Cassandra is a person who predicts the future, especially about disasters and the bad things that are to happen. But that's not all. Even though each of the prophesies are true, no one will believe them
This word too is derived from Greek mythology and Cassandra was the daughter of Priam, the King of Troy. Apollo, the Greek god fell in love with Cassandra and promised her the gift of prophecy. But Cassandra cheated him, once she received the gift. Enraged at this, Apollo cursed that no one will believe her prophecies.
Cassandra foresaw the Trojan Horse (a plot by the Greeks to enter the city of Troy), the doom of Troy and even her own death.
