This dissertation deals with the incidence of the word destiny Schicksal, in german through the Works of Sigmund Freud. It broaches the conceptual history of fate, especially its tendency to be incorporated into the mystical-religious discourse and, consequently, its marginality in science. In psychoanalysis itself, it is possible to identify that the notion of destiny is still quite controversial and little worked. For example, this research highlights that the word destiny is not included in any of the several dictionaries of psychoanalysis. Furthermore, its impact on the freudian text is virtually uninterrupted. By this contrast between presence and absence of the destiny, namely, presence in freudian texts and absence of the lexicon of psychoanalysis, we returned to Freuds work seeking the various meanings of the concept. The association between destiny and trope, highlighted by Jacques Lacan represents a good way to make the many uses of Freuds notion of destiny less complex and obscure. Based on this association, this research reached two pairs of concepts that Freud used to establish his understanding of the notion of destiny: Daimon-Tyche and Ananké-Logos. The first one refers to the joint action of constitution and chance, which shows that the destination is associated with a singularity in drive satisfaction. The second set, consisting of Ananké and Logos (need and reason), is a form Freud finds to go beyond parental conception of destination. For Freud, world events are governed by Ananké and Logos and not by a parent entity. What we can notice is that destiny is a concept that psychoanalysis can not disregard, nor theoretical level, much less clinically. Destiny is directly associated with the original conceptual-objects of psychoanalysis, such as dreams, jokes and slips. The risk of forgetting such an important dimension as destiny is the same as forgetting the own origins of psychoanalysis.
