nagitive --

If you read the book you'll know that the omens are more positive than negative. (or "nagitive"). The omens help to guide Santiago on his journey to achieve his personal legend. Sometimes the omens show impending attacks. Sometimes they just appear to help him make a decision. In the grand scheme of things, you could more accurately depict all omens as positive because they are helping to point you in the right direction. The direction of your personal legend.

Yes. Mathematically, they have opposite signs. So they are opposing vectors. In terms of physics, they represent the effects of forces acting in opposite directions.

When a negative and a positive are together they repel or attract?

If you place a + charged side and a - charged side of a magnet together - they will attract. The theory behind this is that sides of polar opposites (meaning north and south) will form an attraction with their protons and electrons to form a bond. Polar similarities contain a balance and will therefore repel the forces of the other magnet to maintain their equilibrium.
