The myth of Cassandra is a powerful allegory for the importance of listening to and believing women and the consequences that can come when we don't. Taylor Swift's latest album includes a song titled "Cassandra" that provides opportunity to reflect on how this ancient myth is still sadly relevant in modern life.

In this podcast episode, astrologers Alicia Cielle Heiser and Lori Kaufman review Cassandra's mythology and discuss the ways that this ancient being can show up in the birth chart.

This episode builds on material we discussed in our ⁠Asteroids 101 episode⁠ and is part of a series of asteroid stories episodes. Please also check out our Asteroid Underworld Stories episode, as well as our episodes about Philomela, Icarus, Rhea and Chariklo.
