- Roda da Fortuna. ISSN: 2014-7430 (Print). The Wheel of Fortune theme originated in Greco-Roman antiquity, probably from the fusion of two goddesses: Fors and Fortuna. This combination gave rise to Fors (Fortuna), the goddess who personified chance, fate and luck. Christianized in the Middle Ages, the Wheel of Fortune represents both the Wheel of Life and the Wheel of Chance, it symbolizes the continuous changes, both positive and negative, that the medieval man was subject to.
