Cassandra (goddess of prophecy)

Cassandra is a figure from Greek mythology, renowned for her gift of prophecy. She was a daughter of Priam, the king of Troy, and was blessed with the ability to foresee the future. However, her curse was that no one would believe her predictions. This meant that, despite warning the Trojans about imminent dangers, such as the fall of Troy, her insights were disregarded. Cassandra's story highlights themes of fate, foreknowledge, and the tragic irony of having the truth go unrecognized, making her a poignant symbol in literature and discussions about the complexities of communication and belief.
