You scored 50% Persephone
If you exemplify the qualities of Persephone, you have most likely experienced great loss in your life -- the loss of your health or your emotional or physical security, the betrayal of a friend or lover, the loss of a child, your own divorce or that of your parents. This experience has forced you to face the dark, unenlightened side of yourself (the side that blames other people or circumstances for your own suffering) and transform yourself into a stronger, more independent, more accepting and more loving person. It may have also led you down a spiritual path, and moved you to place great emphasis on inner calm and on close connections with friends. You are capable of embracing, integrating and accepting difficult experiences. Because of that skill, you offer others the gift of empathy -- you know where they are or have been.
You scored 25% Aphrodite
If you are ruled mostly by Aphrodite, your femininity and passionate spirit are the controlling forces in your life. You tend to be charismatic and self-assured, comfortable with your body and unrestrained sexually. Men are drawn to you like bees to flowers, which satisfies your erotic nature. However, you tend not to form permanent attachments with lovers because you value your sexual freedom, which may leave you feeling lonely and even depleted once a relationship ends. To find and form a more lasting relationship, you need to add more of the goddess Hera to your life.
You scored 8% Artemis
If you are ruled by Artemis, your independent spirit belongs to no one but yourself. Your body is vibrant, your attitude robust and your manner vigorous and alive. You are driven by physical rather than mental energy. You feel complete without a man in your life and would never compromise your essential nature for a romantic partner. You are skilled at establishing personal boundaries and enter into relationships on your own terms -- in short, you can take care of yourself. This attitude may at times put men off.
You scored 8% Athena
If you are ruled by Athena, you are bright-eyed, shrewd, resourceful and inventive. With friends, you are the wise counselor -- always ready with an empowering message. You are believe strongly that women can accomplish anything men can. No wonder you put so much time into your career. Athena women tend to be ruled by their head, not by their heart. You carefully guard your intimate side, protecting your emotions and vulnerability. If you want to awaken your unexpressed womanliness, you'll have to use the same passion you apply to your intellectual achievements. It's important that you work to integrate your strong masculine side with your feminine side -- bringing together your strength with your vulnerability, your creativity with caring, your intelligence with imagination. Otherwise, you risk coming off as unaffectionate and self-righteous.
You scored 8% Hestia
If you embody the qualities of Hestia, you understand the value of having your own sacred place, whether it's an actual room or simply a time of day when you free your mind of busy thoughts and experience peace of mind. There's no doubt this place is at home -- where you feel the most joy. Home is your sanctuary. You are at home with yourself wherever you are, though, and no matter whom you are with. You know that the meaning of your life springs from your spiritual center. This brings you a great sense of security. You do not crave attention or material possessions; you nurture your friends and family with your unconditional love.

25% Persephone
25% Athena
16% Demeter


PERSEPHONE 25%

If you exemplify the qualities of Persephone, you have most likely experienced great loss in your life -- the loss of your health or your emotional or physical security, the betrayal of a friend or lover, the loss of a child, your own divorce or that of your parents. This experience has forced you to face the dark, unenlightened side of yourself (the side that blames other people or circumstances for your own suffering) and transform yourself into a stronger, more independent, more accepting and more loving person. It may have also led you down a spiritual path, and moved you to place great emphasis on inner calm and on close connections with friends. You are capable of embracing, integrating and accepting difficult experiences. Because of that skill, you offer others the gift of empathy -- you know where they are or have been.

ATHENA 25%

If you are ruled by Athena, you are bright-eyed, shrewd, resourceful and inventive. With friends, you are the wise counselor -- always ready with an empowering message. You are believe strongly that women can accomplish anything men can. No wonder you put so much time into your career. Athena women tend to be ruled by their head, not by their heart. You carefully guard your intimate side, protecting your emotions and vulnerability. If you want to awaken your unexpressed womanliness, you'll have to use the same passion you apply to your intellectual achievements. It's important that you work to integrate your strong masculine side with your feminine side -- bringing together your strength with your vulnerability, your creativity with caring, your intelligence with imagination. Otherwise, you risk coming off as unaffectionate and self-righteous. Take lessons from the goddesses Hestia and Aphrodite to do this.

