The Oracle (The Matrix) facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

The Oracle is a very special computer program from The Matrix movies. She looks like a kind old lady who bakes cookies. Her job is to help people make important choices. She was played by two actresses, Gloria Foster and Mary Alice.

Who is The Oracle?

The Oracle is not a human, but a powerful computer program. She lives inside the Matrix, which is a fake world created by machines. Unlike most programs, she seems to have feelings and a deep understanding of people. She often speaks in riddles or gives advice that helps people understand their own path.

Her Special Role

The Oracle's main purpose is to guide humans and other programs. She doesn't tell people what to do directly. Instead, she helps them see the choices they have and understand the results of those choices. She believes that people must make their own decisions to truly grow. She often knows what will happen in the future, but she lets people discover it for themselves.

Helping Neo

One of her most important tasks was with Neo. Neo was a young computer hacker who felt something was wrong with the world. The Oracle gave Neo a very important choice: to become "The One." The One is a special person who can change the Matrix and help humanity. Her guidance helped Neo understand his true power and destiny.
