Heraby ~redheaded-step-child

Traditional Art / Paintings / Fantasy

Hera, the Greek sky goddess who is the heavenly Queen of the Gods. As the wife of Zeus, the long-suffering Hera is the patron goddess of all women, particularly those who are married. Regal and proud, she does not let insults go lightly, and her wrath has been a driving force in numerous myths. her symbols include the diadem crown, the cuckoo (cuckoos are engraved into the pillars of the gazebo in which she sits), the throne, and the peacock.

I used an image from the lovely stock of *Lisajen-stock, and the original image can be found in the stock pack here:[link]

~Luigia525 Jan 11, 2012

Evilmunchun, peacocks is the greek goddess Hera's symbol. In other words she is associated with them as they are beautiful yet feared. Which explains Hera's attitude, she is one of beauty yet if insulted or betrayed, she shows a wrath which strikes fear to man. However Hera is not pleased with her husband Zeus and his many affairs, this can be shown as most depictions of her beside Zeus give a saddened or angry feeling.
