GODDESS OF THE MONTH PERSEPHONE

PERSEPHONE (goddess of grain and fertility, queen of the underworld) is the wife of HADES the cruel god of the underworld. She was captured by Hades at an early age to be Hades's wife. She can only leave the underworld for six months a year, during this time it is summer and spring.

WEEKLY MYTH

The Greeks had more than one myth to describe the beggining of time. In this one they said that time laid an egg from which hatched EROS. A god with coiling serpents for legs. He was the first ruler and gave birth to everything that followed after him.

GOD OF MONTH: ZEUS

The February god is ZEUS. ZEUS IS the ruler of MT. Olympus, the home of the gods, and the god of the sky and storms. He is one of the 3 sons of CRONUS and RHEA. He is the husband of HERA and the father of: ARTEMIS, APOLLO, HERMES, ARES, PERSEPHONE, HEPHAESTUS, ATHENA.His favorite was his MASTER BOLT.

WEEKLY MYTH

As my beginning myth I shall start with the myth of creation. Long, long, ago the Greeks believed that the world began with a swirling void of chaos which gave birth to three gods: Gaia (goddess of earth), Tartarus (god of the place below earth), and Eros (god of love). After that came Uranus (god of the sky). Gaia married Uranus and they gave birth to the Titans who gave birth to the gods of Olympus who gave birth to everything else in the world.

HADES GOD of the MONTH

 This month's god is Hades because Hades's kingdom is as dark as the winters. Hades is the god of death and the underworld. Hades's wife is Persephone (who has her own month) and one of the weekly myths is how Persephone is captured and taken to the Underworld. Hades's main weapon is his helm of darkness, which would turn him invisible and allowed him to cross through walls.
