Cow Mooing or Looking Happy — What the Texts and Tradition Say
Per Brihat Samhita, happy or thrilled cows signal growing wealth and an ox lowing at night is lucky, but a cow crying for no reason calls for care.
Cows returning in the evening with a 'bambha' call hint at a growing herd.
Cows pestered by flies or dogs are read as a sign of rain soon.
Brihat Samhita's general rule reverses omens for women; no separate rule is given for this one.
