占い (uranai) is the Japanese term for fortune-telling or divination. It encompasses various methods used to predict the future or gain insight into a person's life. Common practices include タロットカード (tarot cards), 星占い (horoscopes), and 手相 (palmistry). These techniques often rely on interpreting symbols, celestial positions, or physical features. In Japan, 占い is popular in both traditional and modern contexts. Many people consult fortune-tellers for guidance on personal matters, such as relationships and career choices. While some view it as entertainment, others take it seriously, believing that it can provide valuable insights into their lives.
