意思
A gut feeling or intuition that something is about to happen.
文化背景
The concept of 'Mushi' (bugs) is used in many idioms to describe emotions that feel beyond our control, like anger or dislike. The 'Three Worms' belief suggests that these spirits report your sins to the heavens while you sleep. In anime, a character's 'mushi no shirase' is often a plot device to signal that the protagonist is in trouble. Many Japanese people still take these 'hunches' seriously, often calling home if they feel a 'mushi no shirase.'
Use it for 'Bad' things
If you want to sound like a native, only use this for ominous or serious hunches. Using it for 'I have a hunch I'll get a free coffee' sounds slightly off.
