This paper inquiries the relationship between Freedom and Future. Initially, it examines the notion of the future as conceived within the Classical worldview, particularly through the idea of destiny, and differentiates it from the modern notion of the future. The contemporary linear conception of the future is predicated on two essential components of freedom: novelty and possibility -an idea originally introduced by Christianity. However, Modernity and Postmodernity have radicalized these concepts, resulting in a sharp dichotomy between the future and the past. The final section proposes a synthetic approach to reconciling the concepts of future and freedom.
