Written in the Stars: How Kamala Harris’s Fate Was Sealed in the Cosmos

In the months following the 2024 election, as analysts pore over data and political commentators craft their postmortems, a curious, almost poetic symmetry has emerged—a pattern written not in campaign strategies or polling numbers, but in the stars themselves.

For those inclined toward celestial determinism, or even a literary approach to fate, Kamala Harris’s loss was not merely a political defeat, nor the inevitable consequence of a fractured electorate, but a moment long prophesied in the constellations. A strange linguistic and astronomical coincidence ties her name to Andromeda—the "Chained Woman" of Greek mythology—whose celestial representation in the night sky suggests a narrative of confinement, struggle, and ultimately, fate determined by forces beyond one’s control.
