FORTUNA (the Roman Goddess of Destiny) . . . . .
As one peels away the layers of the universe, Fortuna can be seen in the heavens looking down on earth as she determines the destiny of each of earth's mortals. It has always been a woman's bent to determine the destiny of her loved ones if not, by extension, all of mankind.
"Our destiny . . . Is with infinitude . . . With hope it is, hope that can never die; Effort, and expectation, and desire, And something evermore about to be."
The Prelude, bk. iv
