A cricket in the house is a sure sign of good luck.

Meeting a cat or dog or red-haired woman early in the morning portends bad luck for the day.

Friday belongs to the faerie; it is a day in which the sidhe hold great power.

To dream of a woman's kiss portends deceit; to dream of a man's kiss portends friendship.

To break a geas is to seal one's fate.

A cukoo calling on the right means good luck all day.

Ravens are unlucky birds, being creatures of the war goddess the Morrigan.

Itching, hot ears indicate someone is gossiping about you.

A rooster crowing at the door portends visitors coming.

A crowing hen is very unlucky.

Killing a red breasted robin brings a life time of bad luck.

Horses in dreams are good luck.

Meeting a magpie or a cat brings bad luck to a journey.

One magpie prattling at the door is a sign of bad luck, even death, but two augur prosperty.

Priests in dreams portend bad luck; the devil portends good luck.

Distrubing swallows brings ill-favor from nature. Leaving them be brings good favor.

Never say in the Manx language cockroach, cat, or mouse while at sea.

It is not always lucky to find hidden treasure.