DEMETER 16%

If you fit the Demeter archetype, you are a nurturer and caretaker. You have a generous heart and enjoy extending your love to others. You are motivated by the most powerful of instincts -- to give life -- and selflessly devote yourself to the life you create. You feel compelled to care for all those around you, even if they are not your own children. In short, you feel the need to be all things to all people and, therefore, your own needs sometimes go unmet. You must learn to say no, and apply Artemis's sense of boundaries and Aphrodite's ability to put herself first. That way, you can give to others from an overflowing rather than a half-full cup.

The god one is supposed to be done by the significant other about her man...so if the guy does it, does it, it isn't really accurate.

Doing it myself, I am;

30% Apollo
20% Dionysus
20% Hermes
10% Ares
10% Hephaestus
10% Hades

Talk about multiple personalities.

True to being a Gemini I am 50% Mercury (Hermes).

You scored 50% Hermes
Hermes is the messenger of the gods and the son of Zeus. He leads the souls of the dead to the underworld and is believed to possess magic powers over sleep and dreams. Hermes is responsible for making treaties, promoting commerce and guiding travelers. Hermes' character has both positive and negative qualities. Men who embody Hermes' qualities are friendly and can bring great gain -- often unexpected -- to people. However, they can also be crafty and deceiving, and may have reputations as tricksters. Hermes men are not especially heroic or dignified, but they are clever and witty. Hermes men are full of energy and spontaneity, and delight in spurring friends out of their routine.

You scored 20% Poseidon
Poseidon is god of the sea, the brother of Zeus and Hades, and second only to Zeus in power amongst the gods. He was married to Amphitrite, but he was not a faithful husband. His numerous love affairs led to the birth of children known for their wildness and cruelty. Poseidons adventurous nature sometimes gets the better of them, leading them to encourage risky behavior. Poseidon men may also be quarrelsome; they have a reputation for having difficult personalities.

You scored 20% Zeus
Zeus is the god of the sky and ruler of the Olympian gods. Zeus's weapon was the thunderbolt, which he threw at those that displeased him. According to legend, Zeus has two very different aspects of his personality. He was believed to be the god of justice and mercy and protector of the weak. Yet he was also known as a lecherous, philandering husband who unsuccessfully tried to keep his love affairs a secret from his irate wife. He was also known to punish liars and breakers of oaths. Men who embody Zeus's qualities like to be in control of their work and personal lives. Zeus men are born politicians. They are intellectual and surround themselves with people who admire and respect them. While they are capable of passion (Zeus men are great lovers) and even romance (heck, they'll do just about anything to get a girl!), they're not skilled at forming long-lasting, monogamous bonds. In fact, in relationships, Zeus men are often aloof and incapable of experiencing the inner growth that comes from being in committed, long-term relationships.

You scored 10% Ares
Ares was the son of Zeus and Hera and was disliked by both of his parents. As the god of war, he was considered murderous yet also a coward. He rejoiced in battle, yet he bellowed with pain and ran away when wounded. Not surprisingly, Ares men thrive on conflict. As lovers, they may pick fights, display jealousy and act impulsively. Ares men are competitive, adventurous and live life to the fullest. Men who embody Ares qualities have a passionate for instinct for life - and love! Their unlimited energy can be used positively or negatively. While their mindless aggression can get them into criminal trouble, their assertiveness, courage and quest for achievement can lead to revolutionary advances in business, sports and elsewhere.

You scored 8% Demeter
If you fit the Demeter archetype, you are a nurturer and caretaker. You have a generous heart and enjoy extending your love to others. Lesson.


8% Athena
If you are ruled by Athena, you are bright-eyed, shrewd, resourceful and inventive. With friends, you are the wise counselor -- always ready with an empowering message. You are believe strongly that women can accomplish anything men can.

8% Hestia
If you embody the qualities of Hestia, you understand the value of having your own sacred place, whether it's an actual room or simply a time of day when you free your mind of busy thoughts and experience peace of mind. There's no doubt this place is at home -- where you feel the most joy. Home is your sanctuary. You are at home with yourself wherever you are, though, and no matter whom you are with.

