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.[1] This page lists prophecies and omens from The New Prophecy arc.

- Interpreter: Stoneteller[6]

Blood Will Spill Blood[]
- Prophecy: "Before there is peace, blood will spill blood, and the lake will run red."[12]
- Sign: Dreams of a lake stained with blood[13]

- Reference: Starlight
Omens[]
Midnight[]
Fire and Tiger[]
- Omen: A vision of a giant tiger leaping from flames[17]
- Interpreter: Cinderpelt[18]
- Meaning: Brambleclaw (Tigerstar's son) and Squirrelpaw (Firestar's daughter) will find a new home for the Clans, and unite them for the journey.[19] Cinderpelt first misinterprets it, thinking it means that the two cats present a danger to the Clan, or to each other.[20]
- Reference: Midnight
Moth's Wing[]
- Omen: A moth's wing found outside of the medicine cat's den[21]
- Interpreter: Mudfur[21]
- Meaning: Mothwing, the former rogue, is fit to become a medicine cat apprentice.[21] It is later revealed that Hawkfrost left the moth's wing outside of Mudfur's den so he could use Mothwing's medicine cat status to help him gain power. This makes Mothwing stop believing in StarClan, but she is still a good medicine cat.[22]
- Reference: Midnight
Dawn[]
A Dying Warrior[]
- Omen: "When return, stand on Great Rock when Silverpelt shines above. A dying warrior the way will show"[23]
- Interpreter: Midnight[23]
- Sign: A shooting star leaving a faint silvery trail over the mountains[24]
- Meaning: After Midnight tells Brambleclaw and his friends about the forest's destruction, she explains that they must stand on a "great rock" and a dying warrior will show them the way to their new home.[23] When the Clan cats return to their home, Brambleclaw and his friends bring their Clan leaders to the Great Rock at Fourtrees, but a sign does not come.[25] When the Clans are prepared to leave their homes, Brambleclaw, Tawnypelt, Stormfur, Crowpaw, and Squirrelpaw witness a falling star leave a fiery trail over the mountains, signaling their path to the lake territories.[24]
Twilight[]
Death and Danger[]
- Omen: Sharp claws and teeth are glimpsed along with a voice whispering that death and danger are coming.[26]
- Interpreters: Littlecloud, Cinderpelt, and Barkface[27]
- Meaning: Badgers are going to attack the Clans, starting with ThunderClan, and many cats are going to die.[28]
- Reference: Twilight
Sunset[]
Leafpool witnessing starry pawprints on the lake
Starry Pawprints[]
- Omen: A vision of two sets of pawprints merging into a single path[29]

- Meaning: Brambleclaw and Squirrelflight's destiny cannot be ceased by any cat.[30]
- Reference: Sunset
Three Stars[]
- Omen: A vision seen by Leafpool of three stars shining brighter than the others in the sky[31]
- Interpreters: Bluestar, Spottedleaf, and Lionheart[31]
- Meaning: The three stars represent three cats Leafpool has yet to meet (most likely her coming kits) who will shape her destiny when she does meet them.[32] This omen was also shown in Leafpool's Wish.
- Reference: Sunset
Brambles with Claws[]
- Omen: A vision of the ThunderClan camp surrounded by high walls of bramble, with claws instead of thorns[33]
- Interpreter: Leafpool[34]
- Meaning: The brambles surrounding the ThunderClan camp represent Brambleclaw, and that he will keep his Clan safe, meaning he is the rightful deputy for ThunderClan.[35]
- Reference: Sunset
Two Stones[]
- Omen: Two pebbles that look different from the other pebbles are carried away by the stream[36]
- Interpreter: Mothwing[36]
- Meaning: Two things in RiverClan do not fit, and need to be "swept away" like the dream Mothwing had.[36] This omen is false, as it is later revealed that Hawkfrost forced Mothwing to make up that dream so RiverClan could get rid of Stormfur and Brook, because he is afraid that Stormfur will be chosen as deputy instead of him, sweeping away the power Hawkfrost hopes to gain in his Clan.[37]
- Reference: Sunset
Moth's Wing[]
- Omen: A moth's wing getting torn off[38]
- Interpreter: Leafpool[38]
- Meaning: The omen reveals to Leafpool that Hawkfrost had torn off a moth's wing and put it outside the medicine cat's den so that his sister, Mothwing, could be the new medicine cat.[39]
