- I-Fates zizithixo zasentsomini ezamisela isiphelo soothixo nabantu.
- Bamelelwe njengoodade abathathu: iClotho (i-spinner), iLachesis (umlinganiselo) kunye ne-Atropos (umsiki).
- Indima yabo kwiintsomi ibethelela ukungaphepheki kwelishwa nokungabi nakuzinceda koothixo xa bejamelene nalo.
- Iinguqulelo ezifanayo zala manani zikhona kwiinkcubeko ezahlukeneyo, njengeNordic Norns kunye neBaltic Laimas.
Kwiintsomi zamandulo, ikamva lomntu ngamnye lalimiselwa ngamandla aphakamileyo, amaqumrhu ahlanganisa ubomi babantu abafayo ngemisonto engabonakaliyo. Ezi zixhobo zaziwa kwiintsomi zamaGrike njenge Moiras kunye neentsomi zamaRoma njenge Parcae, efanekisela umntwiso wekamva elingenakuphepheka elilawula indalo iphela.
Ukususela kumaxesha amandulo, la manani aye abangela umdla ngendima yawo kubomi nasekufeni koothixo nabantu. Impembelelo yayo yanwenwa ukususela ekuzalweni ukuya kutsho kumzuzu wokugqibela, ukusonta, ukulinganisa nokusika umsonto wobukho. Kodwa yayingoobani le mibutho ngokwenene yaye yayinayiphi intsingiselo kwiinkolelo nakwiintsomi zamandulo?
Imvelaphi yeFates kunye neMoirai
Las Moiras AmaGrike kunye Parcae AmaRoma yayingamaqela amabhinqa awayemele ikamva. Imvelaphi yayo iyahluka ngokweenguqulelo zeentsomi ezahlukeneyo. Kweminye imithombo, bajongwa njengeentombi zothixokazi wokuqala wobusuku, nix, ezinxulumanisa nesiphithiphithi nobumnyama. Ezinye iinguqulelo zibonisa ukuba babeziintombi Zeus y Themis, iTitaness eyayiquka ubulungisa nokulungelelana.
Igama layo ngesiGrike, Moirai, lithetha 'amacandelo', liqaqambisa indima yalo ekwabeleni umntu ngamnye kwindawo ethile. Kwisithethe samaRoma, i Parcae Bavela njengokuhlengahlengiswa kwale ntsomi, befumana isazisi esifanayo, kodwa ngamagama abo kunye neentsingiselo.
Amanqaku amathathu: iClotho, iLachesis kunye neAtropos
Nganye ye Parcae babenomsebenzi othile kwaye bekunye balawula yonke imiba yesiphelo somntu nesithixo:
- Clotho: Ispinner. Wayephethe umsebenzi wokusonta intambo yobomi kwivili elijikelezayo, emisela ukuzalwa komntu ngamnye omtsha.
- ILachesis: Lowo ulinganisa. Umsebenzi wabo yayikukumisela ubude bomsonto, ukumisela ukuba ubomi bomntu ngamnye buya kuhlala ixesha elingakanani.
- Atropos: Ukungaguquguquki. Nguye owayesebenzisa isikere sakhe esoyikekayo ukusika intambo yobomi xa ixesha awayelinikiweyo lifikelela esiphelweni.
Le mifanekiso yayinamandla kangangokuba kwanoothixo babengenakuyiguqula loo nto babeyimisele. Izenzo zakhe zazigqalwa njengengenakurhoxiswa, nto leyo yomeleza ingcamango yekamva elingenakuphepheka.
I-Fates kwiintsomi kunye noncwadi
Kumabali amaninzi entsomi zakudala, i Parcae Babonakala njengabagwebi abangaguqukiyo bekamva. Kwi Iliad, kukhankanywa indlela ababuphila ngayo ubomi Hector ukuhambelana namanye amagama, owayengenakusibaleka isiphelo sakhe awayesichaze kwangaphambili. Kwi I-Odisea, Homer Wababiza 'ngabajikelezi', egxininisa indima yabo ebomini nasekufeni kwamaqhawe.
Intsomi ye Parcae ibe nefuthe elikhulu kuncwadi nakubugcisa. Shakespeare, kwi Macbeth, waphefumlelwa ngabo ukuba benze amagqwirha amathathu aprofeta ikamva lomlinganiswa oyintloko. Kwinkcubeko eyaziwayo, umzobo wakhe umelwe kwiifilimu, iinoveli kunye nemidlalo yevidiyo, eqinisekisa ukuphelelwa kwexesha kwesimboli sakhe.
Indima yelishwa kwiinkcubeko ezahlukeneyo
Nangona intsomi ye Parcae y Moiras Ubukhulu becala yeyentsomi yamaGrike namaRoma, ezinye iinkcubeko ezininzi zineziko ezifanayo ezilawula ikamva:
- AbakwaNornsKwiintsomi zaseNorse, oodade abathathu (iUrd, Verdandi kunye neSkuld) badlala indima efanayo, bejikeleza isiphelo soothixo namadoda.
- IiLaimasELatvia naseLithuania, kwakukho oothixokazi abathathu ababemisela ikamva lomntu ngamnye ekuzalweni kwakhe.
- Izithixokazi zokusonta: Iinkcubeko ezininzi zamandulo zazinxulumanisa isenzo sokwaluka kunye nesiphelo, zicinga ukuba sisikweko sokuhamba kwexesha nobomi.
Le pateni ibonisa indlela uluntu oluye lwabelana ngayo ngenkxalabo efanayo malunga nokungathinteleki kwelishwa ngalo lonke ixesha.
Kuyo yonke imbali, Parcae ibe ngomnye weyona mifanekiso inamandla kwintsomi. Ukumelwa kwabo njengabajikelezi bexesha elizayo komeleza ingcamango yokuba ubomi bulukwe ngemisonto engabonakaliyo ekungekho bani unokuyilawula. Ubukho bayo kwingcinga edibeneyo buhlala bungoku, busikhumbuze ngobuthathaka bobukho kunye nokungenakwenzeka kokubalekela i-destiny esele iphawulwe.
