Every time I heard about these words; GREEK MYTHOLOGY, I always got a goosebumps. Because I remember how great those deities are. Greeks do believed about them because of the supernatural power they have. They taught that this gods and goddesses were the reason why the things around them happened. And they presided over every aspect of human life in ancient time.

In this belief, there are 12 great gods/goddesses, whom Greeks considered as the Olympians. They lived in Mount Olympus and somehow related with the god of gods, Zeus. They were the principal deities of the Greek pantheon. Specifically, the twelve Olympians are Zeus, Hera, Demeter, Athena, Hestia, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Aphrodite, Hephaestus, and Hermes. Sometimes, Hades was excludes because he resided permanently in the underworld to judge the souls of the dead.

Hera came from the Greek word Hera, literally "protectress," related to heros "hero," originally "defender, protector." She is the queen of the heavens and goddess of marriage, women, childbirth, heirs, kings, and empires. In Roman mythology, the goddess Hera is known as Juno. She is the wife of Zeus and daughter of Cronus and Rhea. She was usually depicted as a regal woman in the prime of her life, wearing a diadem and veil and holding a lotus-tipped staff.

Although Hera was one of the fairest goddesses in Mount Olympus, Zeus was giving Hera plenty of reason to be suspicious and jealous; Hera therefore used to stay in high places in order to keep an eye on her husband's doings. Hera was rarely nice to the many children Zeus had by other mothers. There were times she would also interfering, causing harm to Zeus' mistresses, since Zeus himself was invincible.
