Why Cat Crossing Path is Inauspicious: We have been hearing this from the elders of our house since childhood that if a cat crosses the path then it is inauspicious. Elders are advised to wait for a while if a cat crosses your path. In Shakun Shastra, a cat crossing your path is considered a very old and prevalent bad omen. This is not just a superstition, but some practical reasons are also given behind it.
In astrology and divination, the cat is said to be related to the planet Rahu. Cat is considered to be the vehicle of planet Rahu or a creature related to it. In astrology, Rahu is considered a sinful planet. Rahu is the planet responsible for accidents, obstacles and negative energy, hence it is believed that if a cat crosses the path, the person’s work may get hampered due to the negative effects of Rahu.
According to Shakun Shastra…
According to Shakun Shastra, crossing the path of a cat, especially a black cat, is generally inauspicious or a sign of some upcoming crisis. It is believed that if a cat crosses a person’s path while going out for work, the chances of getting failure in work increases greatly. According to some beliefs, if a cat crosses the path from left to right, it is more inauspicious.
Not only the cat crossing the road, but the sounds of cats fighting among themselves and crying are also considered bad omen in shakhun shastra. This is considered a sign of discord and financial loss at home. Sneezing when a cat comes near is also considered a big bad omen.
Do this if a cat crosses your path
If a cat crosses the path, wait there for a minute or two. Let another person or vehicle pass. When this happens the defect is eliminated. If there is water nearby, sprinkle some on the ground and then proceed further. Take the name of your favorite deity or read a line from Hanuman Chalisa. This removes all the negative thoughts from the mind.
