It's a phrase that refers to the Greek myth about Pandora receiving a box from Hermes that she wasn't allowed to open, but she was so curious that she did open it. When she opened it all the bad things that are in the world today, like sickness, hunger, jealousy, anger or greed, flew out of the box. But hope was hidden in the box, and she was able to keep it inside. So when someone says that Pandora's box has been opened, or the like, they mean that bad things are going to happen.
It means you've revealed a secret or done something you shouldn't do and in doing so "great evils" or unforeseen negative consequences are released.
To open Pandora's Box refers to a decision or action that unwittingly unleashes unforeseen and uncontrollable consequences or problems. It originates from Greek mythology, where Pandora opens a box releasing all the evils into the world.
Pandora's fall from grace in Greek mythology was due to her curiosity and disobedience. She was warned not to open a forbidden box but succumbed to her curiosity, releasing all the evils into the world.
To open a Pandora's box means to inadvertently unleash a situation or set of problems that are difficult to control or contain, similar to the myth in which Pandora's curiosity led her to open a box releasing all the world's evils.
In the myth of Pandora's box, she only opened the box once. This act released all the evils into the world, leaving only hope inside.
In Greek mythology, Pandora's Box contained all the troubles and evils that afflict humanity. While Pandora was instructed not to open the box, she eventually gave in and released these malevolent forces into the world. The only thing that remained in the box was hope.
The story of Pandora from Greek mythology is typically seen as bringing evils into the world by opening a forbidden jar. However, some interpretations argue that her actions also released hope, showing that even in times of darkness, there can still be a glimmer of positivity. Ultimately, the impact of Pandora on humanity can be seen as a blend of both good and evil.
