 There is more to Fate then the Loom.  Fate is a concept woven through and through into Creation as surely as justice or betrayel.  A product of Primordial design which like many things they developed can be used in ways they did not anticipate.  A Sidereal using this charm craft's a Destiny for a person(as per the background).  She must touch the person(Which requires a roll if the target is unwilling) and make an Intelligence + Craft: Fate roll.  For every two successes on her roll she can give the target a dot of Destiny.  The Destiny must be appropriate in scope to the number of dots given.  Someone with 5 Destiny from this charm can not have their destiny to be crossing the empty street.
-Wether or not the person wants to he will soon get a sense of what his Destiny is(though not necessarily that the Sidereal gave him this destiny without appropriate charms to see essence use or such).  When the target takes actions directly supporting this destiny his Target Numbers for rolls are reduced by 1 and when his actions directly go against it they are increased by 1.  He also gets all the normal bonuses for having dots of Destiny.  Creatures normally bound by Fate can buy this Destiny at 3xp a dot, going into Experience Debt if they want to keep it.  Otherwise the benfits and penalties only last as long as the Sidereal keeps the motes committed.

-The Peacock is a vain creature and depending on who you ask so is Venus.  Only the best made and most expensive goods are worthy to be made by Sidereal hands and so that is exactly what they do.  Anytime the Sidereal builds something while using this charm the item's final resource value is increased by one due to aesthetic additions she works into her product.  Objects she makes are not any more functional then any normal item they are just fancier.

 Venus is the premier fertility goddess of Heaven.  Many times in Creation's existance has she had to weave fates into the Loom to ensure a race was bountiful.  Perhaps the Vizier's can not ensure the success of entire races that span Creation but they know how to ensure the right people have the right children at the right time.  Using this charm on someone means that the next time they have sex they will become pregnant with a child, or up to 3 children as the Sidereal decides.
-A second purchase at Essence 4, House of Serenity 3 allows the Sidereal more leeway.  They can name a person that this will be successful with, possess some control over the nature of the children such as gender and looks, and if they spend 2 WP the charm counts as shaping as well and allows for stranger pairings such as the creation of beastmen.

A note though this charm has the Sickness quality that is due to how pregnancy is treated mechanics wise.  They are not somehow contagious with fertility that others can catch.

 Like all Celestial Exalted the Vizier's can produce works beyond their normal limits.  This charm is a collection of 5 charms, each one devoted to a particular Maiden.  Artifacts having to do with that Maiden's field of influence have their minimum abilities required reduced by 1.  Furthermore Sidereal Manses and Elemental manses that share the same aspect as that Maiden is affiliated with have their requirements reduced by 3.  A Sidereal can purchase this charm up to twice for each Maiden.
