Hunting for the Northern Lights

Aurora Borealis ⭐️Signs

Aurora Borealis⭐️ Signs

The Northern Lights have always been associated with various natural or mystical signs. Of course, they range from good omens (longevity, happiness, the birth of a successful son) to harbingers of misfortune (war, crop failure), as well as references to the underworld and mystical phenomena. Different peoples and cultures have seen different symbols in the glow, from heavenly dances to games of spirits and bridges between worlds. Let’s let’s break down some.

Positive signs:
👉
Far Eastern signs: Meeting with the Northern Lights is considered a good sign, foreshadowing a long and happy future.
👉 Japanese Sign: They believe that children conceived under the glow will be successful and prosperous.
👉 Chinese Sign: Seeing the Northern Lights means that a year or all of life will be happy.

Negative signs:
👉
British sign: People in the south, where the aurora is rarely seen, may be considered a harbinger of war, famine or other disasters.
👉 Eskimo Beliefs: In their tales, the radiance could bring trouble, and his long observations could lead to madness.

Connection with the underworld and mysticism:
👉 Souls of the Dead: Many peoples, including the Sami and Eskimos, believed that radiance was the souls of the dead who played, danced, or were reminded of themselves.
👉 The bridge between the worlds: the Finns saw in the glow of the fiery river that separates the world of the living from the world of the gods and the dead.
👉 “Merichenie”: The Pomors believed that observing the glow could cause “merichenie” — convulsive movements, inexplicable cravings to move and loss of memory about their behavior.

The interpretation of the Northern Lights into signs is closely related to local myths and cultural peculiarities, and can be both a good omen and a sign of impending misfortunes.
