The simplest answer is jealousy. There was a time when Zeus declared that the next child born of his blood would rule Mykenai. He intended it to be Heracles. Hera put a lot of time and effort into trying to kill both Alcmene (Heracles mortal mother) and the infant, but when she failed she tormented Heracles until he went mad, killing his own children. Heracles was then forced to complete the 12 labours, with Hera opposing him at every turn.
