HERA: Mrs ZEUS. Supreme Greek Goddess and the Queen of Olympus.

She's also a Goddess of Marriage and Birth, which is somewhat ironic considering that her notoriously unfaithful husband ZEUS produced an incredible number of illicit offspring with an entire pantheon of lovely ladies. If he wasn't liasing with LETO and LEDA, he was getting friendly with DANAE, THEMIS or MNEMOSYNE - all behind HERA's back. He used every trick in the book to mislead and divert her away from his affairs.

Hera was the goddess of storms because of the turbulent relationship she had with her husband, Zeus. She had female qualities of fertility combined with fickleness.
