Juno doesn't hate Aeneas, she hates Troy.

Juno hates Troy because Paris - a Trojan prince - awarded the Apple of Discord to Venus, and not to her.

Juno also hates Troy because Dardanus - founder of the Trojan race - was the illegitimate offspring of her husband (Zeus)'s adultery with the Pleiad (star-goddess) Electra.

And she hates Troy because Dardanus great-grandson Ganymede has become Zeus' cup-bearer (you probably need to think a bit about this one).

iudicium Paridis spretaeque iniuria formae

et genus invisum et rapti Ganymedis honores

[I.26 ...]

Juno is one of the older goddesses - and she has a heap to be jealous about.

Why does Juno hate Aeneas?

First and foremost, Juno hates Aeneas because he is a Trojan. The Trojan War began with the Judgement of Paris. Paris, a Trojan prince determined that Venus was the best goddess of all over Pallas Athena and Juno. Venus rewarded Paris with the most beautiful woman in the world, Helen, a Greek princess. Well, Helen's husband invaded Troy to get his wife back. The gods chose sides in the war, and Juno was on the side of the Greeks. Juno also hates Aeneas because he is the hero that will defeat her kingdom. Juno loves Queen Dido and her kingdom of Carthage, but Fate foretells that Aeneas will come and create an empire that will defeat Carthage. Juno tries to keep Aeneas away from Italy, but in the end surrenders to Fate and helps Aeneas in his quest.


Which goddess especially hated Aeneas?

Hera or Juno.


Did Juno cause problems for Aeneas?

Yes, Juno takes her anger out on Aeneas throughout the epic, and in her wrath she acts as his primary divine antagonist. Her anger stems from the fact that Aeneas's Roman descendants are destined to destroy her home city of Carthage.


What happened to Hera after the Trojan war?

Hera was the Roman goddess Juno, and also the patron goddess of Carthage under another name (Tanit). (Greeks and Romans considered that the gods were the same everywhere, but different cities worshiped them under different names). She was also patron of the city-states of Argos and Mycenae (and many other places). As Tanit / Juno - Hera attempted to impede Aeneas' escape from Troy to Italy;- knowing that Aeneas' descendants would found Rome, which would in time destroy her holy city of Carthage. The Aeneid has Juno as a major character, acting mainly as Aeneas' antagonist.

What almost sank Aeneas ship.?

At the very opening of the Aeneid the Trojan ships are underway to Italy and are very near landfall. Juno - who hates the Trojans - persuades the King of the Winds (Aeolus) to send a mighty storm which sinks several of the ships, breaks up the fleet, and forces the surviving sailors to put into shelter on the north African coast.There are several points in the Aeneid where Aeneas' ship almost sinks, but the likeliest answer is to your question is :the storm sent by Juno.
