Was Persephone considered a goddess

Answer 1

She is most famous for being Hades wife, and Demeters daughter. Hades saw her and immediately took her as his wife, even after her mothers refusal. It is said that the seasons change because during spring and summer Persephone is visiting her mother Demeter, and since Demeter is happy the plants flourish, but during winter time Persephone returns to Hades and Demeter weeps, causing the plants to wither and die. It is also claimed that Persephone is the only person who is able to calm Hades from his tempers and angry outbursts.

Answer 2

Relatively strong. She was one of the three main Chthonic deities, sometimes call The Chthonic Triad, along with her husband Hades and her Titaness handmaid, Hekate. Do be clear that "chthonic" means only EARTH deity ... e.g., not an Olympian. They were NOT "evil" -- no more so than the Olympians and sometimes rather less! Both Persephone and Hekate are popular deities appealed to in magic, amulets and curse tablets for protection and/or help/assistance. Like her husband, she had a reputation for being somewhat stern, but also seemed to take in babies (Dionysos, Adonis ...) Maybe because Hades never gave her one of her own!
