Ornithomancy is the practice of observing the flight of birds andbird calls(viaAmino).
The way birds fly also holds meaning for those who believe inbird-specific omens.
Flying high and fast or flying directly upwards means major success is fast approaching for you.

As such, they are associated with the divine, resilience, rebirth, and new beginnings.
They are also associated with leadership, honesty, and wisely-wielded power.
Native American cultures also covet eagles as positive and important signs.

Holding an eagle feather while taking part in prayer was sometimes done to represent this connection.
