Some examples include;

An eclipse foretells the death of a ruler in the country it is seen in.

They are sometimes seen as predictors of large scale trouble, such as famine or war.

Primitive cultures saw it as a sign of the end of the world.

In some cultures, people still go outside and bang on pots, and make a lot of noice to scare the bad luck away.
