PSYchology

The ancient Greek myth of Cassandra tells of a soothsayer whose prophecies no one believed.

The psychological term «Cassandra complex» is used to denote the intuitive ability to foresee events, combined with the inability to change or prevent them.

In her book, Jungian analyst Lori Leighton Shapira explores the relationship between the manifestations of the «Cassandra complex» among modern women and classical patterns of hysterical behavior.