Phaedra - You are 16% Phaedra and 84% junkyard dog. As a lover, you tend to bring fleas into the bed. You likely were separated from an object of great esteem as a young pup. You enjoy the company of scabrous weasels and other lowlifes. Your warped sense of humor causes you to seek out addicted personalities and offer piteous levity to them. You likely will come to a bad end.

I guess My Greek God would have these traits
You scored 40% Hermes
Hermes is the messenger of the gods and the son of Zeus. He has winged sandals and a winged hat and carries a herald's staff, or magic wand, which he uses to put men to sleep and awaken them. He leads the souls of the dead to the underworld and is believed to possess magic powers over sleep and dreams. Hermes is responsible for making treaties, promoting commerce and guiding travelers. Hermes' character has both positive and negative qualities. Men who embody Hermes' qualities are friendly and can bring great gain -- often unexpected -- to people. However, they can also be crafty and deceiving, and may have reputations as tricksters. Hermes men are not especially heroic or dignified, but they are clever and witty. Hermes men are full of energy and spontaneity, and delight in spurring friends out of their routine. If you are with a Hermes man, no doubt he enjoys discussing his dreams and goals and encourages you to value your own. Hermes men are constantly trying to move forward and transform -- themselves and those close to them.
You scored 20% Poseidon
Poseidon is god of the sea, the brother of Zeus and Hades, and second only to Zeus in power amongst the gods. He was married to Amphitrite, but he was not a faithful husband. His numerous love affairs led to the birth of children known for their wildness and cruelty. Widely worshiped by seamen, Poseidon also created the first horse. His weapon was a trident, which he used to shake and shatter whatever he pleased. While Poseidon men can inspire positive change in your life, their adventurous nature sometimes gets the better of them, leading them to encourage risky behavior. Poseidon men may also be quarrelsome; they have a reputation for having difficult personalities.
You scored 10% Ares
Ares was the son of Zeus and Hera and was disliked by both of his parents. As the god of war, he was considered murderous yet also a coward. He rejoiced in battle, yet he bellowed with pain and ran away when wounded. Not surprisingly, Ares men thrive on conflict. As lovers, they may pick fights, display jealousy and act impulsively. Ares men are competitive, adventurous and live life to the fullest. Men who embody Ares qualities have a passionate for instinct for life - and love! Their unlimited energy can be used positively or negatively. While their mindless aggression can get them into criminal trouble, their assertiveness, courage and quest for achievement can lead to revolutionary advances in business, sports and elsewhere.
You scored 10% Dionysus
Dionysus was the god of wine (and cheer) and vegetation, and a son of Zeus. Men who are ruled by Dionysus have a mysterious quality that often draws the attention -- and sometimes the worship -- of women. They are imaginative, intuitive and inspirational. Dionysus men are good and gentle to those who respect and pay attention to them, but to those who wrong them, they are dangerous foes. They can bring madness, violence, wildness and terror. Dating a Dionysus man can feel blissful and comfortable (they have feminine qualities), and don't be surprised if any former inhibitions you once had suddenly disappear. Be careful, though: Falling for such a man usually means falling hard, which can make the breakup (if there is one) much more painful. Dionysus men have a way of making women feel more feminine, and often more emotional, too. They bring a sense of freedom that can feel liberating, yet also scary. For those who can handle this newfound flexibility and freedom, a relationship with a Dionysus man can be life changing in the most positive way; for those who cannot handle this sudden departure from a routine, ordered existence, such a relationship can be disturbing, even destructive.
You scored 10% Zeus
Zeus is the god of the sky and ruler of the Olympian gods. He was considered the protector and ruler both of the Olympian family and of the human race. Zeus's weapon was the thunderbolt, which he threw at those that displeased him. According to legend, Zeus has two very different aspects of his personality. He was believed to be the god of justice and mercy and protector of the weak. Yet he was also known as a lecherous, philandering husband (he was married to his sister, the goddess Hera) who unsuccessfully tried to keep his love affairs a secret from his irate wife. He was also known to punish liars and breakers of oaths. Men who embody Zeus's qualities like to be in control of their work and personal lives. Zeus men are born politicians. They are intellectual and surround themselves with people who admire and respect them. While they are capable of passion (Zeus men are great lovers) and even romance (heck, they'll do just about anything to get a girl!), they're not skilled at forming long-lasting, monogamous bonds. In fact, in relationships, Zeus men are often aloof and incapable of experiencing the inner growth that comes from being in committed, long-term relationships.
You scored 10% Hephaestus
Hephaestus was the god of fire and metalwork, and was much admired for his armor. Because he was born of Hera only, Zeus, Hera's husband, did not like him and expelled him from Mount Olympus. Eventually, he returned and Zeus apologized and gave him Aphrodite as a wife. Unlike other gods, who were all depicted as strong and attractive, Hephaestus was born lame, ugly and awkward. Men who have Hephaestus qualities are extraordinarily creative, interested in the arts and dedicated to their work; their talents are their strong suit. They are not comfortable when it comes to love and seem lost in the world of intimacy, yet they like children.

