Oracle

An Oracle is a person or entity regarded as a source of wise counsel or prophetic predictions, often conveying messages from a deity or higher power. In ancient cultures, oracles were typically associated with sacred sites and rituals, where individuals would consult them for guidance on important decisions, future events, or moral dilemmas.

The term can also refer to the medium or mechanism through which prophecies are delivered, such as an oracle bone used in ancient Chinese divination, or the Pythia, the priestess at the Oracle of Delphi in ancient Greece known for her cryptic responses.

In modern contexts, the term “Oracle” can also refer to tools and systems that provide expert insights or analysis, especially in fields such as technology and business. Additionally, “Oracle” is the name of a well-known tech company that specializes in database software and technology, cloud solutions, and enterprise software products.
