Why was Hephaestus crippled?
There are several answers regarding this topic. (1) Hephaestus was thrown from Olympus by his mother, Hera, when she saw his unsightly face. As he fell, he was crippled by a ledge or was crippled by the landing. (2) Hephaestus was crippled in his forges. When his mother, Hera, saw him as a cripple, she was disgusted. Repulsed, she threw her son (disowning him in the process) from Olympus. All of the stories agree on what happens next: When Hephaestus lands in the ocean, the ocean beings cared for him for many months - and possibly years. Some time during that time, he sought revenge on his hateful mother. He sent her a golden throne. She, being extremely obsessed with perfection, loved automatically. However, when she sat upon it, she found herself unable to get up. Hephaestus had designed it to trap her. The other Olympians realised what had happened and begged Hephaestus to return and free her. Eveventually, Dionysus (the God of Wine) sought out the spiteful Hephaestus and rendered him drunk. He then brought the unconcious God back to Olympus where he realised his mother. Before he had a chance to leave, Zeus (his father) asked him to stay and work in his forges again. Hephaestus agreed, but was always quite cold towards Hera who acted the same in return.
What is a ritual associated with Hephaestus?
One of the most documented rituals associated with Hephaestus is "The Return of Hephaestus" where padded dancers and men dressed as satyrs would accompany chorus leader Dionysus as he escorted the drunk Hephaestus back to Mount Olympus. This ritual was believed to closely follow the myth of the same theme, when the stubborn Hephaestus was given wine by Dionysus and led inebriated back home to release his mother Hera from her imprisoning throne, which the smith god had previously given her as a duplicitous gift. It is also worth noting that an entire festival to Hephaestus (the Hephestia) was once celebrated, and doubtlessly involved rituals to honor the god.

What happened between Hephaestus and Aphrodite?
Hephaestus and Aphrodite were put in an arranged marriage by Hephaestus's (step)father Zeus in order to prevent fights over Aphrodite between the other gods because of her beauty. She was unhappy in the marriage so she cheated on him with Aries he god of war.Hephaestus found out about Aphrodite's cheating from the all-seeing Sun(Helios), and planned a trap for them during one of their rendezvous. While Aphrodite and Ares were together in bed, Hephaestus entrapped them in an unbreakable chain-link net (so small that it was invisible) and dragged them to Mount Olympus to embarrass them in front of the other gods for revenge.However, the gods laughed and were amused, so Poseidon persuaded Hephaestus to free them and assured him that Ares would pay the adulterer's fine.In some versions of the story: Hephaestus states in that he would return Aphrodite to her father and demand back his bride price: this is the one episode that links them.
