- If there are dark rays about the sun it is the sign of coming rain.
If a weasel crosses the road before you when you are going to a fair it is a sign of good luck.
If you see one magpie it is for sorrow and two for joy.
If you find a button it is a sign that you will get something good.
If a man build a shed the west side of his house he will die before the year is out.
