about

The title "Afflicted Planets" carries intriguing philosophical and internal connotations, suggesting a blend of astrological, existential, and metaphorical meanings. Let's explore some possible interpretations:

Astrological Significance:
In astrology, the term "afflicted planets" refers to celestial bodies that are thought to have a negative influence on an individual's life. These planets are often associated with challenges, obstacles, and difficulties. The title could imply a focus on the struggles and adversities that individuals face, possibly influenced by cosmic forces or external factors beyond their control.

Metaphorical Challenges:
The term "afflicted" can extend beyond astrology to represent a broader sense of hardship or difficulty. It might symbolize the challenges that people encounter in their lives—personal, societal, or existential. The planets could be symbolic of different aspects of life, and their affliction may reflect the struggles inherent in the human experience.

Existential Exploration:
On a more philosophical level, the title may suggest an exploration of existential themes. The planets could represent different facets of existence or aspects of the self, and their affliction could symbolize the inherent difficulties and uncertainties that individuals grapple with as they navigate life's journey.

Internal Struggles:
The title might also imply an introspective exploration, where the "afflicted planets" are internal states of being, emotions, or psychological challenges. This interpretation could delve into the complexities of human emotions, mental health, and the internal conflicts that individuals face within themselves.

Fate and Determinism:
The mention of planets may evoke ideas of destiny and cosmic influences on human lives. The title could be a contemplation on the role of fate and determinism, exploring whether individuals are guided or influenced by forces beyond their control.

Symbolism of Celestial Bodies:
Celestial bodies often carry symbolic significance in various cultures and belief systems. The title might suggest a narrative where the affliction of planets represents a broader cosmic drama or a metaphorical alignment of events that shape the course of individuals' lives.
