The priests who "took the omens" or interpreted the signs in ancient Rome were called augurs.
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. Bad omens signalled that the gods did not approve of the future action. There were many techniques for reading the omens of the gods and there were all sorts of signs.

The omens serve as a warning of the divine retribution that will befall the suitors for their actions.
Not certain what the question is. The signs are self-explanatory. There are no specific signs for general CPT code.