Well, it would appear I don't know who to be, since I'm some of most of them. I noticed that a number of the answers were not accurate for how I am, or in a few cases, the right answer was a combination of 2 or more of their answers. Be that as it may, in answering as close as I could get, here's what they had to say:

You scored 40% Apollo
Apollo is the god of prophecy, light and truth, and the son of Zeus. He was a gifted musician, master archer and an accomplished athlete. Apollo's responsibilities included protecting young men (his twin sister, the goddess Artemis, protected young women), promoting agriculture and breeding of cattle, and teaching humans the art of healing and medicine. Apollo men may have a youthful quality, which can spell trouble. In early legends, Apollo was known as a stern, even cruel, god -- full of pride, dangerously competitive, with a quick temper. After being punished by Zeus for his bad behavior, however, he changed. Thus, Apollo men are capable of growth. As mature adults, they are characterized as self-aware, balanced, rational and eager to live a harmonious, honest life (evolved Apollo men never lie). They are noble, reasonable and -- usually -- quite handsome. They go for neat, well-kept women who fit into their ordered lives. Falling in love scares Apollo men because it can be so chaotic and unexplainable. Yet they do seek love and are displeased when their love is not returned. If you ever break up with an Apollo man, watch out - their revenge can be harsh. In love, they insist on controlling the relationship, and can also be detached and dispassionate.

You scored 20% Hades
Hades was the god of the dead, ruler of the underworld and brother of the gods Zeus and Poseidon. He was also known as the lord of riches, because the underworld was filled with crops and precious metals. Men who are ruled by Hades may be rather grim, but they are not evil. That said, they are often unforgiving, unpitying and rather hard-hearted. If your man is like Hades, don't be surprised if he is not satisfied with his lot in life, as Hades was displeased when he became ruler of the underworld while his brothers controlled the sky and the sea. Typically antisocial, Hades men are more comfortable at home alone. They are familiar with dark emotions and do not shy away from them. And while Hades men are not especially sympathetic, they can help others learn from bad experiences. Hades men can bring enlightenment and renewal to your life. Watch out, though, because they are often the trigger of loss and suffering.


You scored 20% Hermes
Hermes is the messenger of the gods and the son of Zeus. He has winged sandals and a winged hat and carries a herald's staff, or magic wand, which he uses to put men to sleep and awaken them. He leads the souls of the dead to the underworld and is believed to possess magic powers over sleep and dreams. Hermes is responsible for making treaties, promoting commerce and guiding travelers. Hermes' character has both positive and negative qualities. Men who embody Hermes' qualities are friendly and can bring great gain -- often unexpected -- to people. However, they can also be crafty and deceiving, and may have reputations as tricksters. Hermes men are not especially heroic or dignified, but they are clever and witty. Hermes men are full of energy and spontaneity, and delight in spurring friends out of their routine. If you are with a Hermes man, no doubt he enjoys discussing his dreams and goals and encourages you to value your own. Hermes men are constantly trying to move forward and transform -- themselves and those close to them.

For those who can handle this newfound flexibility and freedom, a relationship with a Dionysus man can be life changing in the most positive way; for those who cannot handle this sudden departure from a routine, ordered existence, such a relationship can be disturbing, even destructive.
