cosmic forces

Universe's governing energies

Cosmic forces are the fundamental powers believed to govern the universe—gravity, electromagnetism, and the nuclear forces in physics, but more often invoked loosely to suggest fate, destiny, or mysterious universal energies beyond human control.

The cosmic forces aligned to bring them together.

The phrase tends toward the grandiose or mystical, appearing in spiritual contexts, science fiction, and dramatic overstatement.
