ZUES SONS - THE DIVINE DAUGHTERS⚡⚡
PART 13 (Persephone)
Persephone,Goddess of Spring and Queen of the Underworld
Daughter of Demeter, the goddess of the harvest, and Zeus, the king of the gods, Persephone is both the Goddess of Spring, and the Queen of the Underworld. Her story is not a pleasant one. Much of her mythology is centred on her grieving mother, her abduction, and the conspiracy behind it which included her own father. Her significance reaches beyond this myth though, in a narrative that explains the changing seasons.
As the queen of the underworld and a symbol of nature’s cyclical renewal, Persephone’s journey from the sunlit fields to the depths of Hades and back again mirrors the ancient Greeks’ understanding of the natural world and the delicate balance between joy and sorrow, light and darkness.
Persephone’s story actually focuses more on her mother, DEMETER, and what happens when Persephone disappears. The young goddess is also the daughter and niece of ZEUS, and the wife and niece of HADES when she becomes the queen of the Underworld.
