  6. I would try, according to my primitive understanding of Stoicism, to interpret these two concepts in this way below.

    Fate (=God=Nature=Universe) determines/predesignates individual's many major and final states of which each can be affected by the individual's freedom to choose her/his preferred steps forming potentially different paths, within the individual's and environmental/ surrounding limitations, to attain her/his next upcoming state which is part of fate.
