Hera: is Zeus' wife and sister. She was raised by the Titans Ocean and Tethys.She is the Queen of the Gods and of the heavens; goddess of women, marriage, and motherhood.

Demeter:The central myth of Demeter, which is at the heart of the Eleusinian Mysteries, is her relationship with Persephone, her daughter. Goddess of fertility, agriculture, nature, and the seasons.

Hestia: is Zeus' sister. She is a virgin goddess. She does not have a distinct personality. She plays no part in myths. She is the Goddess of the Hearth, the symbol of the house around which a new born child is carried before it is received into the family.

Aphrodite: Some say she is the daughter of Zeus and Dione. The other theory is that when Cronus castrated Uranus and tossed his severed genitles into the sea. Aphrodite then arose from the sea foam on a giant scallop and walked to shore in Cyprus. She is the wife of Hephaestus. The myrtle is her tree. The dove, the swann, and the sparrow her birds.She is the Goddess of love, beauty, desire, and fertility.
