Foreshadowing is a warning of what is to come in the future. The tragedy of Oedipus the king oftentimes, if not entirely, relies on himself. Teiresias the blind prophet says to him: "You yourself are the very man you are looking for." The prophet is telling Oedipus that he is responsible for the plague, of course he refuses to listen to that horrible future. When Teiresias asks Oedipus if he knows where he comes from, he also foreshadows that Oedipus himself is responsible for slaying his own father. And a third one can be his marriage with his own mother. Oedipus is warned of everything, however, ironically his eyes do not help him see the bad times for him, his family and his kingdom.
