Goddesses with their own ways to get fat (5)
I believe the answer is:
fates
'goddesses' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'ways to get fat' is the wordplay.
'ways' becomes 'es' (east and south - two directions).
'to get' says to put letters next to each other.
'es' after 'fat' is 'FATES'.
'with their own' is the link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for fates that I've seen before include "Goddesses governing human lives" , "Three Greek goddesses who presided over people's destinies" , "classical goddesses" , "Mythological goddesses controlling destinies" , "Goddesses guiding human lives" .)
