  1. If the swallow flies high it is not a good sign. If the robin is on the top of the tree in the morning it is a sign that the day will be good. If there is a rainbow in the evening it is a good sign. If the beams go up from the sun when setting it is a good sign. If there is no mist on the mountains in the morning it is a good sign. If the frog is yellow it is a good sign. A starry sky in the Harvest is a sign that the next day will be good. When the crane flies to the mountain it is a good sign.
