Paelemona, the Fateweaver, is typically depicted as a woman at a loom with three faces: the maiden, the mother and the crone. As the Goddess of Fate, she knows all that is to come but has already forgotten all that has come to pass. She is also the patron of weavers and encourages them not only to create the finest wares they are capable of, but to predict what buyers will need and clients truly desire.
As Scalla, the Spider-Queen, she is the Duchess of Mystery for Divination and is propitiated by augurs and seers who seek to learn more of the future. In the Danic tradition, her three aspects are considered separate as Urd, Skuld and Verdandi, the Norns and goddesses of destiny. They are also law-givers in this latter tradition and Paelemona’s typical association with weavers is subdued.
