Are you beautiful like Aphrodite, or jealous like Hera?

Which Ancient Greek God Inhabits Your Soul?

What do you like most about yourself?

It's a beautiful Saturday afternoon. What will you do today?

What is your least favorite quality about yourself?

If you could have any profession, which would you choose?

Finally, pick a house to live in on Mount Olympus:

You are without a doubt the hottest goddess on Mount Olympus. Your shining eyes, dark eyelashes, and gold-flecked hair are worthy of worship. And to top it off, you smell like cinnamon and balsam. Your burly husband Hephaestus adores you and makes you beautiful metal jewelry. During the Trojan War, you have an affair with Ares. Your husband finds out and publicly shames you and Ares, but this doesn't stop you from making adultery a habit. Gods and mortals alike can't resist you, but they should beware of your jealous temper. Rumor has it you cursed an entire island of women to have body odor so putrid, their husbands never had sex with them again. Wield your godly power carefully, Aphrodite!

Aphrodite, Goddess of Love and Beauty

You are the golden child, Zeus's favorite son, and beloved by everyone. You were born holding a golden sword, and swans circled the island seven times to celebrate your birth. You delight others with your artistic genius, writing and performing songs on your lyre. Whenever there's a wedding, you are hired as the musical entertainment. Although you take a lot of lovers, you remain unmarried because of your unrequited love for Daphne, a nymph who was struck by Cupid's leaden arrow of hatred for you. Guess you can't be perfect all the time!

Apollo, God of the Arts

You aren't afraid of confrontation and it shows! Your courage and bravery is attractive and as a result you have lots of lovers and even more kids (like, hundreds). One of these lovers is Aphrodite, your brother Hephaestus's wife. Whenever you and 'Dite hang out, you hire your friend Alectryon to keep guard and make sure nobody sees. But one night, Alectryon falls asleep on guard duty. So to punish him, you turn him into a rooster. Seems a little harsh especially considering YOU were the one being cocky. But you're a god so do what you want I guess.

Ares, God of War

To put it simply, you are a boss. As Apollo's twin sister, there's a lot of sibling rivalry to go up against. But from a young age, you had goals: 1. Stay a virgin 2. Wear a short robe so you can be comfy while you hunt 3. Rule all the mountains. So you travel to Lipara, march right up to Cyclops (yep, that Cyclops), and ask him to make you a bow and arrow. You go on to be a badass hunter and become best friends with Orion. You accidentally kill him one day, but you transfer him to the stars so that you can always look up to the sky to see him. Whatever helps you sleep at night!

Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt

You're a daddy's girl to the extreme. For real though, you were literally born out of your Dad Zeus's forehead as a fully-grown goddess. Maybe that's why you're so wise and sophisticated- the polar opposite of your sister Artemis. Because of your intelligence you are highly respected, even in matters of war. You invented chariots and wagons, and are seen as a protector of the great city of Athens. Gods and mortals alike know not to cross you- last time someone did that, you turned her into a spider. You're one of the most famous Greek goddesses for a reason!

Athena, Goddess of Wisdom and War

You are definitely the mom of your friend group. You are known for providing grain to farmers and blessing their harvest, giving you the nickname "Corn Mother" or  "Mother Earth." Your daughter Persephone is your pride and joy, but when she is abducted by Hades your life crumbles. Your depression causes the cold frost of winter, and finally you come to a custody agreement with Hades. He keeps Persephone for half the year and returns her to you for the other half. When you're with Persephone, the air warms and flowers bloom. Everything is beautiful...until Hades gets lonely and winter rolls around again.

Demeter, Goddess of Agriculture and Fertility

You're something of an outsider in your community, and were raised by several fleeting caregivers. You're well traveled, having spent much time in Asia cultivating grapes and teaching others how to make wine. Back home in Greece, you're known and loved for throwing wild parties. However because of your mysterious nature, some people don't really trust you or your followers. Luckily you know that like most of life's problems, this is easily fixed... with a bottle of wine. Cheers!

Dionysus, God of Wine

You're not one for conformity or fitting in. In fact you actively reject the mainstream, preferring to rule your own Underworld and loyal subjects. It can be lonely down there though because everyone is afraid of you. You have a bad habit of falling in love with nymphs and abducting them... I'm sure if you asked nicely they would go with you willingly... most famously, this is how you came to crown your Queen, Persephone. You kind of tricked her into being your wife which isn't great. But at least you let her visit her mom on Mt. Olympus for half the year.

Hades, God of the Underworld

You are many things, but most of all you're good with your hands! You spend most of your time hand-crafting armor, chariots, bows and arrows, jewelry- you even make Hermes' winged helmet and sandals! You marry the gorgeous Aphrodite and everyone is jealous of you, but she's not exactly the best wife (monogamy isn't really her thing). And even though you're married to the prettiest goddess on Mt. Olympus, you're drawn to Athena's wit and intelligence. However your love remains unrequited. Maybe she'll change her tune if you make her some new golden armor?

Hephaestus, God of Metalworking

Yes, queen. You're basically the Real Housewife of Mt. Olympus, ruling all the gods with your husband Zeus. Your marriage is tumultuous because Zeus cheats on you left and right and doesn't even try to cover it up. This understandably pisses you off. You're famous for your fits of jealousy and penchant for turning mortals into animals as punishment. It's a shame you spend so much time being spiteful, because if you channeled your energy into literally anything else, you would be much happier. Say it with me: LEAVE. HIM. And go be your bad single self, queen.

Hera, Goddess of Marriage

You're quite possibly the world's first diplomat. You have the unique ability to communicate effectively and for this reason you serve as a messenger between gods, mortals, and realms. Using your winged sandals, you're able to travel pretty much everywhere including the Underworld, where you guide dying souls to their final resting place. You meet a LOT of lovers on your travels, but you are most taken by Aphrodite, using your charm to win her over. Together you have a son, Hermaphroditus, who becomes a symbol of androgyny. Congrats!

Hermes, God of Merchants

You're the number one guy in the group. You rule over all the other gods and goddesses on Mt. Olympus with your wife, Hera. It's a miracle you get anything done considering all the extra-marital affairs you have with gods and mortals alike. The humans you rule are constantly pissing you off with all the dumb shit they do. So to punish them, you decide to give the first woman, Pandora, a box. Unfortunately the box is filled with all the evil in the world and when she opens the box, mankind is  doomed to misery. You're a really "tough love" kind of god. Wield your power kindly, please!

Zeus, God of the Heavens
