the earth was a great place and the crops and flowers would grow big and strong, every plant in the world would grow no matter if it was sunny or raining!
When Demeter was happy, she allowed the Earth to be fertile and prosperous, leading to bountiful harvests and abundant growth of plants and crops. This resulted in a flourishing and abundant natural environment with rich vegetation and thriving ecosystems.
I don't recall a story in which Demeter punished the Earth.
He felt upset that Demeter froze Earth and wouldn't unfreeze Earth.
Demeter allows spring time to return to the Earth. While she is in the underworld the earth is in winter because her mother is in mourning due to missing her.
Greek: deo - earth meter/mater- mother Demeter. Earth Mother
Demeter and Persephone were both goddesses of the earth. Gaia (Earth) through her daughter Rhea, who was the mother of Demeter and grandmother of Persephone.
Well from what I remember from the story I read,Persephone's mother Demeter,who was the god of harvest and seasons and stuff,had gotten the chance to see Persephone for 6 months and is happy,which is why we have Summer and Spring,then she must return to the underworld,in which at this time Demeter is sad and angry, that's why we have Fall and Winter,and why we have a change in seasons Hope this helped, Sharmaine
Demeter falls into a deep depression, and wanders the lands in search of her daughter. When she finds out what actually happened, she refuses to let anything grow upon the earth, and the earth falls into Winter, until her daughter is brought back to her again.
Demeter is the Greek goddess of earth and harvest.
Demeter is a goddess of agriculture, grain, and bread. That which grows on earth and is eatable was her domain.
Spring (Persephone returns, Demeter allows the Earth to give life) Winter (Persephone as Queen of Underworld/Dead, Demeter mourning) Death (Persephone/Demeter - separating decent) Life (Persephone/Demeter - on Earth)
Helios, the sun god. He sees everything happen and when Demeter goes to look for Persephone, Helios tells her what happened
Hecate who heard the cry and led Demeter to Helios, and then led Demeter into the Underworld to Hades and Persephone.
