Hera, the Queen of Heaven, is known for her extreme jealousy of Zeus's lovers and offspring. According to myths, her jealousy led her to torment these illicit children of Zeus and cause disasters like the creation of the Milky Way. She drove the mother of Dionysus, Semele, to her death and sent serpents after the infant Heracles. Hera opposed heroes like Aeneas and tried to prevent the fulfillment of prophecies through storms and other means. However, she occasionally aided allies like the Argonauts when it suited her interests.

2. Introduction Hera, who walks in golden sandals, is the Queen of Heaven, always a virgin, for she recovers her maidenhood every year by bathing in a spring called Canathus in Argolis. Hera is known for her jealousy, and because of it, she persecuted her husband's lovers and the children he had by them.

3. Creation of the Milky Way According to some, the Milky Way (Via Lactea) was formed by the milk of Hera, which flowed when she realized that she had been giving milk to Hermes (or Heracles), and thrust him away. But it is also said that the Milky Way commemorates the milk of Hera with which she was to anoint and feed Dionysus in order to heal his madness.

4. Semeleand Dionysus Semele, mother of Dionysus, is said to have died because of the jealousy of Hera. For Hera, having learned that Zeus had agreed to do for Semele whatever she asked, persuaded her to ask Zeus that he would come to her as he came to Hera. Zeus could not refuse, and so he came in all his glory, which, being a sight impossible for a mortal to survive, caused Semele's destruction

5. Opposing Heracles Hera sent all kind of difficulties to Heracles 1, son of Zeus and Alcmena, including serpents to his cradle. When Heracles 1 was about to be born, Zeus declared that the descendant of Perseus,then about to be born would reign over Mycenae, and Hera out of jealousy persuaded Ilithyia to retard Alcmena's delivery, contriving that Eurystheus, who was also a descendant of Perseus 1, should be born a seven-month child

6. Hera is said to have transformed Io into a cow, but Zeus consorted with her anyway, assuming the form of a bull. Then Hera sent a gadfly to torment the cow Io, who was compelled to wander through many countries. Others say, however, that it was Zeus who turned her into a cow to avoid Hera's anger . Letotoo, because of having made love to Zeus, was hunted over the whole earth by Hera, until she came to Delos where she gave birth to Apollo and Artemis. When Paris judged the goddesses, Hera promised him the kingdom over all men, but he took the hand of Helen that Aphrodite had offered him. For this offence Hera desired the destruction of Troy and the Trojans, and she opposed all their military efforts. Later, when Trojan Aeneas left for Italy, after the sack of Troy, Hera, attempting to prevent him from fulfilling his fate, sent storms, having sought help from Aeolus ,whom she promised a fair nymph in marriage if he lashed fury into the winds against the ships of Aeneas.

7. Friends For the sake of helping the Achaeans in the Trojan War, and wishing to keep Zeus from the battles, Hera requested and received Aphrodite's help in the form of her magic belt, and so she could distract him with the belt's and her own charms. Hera was a friend to the ARGONAUTS, because she expected them to return with Medea, who was fated to become the curse of King Pelias 1 of Iolcus

8. Other victims of Hera's wrath It is said that Tiresias was blinded by Hera for saying that women enjoy the pleasures of love ten times more than men.Hera cast Orion's wife Side 2 into Hades because, as they say, she rivalled her in beauty. Hera curtailed Echo's speech, because she held the goddess in long talk, preventing her to catch the NYMPHS who had been in her husband's company.
