EP 49: The Goddess of Fortune

from Garner's Greek Mythology · host Patrick Garner

But 2,500 years ago, she was believed to determine the day-to-day fortunes of every Greek.If your ship was tossed against rocks as you steered through a storm, it wasn’t your fate as much as your fortune. Tyche was at play. If you stumbled across a hidden treasure, you could thank the goddess. She alone dished out fortune, chance and luck.It’s time to become reacquainted with the divinity who determined the fortune of both gods and man!
