Mythology reveals how cultures perceive fate through a variety of narratives and deities that embody different aspects of destiny. These interpretations often reflect the belief in a predetermined path influenced by divine forces, luck, or personal choices. Cultures may depict fate as an inevitable force that governs life, as seen in myths featuring figures like the Norns in Norse mythology or the Moirai in Greek tradition. By addressing the complexities of free will versus destiny, mythology both offers comfort in understanding life's unpredictability and reinforces the cultural importance of responsibility in one's actions.
