16. Fortune Goddesses (Themed Episode #4)

In our 4th themed episode, we discuss an array of fortune, fate, and luck goddesses. We talk about the different ways fate and luck are viewed through different cultures, the common theme of groups of three, and a surprising amount of snakes! We discuss Lakshmi from Hindu mythology, Tyche and the Fates (Moirai) from Greek mythology, the Norns from Norse mythology, the Ora from Albanian folklore, Dolya-Nedolya and Srecha-Nesrecha from Russian folklore, and Benzaiten from Japanese mythology.
