Her chief function was as the goddess of women and marriage. She may bear a pomegranate in her hand, emblem of fertile blood and death and a substitute for the narcotic capsule of the opium poppy.

Hera was known for her jealous and vengeful nature, most notably against Zeus's lovers and offspring, but also against mortals who crossed her, such as Pelias. Paris offended her by choosing Aphrodite as the most beautiful goddess, earning Hera's hatred.

Hera was the ancient Greek goddess of married women. She was a very jealous goddess. Every time a man would say to a woman:

"You are the most beautiful woman in the world." or "You are more beautiful than Hera." She would go down to Earth and turn them into horrible creatures.

Whenever her husband Zeus cheated, she would be very jealous. She would take out horrible revenge on the woman and her children.
