Want to know how someone is feeling deprived at the moment (other than what we’re all going through due to Covid)? Look up where Gemini Ceres retrograde is in their chart now. Ceres is retrograde here until January 13, 2022. Ceres is the universal mother earth, and reflects how you take care of yourself.
To go even deeper, look up your MOTHER’S Ceres. This will tell you how you learned to take care of yourself, and what you were brought up to be, albeit unconsciously. It will shock you – I promise. I thought mine would naturally be like my mother’s Aries Sun, that I was brought up to be independent. But no. My mother’s Ceres was in Virgo, which makes sense although it’s pretty chilling. But it explains a lot about how I have – or have not – taken care of myself.
Another thing indicated by Ceres’ placement in your horoscope is the area most important in regard to the kind of LESSONS you derived from the mother-child relationship. Look up your mother’s natal Ceres to find out her strongest emphasis for you in your childhood. Look up your own to find out what kind of a parent you’re being.
Here is a list of everyone’s sign in Ceres. This is how you were brought up to be.
Ceres in Aries: being allowed and encouraged to be independent, driven, and energetic.
Ceres in Taurus: being comfortable and provided for in a material manner.
Ceres in Gemini: implies the need for mental stimulation.
Ceres in Cancer: implies the need for a significant amount of attention and nurturing.
Ceres in Leo: to be the center of attention
Ceres in Virgo: for perfection and being of service.
Ceres in Libra: strong relationships and fairness.
Ceres in Scorpio: sexual expression.
Ceres in Sagittarius: a strong belief system and knowledge.
Ceres in Capricorn: ambition and status.
Ceres in Aquarius: friends and being part of a group.
Ceres in Pisces: transcendence and fantasy.
It’s easy to project one’s patterns with one’s parents onto close relationships you have in your lives now. And these can rule our future. So – look up where Ceres is! Look up your mother’s Ceres, most importantly! Look up your partner’s, your close friends’, your boss’. It’s amazing the family secrets you will find.
Look up in any ‘asteroid ephemeris’ – you can google it online – and it will tell you what sign Ceres was in on any particular day.
And, of course, this allows you, empowers you to make more informed decisions in your life.
Remember, Ceres is about mother – child, and not father – child. So for a woman, it doesn’t make sense to apply this to a partner of the opposite sex. Although looking up his mother’s Ceres reveals some very interesting things…I looked up my partner’s mother, and her Ceres is in Virgo. Eeks! Same as my mother’s. And this of course opens a whole other goldmine any psychologist worth their salt would enjoy.
I looked up my dad’s and it was such a fun one – Ceres in Leo – and it made me wish I’d had more of that influence growing up (I lived with my mother 3,000 miles away in another country.)
Any retrograde in your natal chart means that the energy of that planet / asteroid represents becomes harder for you to express.
Good news. The planets – and asteroids – are going direct again. Pluto went direct October 6; Saturn went direct October 10; Mercury, your ruling planet of brilliance, along with lucky Jupiter, went direct October 18; and Pallas goes direct November 7. What has been held back, will now start to move forward. The next two weeks will be especially active.
The question to ask now: what is holding you back from your greater greatness?
And this is why you want to get your November horoscope.
Happy Reading. Happy November! Beautiful shining star you!
The ten hours’ light is abating,
And a late bird wings across,
Where the pines, like waltzers waiting,
Give their black heads a toss.
