Aphrodite

Indeed, you are 46% erudite, 79% sensual, 58% martial, and 46% saturnine.

Aphrodite
Born from the foam of the sea, Aphrodite became the Greek Goddess of Love and Beauty. This is a polite way of saying she was the Goddess of Sex. In the case of Aphrodite, perhaps it would be more accurate to say she was the Goddess of sex, sex, and more sex.

Obviously all this sex couldn't possibly be good 100% of the time, and it wasn't. Aphrodite was as well known for the pain she brought as she was for the pleasures of sexual passion which she personified. The lesson she taught was: "Every pleasure has its price."

The most notorious example of this is when she promised Paris, a Prince of Troy, the love of the world's most beautiful woman, Helen, if only he would judge her the fairest Goddess in a ridiculous contest that developed between Aphrodite, Hera, and Athena. Unable to resist such a lusty bribe, the foolish Prince declared Aphrodite the winner, which irked Hera and Athena to no end. True to her word, Aphrodite allowed Helen to fall under the seductive charms of young Paris.

What happened next most everyone knows - a ten year war that didn't come to an end until a certain wooden horse came on the scene.

In spite of all the pain and misery that Aphrodite brings to those who naively think of love as a simple matter full of sunshine and lollipops, she is still the Goddess of beauty and can be very gentle to those who respect and understand her sensual and complex nature.

.....what the heck? How did I get this? That's what I get for being on the inexperienced side of love and being curious.

Your result for The Mythological Goddess Test ...

Isis
Indeed, you are 79% erudite, 83% sensual, 63% martial, and 58% saturnine.

Persephone

Persephone, the wife of Hades, was the Greek Goddess of Death and the Underworld as well as the Goddess of Spring and Summer. This is a rare mix of things to be the Goddess of, so you might want to hear her story.

While gathering flowers in a field one day, the beautiful daughter of Zeus and Demeter was abducted to the Underworld by Hades, who arose in his chariot from a fissure in the ground. Her mother Demeter, Goddess of the Harvest, was heartbroken, and while she wandered the length and breadth of the earth in search of her daughter, the crops withered and it became perpetual winter.

At length Hades was persuaded to surrender Persephone for one half of every year. This became the spring and summer seasons when flowers bloom and the earth bears fruit once more. The other half of the year that Persephone spent in the Underworld as Hades' queen coincides with the barren season.

Although Persephone did have a brief crush on Adonis, she nevertheless remained true to her macabre husband, just as he remained faithful to her. You might think of Persephone and Hades as the Morticia and Gomez Adams of the Hellenic world.

Minerva
Indeed, you are 75% erudite, 54% sensual, 46% martial, and 38% saturnine.



Another virgin Goddess (Diana or Artemis being the other), Minerva was, just like her Greek counterpart Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom and Freedom as well as an all powerful Goddess of War, which made her a most formidable opponent indeed.
Among the many disciplines that fell under her control were: writing, the sciences, architecture, embroidery, and just about anything else dealing with artistic skills, wise counsel, and of course battle and warfare.

Like Athena, owls were considered sacred to Minerva, representing wisdom. She was a very wise warrior, respected by the Roman legions.

She was also, no kidding, the Goddess of Women's Rights and patroness of career women.

Maeve

71% erudite
92% sensual
83% martial
63% saturnine

Maeve was once thought of as a historical queen but is now considered a part of celtic mythology.
She is usually depicted as eithier a winged sprite, a beautiful elf, or a human woman dressed in only the finest robes.
She was said to carry two tree-dwelling creatures on eithier side of her shoulders; the squirrel and the raven,
resembling her closeness to nature and mysticism. She also frequented the area which was said to hold the entrance to
the other world, which is now called the cave of cats. Maeve is known for an insatiable sexual appetite and boasting openly
sleeping with thirty men in one day.

Sedna
Indeed, you are 71% erudite, 8% sensual, 96% martial, and 71% saturnine.

Deep in her underwater realm named Adliden, the place where the souls of the dead were taken to pay for their sins, this Inuit Goddess of the Ocean and all its creatures ruled with cruelty nurtured by bitterness. And who would blame her. Her story is in fact quite tragic.
Sedna was once a beautiful young woman whom men from far off villages would come to court. But she was a haughty maiden and would have nothing to do with them. That is, until the fateful day a handsome young hunter came into the village. He succeeded in convincing her that they should be married. The wedding took place after which Sedna was whisked away by her new husband. The beautiful young man was in fact a supernatural being, in this case a terrible bird-spirit.

When Sedna's father found out about this, he became filled with anger for the shame this brought upon his good name. He recovered Sedna using a small kayak, but the bird-spirit brought forth dark storm clouds causing massive waves to batter the kayak. But Sedna's father was a cowardly and selfish man. He reasoned that his daughter was the cause of this situation, and so he threw her into the tumultuous sea hoping that this sacrifice might placate the awful spirit. The storm ceased, followed by an unnatural calm.

Sedna's father made his way back to the village where he began to feel pretty good about his restored honour. That night he slept a deep and unnatural sleep. Sedna had become the Goddess of the Ocean and placed a spell upon her one time father. And what a dark vindictive Goddess she had become. Sedna caused the sea to wash away all traces of her father’s village and pull him down into her vast watery kingdom. Needless to say, their reunion was not a pleasant one
