ΜοιραιThe Moirai were the three goddesses of fate who personified the inescapable destiny of man. They assigned to every person his or her fate or share in the scheme of things.

As goddesses of fate they must necessarily have known the future, which at times they revealed, and were therefore prophetic deities -- source link
