The Greek Goddess Hera is the deity of marriage and childbirth. Despite being the patron of marriage, her notoriously unhappy marriage to the king of the Gods, Zeus, caused her to become perhaps the most famous cuckolded wife of all time. Her beauty was well known, but her vindictive nature, demonstrated through the ruthless action she took against the participants in her husband's affairs, took away from the attractiveness of the Queen of the Skies. She is associated with peacocks, which also ties into her perpetual quest to prevent Zeus's infidelity. According to mythology, a priestess that worshipped Hera had caught the attention of Zeus. Knowing her husband's persistent ways, Hera set her hundred-eyed giant watchman, Argos, to guard her priestess. This was no match for Zeus, and he conspired to have Argos killed. To save her guardsman, she transformed him into a peacock, which is the origin of the bird's distinctive plumage.
