Persephone is considered a duel goddess, meaning she encompasses both the maiden phase and the mother phase.
As the maiden, Persephone is the goddess of Spring, new beginnings, and new life. She represents virginity, purity, and naivety.
As the mother, Persephone is the Queen of the Underworld.
She represents primal desire, love, passion, motherhood, and sexuality.
In mythology, Persephone is the daughter of Demeter (Goddess of the Harvest) and Zeus (God of Sky & Thunder). Her husband, who is also her uncle, is Hades, God of the dead and the Underworld.
Honor Persephone on your altar with flowers and crystals of bright colours during Ostara and Mabon, which are two sabbats associated with her.
