おみくじ（おみくじ、omikuji）
- fortune slip

The word おみくじおみくじ refers to a fortune slip, a written prediction of one's fortune. It's a common practice in Japan, particularly at shrines and temples, where people draw おみくじおみくじ to learn about their luck in various aspects of life, such as overall fortune, health, love, work, and travel. The slips typically contain predictions ranging from very fortunate to very unfortunate, along with advice or guidance.

You use おみくじおみくじ when talking about the fortune slip itself or the act of drawing it. You might ask someone, おみくじおみくじを引いた？ (Did you draw a fortune slip?) or tell someone about your おみくじおみくじ results, such as 大吉が出た (I got a great fortune.) or 凶だった (It was a bad fortune). It’s also common to say おみくじおみくじを引く (to draw a fortune slip) or おみくじおみくじを見る (to read a fortune slip).

おみくじおみくじ is usually written in hiragana. It is rarely written in kanji, but the kanji representation would be お[御]み[神]くじ[籤]. There are no variations in okurigana.
