Prophecies and omens/Super Editions

Prophecies and omens are dreams and signs given by StarClan to leaders, medicine cats, and sometimes to other Clan members as well, to foretell the future and warn them about incoming events. This page lists prophecies and omens from Super Editions.

We will split the sky

 * Sign: Message from StarClan to Moth Flight
 * Interpreter: Moth Flight

There will be a warrior whose loyalty to WindClan will waver

 * Prophecy: "There will be a warrior whose loyalty to WindClan will waver. A cat who will have to seek far beyond the confines of your territory to discover where his heart truly lies."

Like fire, you will blaze through the forest

 * Prophecy: "Like fire, you will blaze through the forest . . . but beware— even the most powerful of flames can be destroyed by water."
 * Sign: Burning branch
 * Interpreter: Goosefeather
 * Meaning: Bluestar would become leader and bring peace to ThunderClan. Her power is shown greatly, just like fire blazing throughout a forest, like the prophecy foretells it. However, she dies on her last life by drowning in the gorge. It was also a warning that her relationship with Oakheart (beware) would have ruined her chances of becoming leader, and taking Rusty/Firepaw (the most powerful of flames) into ThunderClan, and only avoided this fate by giving up her kits. *

 * Sign: Message from Goosefeather to Bluefur

That kit should have never survived

 * Prophecy: "I'm sorry, StarClan. That cat should have not survived. This was never meant to happen."
 * Sign: Message from Goosefeather to StarClan
 * Interpreter: Goosefeather and Bluefur
 * Meaning: Tigerkit should have died along with his siblings. He was never meant to survive, as he would do terrible things to the forest later on. This is proved to be true, as Tigerstar brought war to the forest with BloodClan, becoming too ambitious, and almost wiping out the Clans altogether.

Kin of your kin

 * Sign: Message from Skywatcher

 * Meaning: This prophecy tells of the arrival of three cats more powerful than any before them, and that they are related to Firestar. They are later revealed to be Jayfeather and Lionblaze, Firestar's grandsons, and Dovewing, Firestar's great-grand-niece. However, this prophecy happens before the birth of the Three, so it takes a while for Firestar to figure out who the Three are.
