Clotho- The Fate Goddess in Ancient Greek Mythology

Clotho, the guardian of fate, is the daughter of Zeus and Themes. The former represents supreme power, while the latter represents absolute fairness. Therefore, Clotho was born with the divine power to control human destiny.

The poet Hesiod once said: "At the birth of every person, the goddess of fate has predetermined their blessings and misfortunes. A person's life's fate is represented by a red rope, whose winding twists and turns bring about the ups and downs of fate. Once the goddess of fate cuts this red thread, it is the time when ordinary people drive cranes to the west.". Kloto always faces forward, which may mean that "there is no turning back in life". Everyone's life is only once, and no one has the opportunity to turn back and start over.

The Fate of Clotto and Troy
As the goddess in charge of the fate of all things, Kloto is impartial and selfless, but also deeply understands the warmth and coldness of human relationships. According to legend, during the Trojan War, the undead Greek warrior Achilles was invincible and impervious to weapons and knives. He led the Greeks to invade the city of Troy, and they saw that Troy was about to be slaughtered. At this critical moment, thousands of people kneel on the ground, praying for the blessings of heaven and the favor of the goddess of fate. The towering Kloto couldn't bear it in her heart and remained indifferent to the tragic deaths of numerous innocent people. So, Kloto told the defending soldiers about Achilles' weakness, and the latter was shot in the ankle by the Trojan prince Paris, the only fatal point on his body. In the end, Achilles' death ignited the fighting spirit of the Trojan soldiers, who bravely defeated the invaders, thus avoiding the bad luck of slaughtering the city.
The fate of everyone in the world is in the hands of the goddess of fate, Kloto, and is something that one cannot control or know beforehand. No one knows what will happen in their lifetime. Therefore, whenever they encounter setbacks, setbacks, and failures, people often pray in front of the statue of Kloto, praying that the generous and compassionate goddess of fate can turn the world around and bring good luck and blessings.

Kloto holds the spindle of fate in his hand, and the red thread of each person's fate is wrapped around it. Westerners tie the spindle of fate to their bodies to seek the blessings of the goddess of fate, while also symbolizing the firm control of fate in their own hands.
Just as Easterners firmly believe in karmic retribution, Westerners also believe that human destiny is predetermined by fate, and the so-called "heaven" refers precisely to the goddess of fate, Clotto. Although everyone has their own destiny, it varies from person to person. However, most Westerners firmly believe that fate can be changed, provided that the goddess of fate is lenient. So, people always like to pray for the favor of the goddess of fate at critical moments, although it sounds a bit like "temporary Buddha's feet", people still flock to it.
