She lived with Hades (Pluto) in the Underworld as his wife. He captured her and took her there. When she was found, Zeus ordered her to be let go and brought back. As she was leaving Hades made her eat a pomegranate seed which would somehow make her have to stay with him for 4 months (I believe) out of every year.
Every year when persephone comes back to the underworld for six months after she leaves for six months
Persephone lived in the Underworld six months of every year (winter) and aboveground with her mother Demeter during the other six (summer).
The six months she is in the Underworld are Autumn and Winter. When she is reunited with Demeter (her mother) it is Spring and Summer.
No, but Persephone ate the pomegranate seeds, and was bound to the underworld for six months out of the year. Wiki on!!
It was Hades who kidnapped Persephone. He brought her to the Underworld where she became the Queen of the Underworld. She now lives there six months a year.
in the roman myth that i read about Persephone she ate six seeds so that six months will be cold, and six hot. Making winter in the last three, with snow and hunger, the next ones are the spring where she comes back to her mother, and everything starts to recuperate, then summer where everything is fine and happy, then fall where Persephone leaves her mother for the upcoming six months
It is likely that Persephone dwelt with Demeter either upon Olympus or the earth.
During the six months without Persephone, Hades typically focused on ruling the Underworld and overseeing the souls of the dead. He maintained order, carried out judgments, and managed the realm of the afterlife while waiting for Persephone's return.
Her daughter Persephone returns to her husband Hades in the Underworld.
Persephone stays in the Underworld for half of the year (six months) and is allowed to return to Olympus for the other half.
It was a trick so she'd have to occasionally return to the underworld.
She is a goddess. She cannot die. She just goes to the underworld to live with Hades for six months. Each year, she comes out of the Underworld, she is the Goddess of Spring, so she brings spring.
