4. pl. [L. Fata, pl. of fatum.] (Myth.) The three goddesses,
Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos, sometimes called the
Destinies, or Parc[ae]who were supposed to determine
the course of human life. They are represented, one as
holding the distaff, a second as spinning, and the third
as cutting off the thread.
[1913 Webster]
Note: Among all nations it has been common to speak of fate
or destiny as a power superior to gods and men --
swaying all things irresistibly. This may be called the
fate of poets and mythologists. Philosophical fate is
the sum of the laws of the universe, the product of
eternal intelligence and the blind properties of
matter. Theological fate represents Deity as above the
laws of nature, and ordaining all things according to
his will -- the expression of that will being the law.
--Krauth-Fleming.
