Because their whole world revolved around their god[esses] and superstitions evolved over time when something occurred and then another event after that. The second was related to the first. They thought that the omens were sent by their deities and if they did something after that, that the omen warned against, they thought that they would be punished or something bad would happen.
Generally yes. The Romans usually "took the omens" before beginning any major project and a long journey would be considered a major project in those times. They especially consulted omens or soothsayers before sea travel, as the Romans in general, were "landlubbers" and not natural sailors as were, say the Greeks or Phoenicians.Generally yes.

A theocracy is a government ruled by divine guidance or by a person considered to be divine. The Romans never considered their living rulers to be divine, but they certainly asked for divine guidance in their undertakings, both major and minor. The counsuls would look for omens before bringing up any important issues before the senate. The omens would always be taken before a battle. Omen readings and sacrifices would always accompany the dedication of a building, and so on. Thanksgiving was always given to some god or another after a success. On the basis of this evidence, one would have to say, yes, the Romans had a theocratic government.

Good omens were signs of positive outcomes for future actions. The Romans practiced augury, which was a religious cult of reading the omens of the gods.

Black rats, that means bad luck. Black cats, ditto. Bad Omens could also be, like, some people consider shooting stars bad omens, some people consider blondes bad omens, (not a lot of people, though), but it's a form of opinion, some people don't even believe in omens.
