Originating from East Asian mythology, the 'Red String of Fate' is the belief that two people predestined to be together are bound by an invisible red thread. The red thread, tied by the 'God of Marriage' around the two people's fingers, symbolizes a fated connection that can never break, regardless of the circumstances. The red thread will bring these people together eventually, no matter how complex the paths to each other.

The belief, akin to that of soulmates, is often referenced in literature, film, and art. Intrigued? Click on to find out more.
