Juno

Juno is Hera's Roman aspect. As Juno, she becomes more disciplined, militaristic, and warlike. She wears a black hooded robe with armor underneath and her goatskin cloak over the shoulders. The Greeks envisioned Hera as an imperious and proud being whereas the Romans saw Juno as the patron goddess of Rome. This can be seen in her defiance of her husband's orders where she stated that she may have complied as Hera but she needed to take action against the giants as Juno. She plays a important role in The Heroes of Olympus series by trying to bring the Seven demigods together in order to stop Gaea.

History
Juno, is the Roman Great Goddess, the Queen of the Gods, Protectress of Women, Mother of Mars, Wife of Jupiter, She of the many epithets and a long long history of worship in Rome. She was one of the Capitoline Triad, with Jupiter and Minerva, Who were considered the three main Deities of Rome; She was widely worshiped among the Latins, and her cult was also important among the Etruscans.

The first days of each Roman month, the calends, were sacred to Juno, as was the entire month of June, which is still named for her. Five cities in Latium (the region of the Latin tribe) also named a month for her: Aricia, on the Via Appia; Lanuvium, where She was worshiped as Juno Sospita ("Juno the Saviouress"), Praeneste (modern Palestrina), Tibur (modern Tivoli, the resort town of Rome), and Laurentum, located between Lavinium and Ostia on the coast. And as Juno is the Roman Goddess of Marriage, it is no coincidence that June is still considered the proper month for weddings.

Representation
She is generally pictured like a matron, with a grave and majestic air, sometimes with a scepter in her hand, and a veil on her head: she is represented also with a spear in her hand, and sometimes with a patĕra, as if she were about to sacrifice: on some medals she has a peacock at her feet, and sometimes holds the Palladium. Homer represents her in a chariot adorned with gems, having wheels of ebony, nails of silver, and horses with reins of gold,though more commonly her chariot is drawn by peacocks, her favorite birds. The most obvious and striking character of Juno, and that which we are apt to imbibe the most early of any, from the writings of Homer and Virgil, is that of an imperious and haughty wife. In both of these poets we find her much oftener scolding at Jupiter than caressing him, and in the tenth Aeneid in particular, even in the council of the gods, we have a remarkable instance of this.

The Lost Hero
Jason has a vision of Juno asking him for assistance, and he learns from Clovis, a sleepy child of Hypnos, that his memories were actually stolen by Juno.

While in Cabin One, Jason is visited by Juno, who promises she is watching over him as his patron and gives him a new gladius to replace his old weapon before Piper comes to bring him to the council of cabin leaders.

The Son of Neptune
Percy stumbles upon an old 'hippie' lady named June who is in reality Juno in disguise. June gives him a choice: he can carry her to the safety of Camp Jupiter (the Roman equivalent of Camp Half-Blood) across the highway and Tiber River to regain his memory and, eventually, save the world, or he can retreat to the safety of the sea and live a long, happy life. Percy eventually chooses to carry her.

When Percy arrives to Camp Jupiter, the old woman, being carried to safety by Percy, reveals herself as the goddess Juno. Juno tells the camp that Percy is a son of Neptune who has been slumbering for months.
