A miracle is an event or phenomenon that surprises and captivates with its unusualness, transcending ordinary human experience. It can be associated with religious beliefs (such as divine intervention) as well as fantastical or unexplained phenomena in nature or human life. Miracles are often perceived as symbols of hope, inspiration, or joy, and they serve as sources of reflection on the nature of life and the world.

In different cultures and religions, a miracle may have its unique characteristics and meanings.
