Demeter, the Greek goddess of agriculture and harvest, created the seasons in response to the abduction of her daughter Persephone by Hades, the god of the underworld. Grieving for her lost daughter, Demeter withdrew her gifts from the earth, leading to barren winters. When Persephone was allowed to return for part of the year, Demeter rejoiced, resulting in the flourishing of spring and summer. Thus, the cycle of seasons reflects the relationship between mother and daughter, symbolizing life, death, and rebirth.
