A "Seeress" is a female figure believed to possess the ability to foresee the future or gain insight into hidden knowledge. Often associated with various cultures and mythologies, seeresses are typically depicted as wise women or oracles who provide guidance and prophecies. They may use different methods, such as divination, dreams, or visions, to interpret signs and communicate their insights. In many traditions, seeresses hold a significant role in spiritual and community life. They are often consulted during important decisions or events, such as battles or harvests. Famous examples include the Norse seeress Völva and the Greek oracle Pythia, both of whom were revered for their prophetic abilities.
