Fates

The Fates often touch the sense of a destiny spun, measured, and cut beyond your hand — and the danger of meddling with what's woven. The dream may ask where you feel your course already determined, whether you're tempted to interpose yourself in others' destinies, and how you hold the tension between accepting fate and contesting it.

Miller 1901

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
