dirty clothes and you will be happy.
See a dead dove
This is a sure sign of motorists. It is believed that if you hit a bird, then you need to be as careful as possible - this is a sign of an imminent accident.
Signs about white doves
Seeing a white dove is a good sign. Great luck awaits you. White doves are very rare, as a rule, these birds are bred only in special dovecotes. For unmarried girls, a white dove portends a quick meeting with a good man, whom she will soon marry.
