Superstitions about the causes of death
Having pets in the house is a great joy for the family. Dogs are associated with friends, loyal and reliable companions. For such reasons, the death of a pet is a great psychological trauma for adults and children. The death of a pet at home or on the street has many interpretations.
What do superstitions depend on when a dog dies:
- what kind of death there was - quick, sudden or as a consequence of a protracted illness;
- dog's age;
- a place of death;
- accompanying events.
The death of a pet does not always carry negative predictions. It is a natural process. Its irreversibility is a fact. Acceptance of the fact determines how quickly a person will recover, and how much meaning he will put into the folk sign.
The pet has been sick for a long time
Animal illness is a long process. It is exhausting and brings moral discomfort. If we consider illness as a consequence of negative changes, then illness is the negativity accumulated in the house. It affects the well-being of children or animals because they have the weakest energy protection.
A dog’s illness is popularly called a warning - negative processes are occurring in the house. If you do not clean your home and take care of its protection, the disease will soon appear in your household.
After an illness, the dog died - expect trouble. Death after a protracted illness of a pet portends sudden losses. The owner of the house will be mired in problems, he will have to suffer from constant troubles and problems at work.
A dog's illness and death is a signal to parents. Their children will also get sick if prevention and strengthening of their bodies are not taken care of.
The death of the dog occurred at night - wait for guests with bad news. Such events cannot be avoided, according to popular belief.
Sudden death
If the dog died suddenly, while in good health, the pet took on the problems of its owner. Cats and dogs, as animal protectors of people, often take upon themselves their troubles and mortal dangers.
This sign concerns the violent death of an animal:
- the dog was hit by a car;
- the animal died for no apparent reason;
- the dog was poisoned by food or leftover food found on the street;
- death was due to injury.
A sign when a dog died suddenly promises recovery: the trouble is over, the animal has taken the blow. After such an event, rituals are performed to cleanse the home. If negative energy or damage remains, you will have to get rid of it using additional methods.
The death of a pet happened in front of the household - you will have to observe the problems. Relatives will not be able to help, and they will have to become outside observers. If a dog is hit by a car in front of a child, he will have poor health.
Sudden death occurred at night, when everyone was sleeping - trouble bypassed the house. The family is not in danger in the future. The pet must be buried with honors.
Signs if you kill someone else's dog
The killing, even unintentional, of someone else's dog is assessed extremely negatively by superstitions. The violent death of an animal is considered a mortal sin. According to the superstition, the offense is punishable based on this. Most often, dogs die under the wheels of cars, sometimes due to their own carelessness. But this does not relieve the driver of guilt.
There is a belief that then dark forces become active and begin to take revenge for the dead dog. After a very short period of time, another accident will occur, but the victim will be a person (the culprit or his relative).
Attention! A very bad sign - a dog is hit by a car in which the newlyweds are driving. Some terrible fatal circumstances are guaranteed for one of the spouses.
Place of death of the dog
An important factor influencing the meaning of the sign is the place where the pet spent its last minutes. Death happens at home, outside or in the yard. Each sign has its own unique meaning.
- If the dog died in its home, where it was loved, this does not pose a serious danger. The pet portends changes - soon the household will have to abandon the old way of life. Death in the house is not a threat if the dog has not suffered.
- A negative omen describes the death of a dog outside its home yard. Such an animal suffers and dies far from familiar places. Superstition foreshadows the illness of a relative or family member. The illness will be protracted and severe. To recover, the patient will have to look for different methods of treatment. Long and painful roads lie ahead of him.
- If the dog died in its place - in a kennel or near the threshold of the house, wait for the arrival of sudden guests. Their goals and intentions will not be clear. A dead dog warns that there is danger, but it can be averted.
The death of a pet in a private home is a warning to household members. If a pet dies in a rented apartment, trouble will come knocking on the door of the owners of the rented home.
Signs if you see a dead dog
The sight of a dead dog is endowed by popular rumor with the most gloomy predictions:
- A homeless dog dying right on the threshold of a residential building is the most terrible omen predicting the death of a family member. In a mild case, temporary discomfort is possible, but still troubles and minor squabbles are guaranteed.
- A pregnant woman whose dog died near her home will face a difficult birth. A seriously ill person, on the contrary, will recover, since a dead animal takes away the disease.
- The corpse of someone else's unfamiliar dog, found in one's own yard, predicts trouble (lack of mutual understanding, betrayal, disobedience of children, etc.).
- A mongrel that recently bit a person has died; the person who was bitten will suffer again, but for a different reason.
- A dead red dog promises a natural disaster or a catastrophe on a global scale. It is especially dangerous to find a corpse on the eve of a major holiday (New Year, Christmas, Easter, etc.).
Pet color
A separate part of the sign is the color of the dog. If an animal dies due to old age or suddenly, its owners pay attention to such details.
The black pet died - trouble passed by the house. She tried to get inside, but she couldn't. Home owners should not be afraid of the future. It does not promise negative changes.
The white pet died - serious troubles await the family ahead. The white streak is over. The death of a white pet always carries only a negative prediction.
