There's nothing more romantic to me than Hera and Zeus in Their celestial aspects. She's the Goddess of the Sky and Stars. He's the God of the Sky and Storms. I bet They just dance around in the aether making pretty colors sometimes.

Working with Hera is fucking unreal. The power. The intensity. The fire. The strength. The brilliance. The fury. The divinity.

She is Queen.

She is Mother.

With her I feel like I can do anything.

Hera is in the Hades II early access!

MOTHER!!!!!!!!

Also I think Hera’s gigantic hair is supposed to look like peacock feathers at the back. Could it mean she fights like Lord Shen? Using her feathers to cut ppl and shield herself? I really want her to be a boss fight it would be so epic.

youtube

Its interesting that she doesn’t have armor or look battle ready like her family (Hestia doesn’t wear armor but that could be bc she’s usually holding fort on Olympus rather than be in the battlefield) could it be bc she’s not as worried as the rest of them? And that she’s on Chronos’s side? That’s how it was in mythology.

🦚 Hera appreciation 🦚

Hera is in the bright sky and white clouds after a huge storm.

Hera is in the cool breeze on a warm afternoon

Hera is in the way a mother soothes her child when they get hurt

Hera is in the air that carries the wings of birds

Hera is in the indignation that comes from being betrayed

Hera is in the ones that stand against injustice

Hera is our mother, our beautiful mother. The way she cares for us is unmatched. Blessed is her name, blessed is the great Alexandros, the Queen of Heaven, the bringer of clouds.

Within the Heraion of Samos 👑 🦚 🪷

One of the oldest temples dedicated to the goddess of marriage and the queen of Mount Olympus, Hera (with the first one built somewhere within 800 BCE upon an early pre-existing late Myceanean altar/ worship site, and the later 2nd bigger one were built somewhere between 700-600 BCE.); since according to the local tradition, the goddess was born under a chaste tree on the island near the river banks of Imbrassos; which the holy sanctuary would later be built upon. Coupled with a few facts that Hera was one of the earliest goddesses being worshipped and has temples dedicated to by the Greeks, even before Zeus; and her equally impressive religious sanctuary site in Argos which was mentioned in Homer’s Illiad. (Where the Greeks viewed her as a multifunctional goddesses-not only the Panhellenic wife of Zeus and 'queen' of the gods, protectress of childbirth, growing up, and marriage; but also a patron of the wellbeing of the family, in relation with the family and the state, too.)

The Ionian architectural style of the second temple reconstruction, designed by Rhoikos and Theodoros of Samos-along with the xoanon icon of veiled Hera that was depicted in the later Roman coins-have been speculated to be the influence of various later Ionic temples within coastal towns of Asia Minor that were built during Hellenistic times. (Such as the temple of Apollo in Didyma and the famed temple of Artemis of Ephesus in Turkey-one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.)

From all of the archeological essays that I read about the architectural traces/remnants, the statues, and the votive offerings that were excavated within the temple area, it seemed that the goddess do enjoy a large influx of pilgrims and visitors, too- as there cultural syncretism between the Greeks and Greek Cypriots, Phoenicians, Babylonians, Assyrians, Urartians, and Egyptians. Despite the Heraion were later destroyed by an earthquake/or toppled by weak foundations in the muddy marshy ground in 550 BCE and the worship activity almost completely ceased within the sanctuary during classical times, as Samos were under the rules of Athens; interest in Hera began again in Hellenistic-Roman times as numerous smaller temples were erected around the area. Unfortunately, the third temple reconstruction by Polykrates was never finished and was later used as a quarry and a Christian church in Byzantine times.

I don’t have a very good relationship with my own mother; but happy mother’s day to some other important women/goddesses in my life.

Persephone is like a mother to me (i call her mama) (its mostly to differentiate, i have 3 moms and 3 dads)

Aphrodite is newer in my life but shes been a big help and I’ve learned a lot from her

Hecate is one of my patrons and ive learned alot under her guidance

Hera is someone who that looks after one of my friends and has also supported me and ive learned alot from.

Blessed Theogamia!

“With that the son of Cronus caught his wife in his arms and under them now the holy earth burst with fresh green grass, crocus and hyacinth, clover soaked with dew, so thick and soft it lifted their bodies off the hard, packed ground… Folded deep in that bed they lay and round them wrapped a marvelous cloud of gold, and glistening showers of dew rained down around them both. And so, deep in peace, the Father slept on Gargaron peak, conquered by Sleep and strong assaults of Love, his wife locked in his arms.”

—Iliad, 14.413-421, translated by Robert Fagles

Rundown of the altar: my statues of Zeus and Hera on a golden plinth, standing in front of my "wedding portrait" (done by the INCREDIBLE @coloricioso). The incense is lotus oil. To the right are flowers in the flame colors associated with brides (and priestesses of Juno) in my Wifey water bottle from my wedding. To the left is a replica hydria depicting Zeus and holding peacock feathers, which my husband gave me for our household altar. In front is an altar box where I keep random love notes my husband gives me, also holding my wedding jewelry. The whole thing is scattered in lotus petals and olive leaves which I am definitely not going to sweep up and make into a tea out of curiosity.

My husband joined me under my veil to drink a toast to the anniversary couple 🥰

Hi! I’m not sure if you are still doing your ways to worship certain deities posts but if you are do you think you could do one about Lady Hera?

Ways of Honouring and Worshipping Queen Hera

To note Hera is the Wife of Zeus and the Queen of the Gods. She is also the Goddess of marriage and childbirth and the protectress of women. She also bore the epithet Eileithyia at Árgos and Athens and was the Patron of those cities, giving her correspondence with Athena.

Learn her Epithets: Eileithyia, Gamêlia, Zugia and Teleia

Imagery of Cows, Cuckoo's, Peacocks, Panthers, Lions, Eagles and shelled animals

Peacock feathers, ethically sourced or faux cow leather, cow horns, snail shells etc

Research the celebrated "The Shield" that was held in her honour at Sámos

Research the Heraia

Self care days - baths with Epsom salts, bath bombs, face maks

Glamour magic

Colour magic! (Pinks/rose, purples, white and royal colours such as rich blues and greens)

Celebrate the solstices and the changing of the seasons

Any royal imagery such as thrones, crowns, scepter etc

Plants and Scents: lily, lotus, poppy, waterlily, maple, coconut, iris, rose, cyprus

Wear jewelerry made of rich gems and jewels like silver, garnets, diamond, sapphire and citrine

Apples and pomegranates

Statues and painting were common traditional offerings to Hera

Learning marriage customs

Have sex! (But don't cheat, iykyk)

Learn the Homeric hymns written for her

Set boundaries for yourself, especially in romance

Take care of your home physically and energetically

Most importantly take care of yourself

A prayer to Hera
