prophetic signs
Harbingers of fate
Prophetic signs are events, phenomena, or omens believed to fulfill or foreshadow prophecy—typically religious predictions about the end times or divine intervention.
Earthquakes, wars, astronomical events, and social upheaval are commonly interpreted as prophetic signs by those watching for them: Some saw the eclipse as a prophetic sign.
The phrase implies pattern-recognition in current events, reading them against ancient texts.