This superstition warns: protracted quarrels will destroy the family, so disagreements should not lead to conflicts. The white pet died - there will be separation from your lover. Strong couples will suddenly separate, and lovers will become enemies.
The red pet died - expect financial difficulties. Money energy has a yellow, orange, fiery color. For this reason, the death of a brightly colored pet promises many financial difficulties. The owner of the house faces dismissal or demotion. Minor conflicts will develop into quarrels: if spouses quarrel, it will be difficult for them to save the marriage.
The gray color of the pet indicates everyday problems. If a pet died for a long time and suffered, it foreshadowed a series of problems. They will gradually seep into the house and destroy stability. The gray pet died outside the house - he tried to take the problems with him, but his mission failed. Everyday problems cannot be avoided.
Death under the wheels of a car
Experts are convinced that if a pet suddenly died, it means that it averted trouble from its owner and his family members. This applies only to those cases where the dog died a natural death - from illness or old age. If the death occurred due to the fault of a person, then the one who took the animal’s life will later pay for it himself.
The sign says that if you accidentally hit a dog, this is equivalent to a grave sin, followed by punishment.
Esotericists say: an animal is capable of taking revenge for its death: the culprit of the incident or his loved ones will begin to have health problems. Sudden death is possible, which can also be caused by a car.
To avoid a sad fate, you need to go to church, repent and light a candle for the health of all your family and friends, and also pray for your sin.
If your dog died under the wheels of a car, then this sign indicates that it helped you or your loved ones avoid a similar fate. But you should still be very careful about driving the car and the drivers on the road, so as not to become a victim of an accident.
Dream about a dead animal
A separate type of signs concerns dreams. The dog owner sees a living dog or a dead dog - both animals warn of imminent events that affect a person’s life. The death of a non-existent pet in a dream is the loss of a friend in real life. A reliable partner or colleague will show his true colors. Intrigues and betrayal will be revealed.
If a real pet dies in a dream, in real life a person will face difficulties in communicating with people. He will get a new position or move to another job, but will not be able to adapt quickly. He will face misunderstanding and even alienation from the people around him.
The death of a pet in a dream and in real life is a serious warning. The pet is trying to warn about illness or a long period of stagnation. The more a person ignores the signs of fate, the more difficult it will be to accept the essence of the problem. A real danger is approaching the house.
If a dead pet is aggressive in a dream, trouble will come from outside from strangers. A dead pet is affectionate in a dream - problems are created independently: by false attitudes or incorrect behavior.
Signs after the death of a pet
There are also folk signs about the time after an unpleasant event. The pet's funeral was not without problems - trouble will soon come knocking on the house. If there was bad weather when the dog was buried, financial difficulties will begin.
The light bulbs in the house burned out when they buried the dog - you can’t rely on people from your immediate circle. If the dog dies not on its own, but with a cat or other pet, the trouble will be protracted. The owner of the house will suffer from the actions of a group of people.
After the death of a pet, good sunny weather means all sorrows will soon go away. The person will get a chance for positive change. He has the right to take advantage of opportunities or neglect them.
After the death of the dog, pure white snow fell - there was a white stripe in front of its owner. He will begin a new life, filled with joy and pleasant experiences.
A few days after the death of the dog, a puppy was killed - a favorable omen. It promises human growth and development. The puppy will have to be left and provided with shelter and food. The sign is positive for young couples. A new addition to their home is expected soon. The puppy promises a lot of joy and children's laughter.
Why does a dog die in the house?
A pet can die for several reasons:
- By old age - the maximum age of a dog is 16-25 years, but not all dogs live that long, mostly 9-15 years.
- Due to illness. Our pets get sick, like people, with various diseases, and not all of them can be treated.
- As they say, a dog dies hard when it takes away part of the disease of its beloved owner at home.
It is recommended to bury the deceased animal away from home, if possible, or bury it deeper, packing it if it is not possible to carry it away. After a few months, you can make a new four-legged friend.
How to remove the negative meaning of a sign
The death of a pet is an unfortunate event, but it is not a reason for reckless behavior. Negative signs are neutralized by the correct actions of the dog owner.
According to popular belief, you should not bury your pet near your home. Such an act will affect the financial well-being of the family. There will be constant troubles in the house.
- Caring for a sick animal. An act such as killing a pet, even if it is in pain, will turn against a person. To kill a dog is to call the trouble upon yourself. It will be worse than any damage. If you refuse to help a dying dog, expect deception and betrayal. The best option for a dog owner is to stay close to the dying pet or go to a veterinary clinic to have it painlessly euthanized.
- Funeral of a pet. Since ancient times, danger came to the house if, after the death of a dog, its body was burned at the stake. The correct burial of a dog is to bury it under a tree or in the garden. To avoid causing trouble, you should not bury your pet at night or after sunset.
If a dog barks before dying, you should not open windows and doors in the house so as not to let trouble in. Helping your pet is the best protection against harm. You should not leave your dog without water or food until the last minute. It is necessary to say goodbye to a dead dog: it is better for household members to thank the pet for its faithful service and devotion.
