Hera

Divine matrimonial patron

Hera is the queen of the Greek gods, wife and sister of Zeus, goddess of marriage and childbirth.

In mythology she is famously jealous, persecuting Zeus's many lovers and their offspring—most notably Heracles, whose name ironically means "glory of Hera." The Romans identified her with Juno.
