This article contains some information which is pure psuedoscientific opinion and conjecture. Also some issues with conforming to an encyclopedic npov. Will cleanup later. Entropic 19:05, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)
64.12.116.66, please stop replacing the Diana bit. The article could probably use some examples of "real omens", but "x happened on the day of a solar eclipse, and then y happened the day after a lunar eclipse" doesn't qualify. If I get around to it, I'll come back-- but for now, shorter is better. (Sorry- I confess I didn't know how to sign when I first posted this. But now: QuixoticKate 04:06, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC))
Everyone -- This Diana eclipse thing is just an example of what an omen or portent consists of -- it's just an example, nothing more, so you should leave it. And all of the eclipse dates and data check out, research it yourself here ------------> http://www.hermit.org/Eclipse/when_search.shtml (this loads slowly)
I suppose this isn't worth disputing at this point in this articles life-- I understand that these eclipses happened when the article says they did, I just think (as written), it's a poor example--but since I don't currently have any others, and since there's more than one person vouching for the Diana/eclipse thing, leaving it is ok with me.

[edit] Black cat
18`12`2006 I have lived in Britain all mygh life, and ime familiar with the notion 't a black catt crossing one's path is bad luck on the ground 't witches keep black cats. 30odd years back, ie heard 't s0me people maintain the oppozite, but ive never met one. So nu the example should be ditched.
