Anakin Skywalker looking angry in Revenge of the Sith to the left and the Mortis Gods to the right
The Chosen One prophecy and the Mortis Gods are two of the biggest mysteries in Star Wars, but this theory perfectly connects Anakin Skywalker and the Mortis Gods, revealing how they are intertwined. The Mortis Gods were introduced in Star Wars: The Clone Wars as powerful Force beings. In fact, they may very well embody the Force itself, as the Son represents the dark side of the Force, the Daughter represents the light side, and the Father represents balance.
While this is at least illuminating in the sense that the actual prophecy has been revealed, the meaning of "ultimate balance in the Force" isn't certain. It seems the Jedi also have their own definition—destroying the Sith—but that hasn't been confirmed as the true definition anywhere in Star Wars canon.
Why Did The Father Want To Recruit Anakin? The Father Wanted Anakin To Be His Replacement All the more interesting, during the Mortis Gods arc in The Clone Wars, the Father tried to recruit Anakin to take his place. The Daughter, the Son, and the Father all ended up dying by the end of this arc, raising questions about what this meant for the Force if this trio truly was keeping the Force in balance.
On the other hand, if the Mortis Gods did represent balance in the Force and embody the Force itself, the Father was right that Anakin should have taken his place. This also would have prevented Anakin from falling to the dark side, becoming Darth Vader, and carrying out Order 66. Anakin still brought balance in the end, at least based on the Jedi's understanding of the prophecy, but becoming the replacement for the Father would have prevented plenty of suffering.
