A single omen or favorable sign, especially one interpreted from bird behavior; patronage or protection.
From Latin 'auspicium,' from 'auspex.' While usually seen in plural, the singular form exists and refers to one protective influence or omen.
Though we almost always say 'under the auspices' (plural), the singular 'auspice' technically exists but sounds so strange that using it makes people do double-takes—it's grammatically correct but practically abandoned.
