Juno - Queen of the Gods (#3 of 4 Part Series)

Juno is the Queen of Gods and embodies the traditional female roles of wife and mother. She helped bring children into the world and strengthen their bones. She is Goddess of conception and in ancient times called upon in labour. She was also called upon to help marital disputes.

Juno and Jupiter were Emperor and Empress of the gods and were the first to be joined in marriage (Jupiter’s idea). It is said Juno was a maiden when married. The month of June is named after Juno and is considered the most favorable month for marriage.

Despite her husband’s numerous affairs – Juno remained loyal to Jupiter.

Juno protected the “Royal Mint”, and is known as the "keeper of the coin". 

Strengths: Leadership and loyalty. Juno represents the regal feminine and uses her benevolent authority to protect others. Where Juno is placed in your natal chart signifies your power to rule in that environment. She is loyal, tenacious and unselfish in her service. Juno provides the emotional and practical support to enable her partner to concentrate on his mission. This has long been considered the traditional role of wife.

Weakness: Jealousy and vindictiveness when threatened. She can be arrogant, controlling and aggressive when challenged – thereby abusing her power. She can betray and break confidences and loses her true identity when she suppresses her own needs.   Juno was also able to throw lightning bolts like her husband, Jupiter!

Juno in a man's chart can indicate his attitudes towards women partners in his life, and may seek a "type" to fit that image.  If the relationship is not mutually beneficial or respectful, he can expect retaliation and challenges to his authority and possessions.
