An antonym for the word omen would be a word that conveys the opposite meaning. An omen typically refers to a sign or warning that something, especially something momentous or calamitous, is likely to happen. Its antonym could be viewed as 'promise' or 'assurance', which suggest certainty and positiveness as opposed to an ominous prediction of the future. However, since these words may not perfectly align as direct antonyms in every context, an often considered antonym is the word auspice, which specifically refers to a sign or indication of a favorable outcome. A more colloquial antonym might be good sign or good omen, reflecting a positive forecast.
