What does a bouquet of lilies mean?
It depends on how you're asking it. I've read in a book once that when someone gives you lilies they represent death. If they're given to you by a past rival or current one then it's obviously not a good sign. If they're given to you by your own mother then obviously there isn't anything to fear. However, unless for some reason ur own mother is out to get you then that's something you should worry about.
What is the significance of rosemary?
Rosemary's Baby is a novel by Ira Levin and also a movie starring Mia Farrow. It is about a young couple who move into a new apartment in New York City. The husband (Guy) is a struggling actor. When Rosemary mysteriously becomes pregnant, she begins to suspect that her husband and her neighbors (the Castavets) are involved with witchcraft, and the blessing of her baby turns out to be less of a blessing after all... I highly recommend you read the book and/or see the movie.
What does it mean when a Red Bird keeps pecking at your window?
The legend says, if there's a bird hitting your window, it's a sign of death. Do you believe in these silly superstitions? well listen to this.
One day, my sister and I were casually just sitting at our computer desk and playing games on the computer.. and suddenly a "red bird" hit the window in our room and fell dramatically, I thought it died.. so I went outside to check, and the bird was no where in sight. My sister and I weren't concerned, because birds hit windows all the time. 5 minutes later the SAME bird hit the exact window. It got a little bit creepy. I thought maybe this time it died. So I went again, and checked. Once again, no where in sight. Anyway, this bird kept hitting the window repeatedly the same window. And strange enough, it only hit the window when someone was in that room. It kept hitting the window for months and months. Finally I was really concerned, because it would hit the window so hard there was blood all over it! My dad could care less when he saw the bird keep hitting the window, nothing really bothered him. So finally I did some research on the Internet and found that if a red bird hits your window it's a sign of death or a spiritual presence is trying to get inside your home. I told my dad very cautiously, and warned him about this legend and he replied with "Don't believe in that crap". But I was extremely scared. But then, one day my dad was in the computer room sitting at the desk, and the bird hit the window again, to him it was nothing new. So he just walked out of the room casually and went downstairs to the basement, and he was standing by the window downstairs and the exact bird, hit the window. So it literally followed him downstairs from outside, when my father was inside.. My dad was actually scared..very scared. Now we were all VERY concerned. Well, the cardinal kept hitting the window in my fathers home. And he just died this year after the weird red bird superstition which according to my father "don't believe in that crap" when it actually seems true. R.i.p
Now, superstitions may seem like silly jokes, but you never really know.
Till this day, I believe this is true.

Is Finding dead birds in your backyard a bad omen?
I consider seeing a dead bird, or crossing paths with a dead bird as a bad omen for sure.
I've had a terrible last couple months, and I've also seen more dead birds this summer than I've ever seen in my whole life.
I was working on a movie set when I saw the first one... a week later I lost my job. Then my apartment flooded in the floods of 08 here in the Midwest and I was forced to move, then my fiancee went to the hospital and stayed for a week due to a serious head injury.
I'm working right now, and I just went out for a cigarette... and bam, dead bird, right on the sidewalk. Maybe I'm paranoid, maybe I'm superstitious, maybe I just have really bad luck, but I strongly believe that dead birds are a bad omen.

Meaning of three white owls flying in circles over your head?
This dream feels very much like a scene out of the Harry Potter stories, in which owls - particularly Harry's white owl Hedwig - bring messages to the young wizard. I suspect the dreamer is hoping to receive messages... perhaps guidance? .... from distant or perhaps supernatural sources. In Christian tradition, the number 3 represents the Trinity, and the color white is purity or holiness. Does the dreamer hope that answers from God will provide supernatural guidance in a particularly difficult situation? Or the dreamer may be confused as to one's own calling and purpose in life, and is hoping for Divine direction.
What is the omen about if a bird flies into a closed window and dies?
Very rare, i have two birds myself (overall 4 in my life) and they rarely fly into windows or mirrors maybe once when i first got them .

Is it a sign of good luck if a wild bird lands on your head?
The best-known avian omen is the albatross in the poem, "The Rhime of the Ancient Mariner" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge", The albatross is an enormous ocean-flying bird that can fly for miles and miles without landing and is considered a favorable omen among seafarers. In the poem, the ancient mariner kills the albatross that has been following the ship and it is beset with woe....
Clarification: The above mentioned belief is for a specific bird (the albatross) and it's being seen as a good omen when it "follows" ships. There is, to my knowledge, no omen connected with an unspecified wild bird actually landing on you. The good luck is in that you were lucky enough to be out in nature, and either still enough or patient enough for one of nature's creatures to land on you, otherwise, a bird landing on you is not an omen of any kind. SINCE wild birds do not generally land on humans, it is an attempt to draw your attention to the bird, which is trying to get you to think about it. Have seen this when spiritual people pass by. the "helper" birds will fly towards them. Often you will have an ancestral connection to this bird, or there is a spiritual message that is trying to reach you.
