This Is What You Need To Know About Your House Placement In Ceres

In Roman Mythology, Ceres is associated with the Earth, because she was the goddess of agriculture and fertility. Ceres reminds me a lot of the sign of Cancer. Many will argue that she is represented by Virgo, but I see the ominous side of Cancer because of the more intricate deep motherly love of this water sign. Yes, Ceres does rule agriculture and will be seen as synonymous to the sign of Virgo.

But Virgo is more intellectual than nurturing.

Virgo is ruled by Mercury, whereas Ceres is connected to the world and represents fertility, the cycle of life and death which is a very strong water sign trait (Scorpio, anyone?) and to me resonates more with Cancer. The lunar sign shows the beauty of motherhood and love, but when Cancer has been hurt, we see the shadow side to her. Cancer is fierce, she represents the gloomy chaotic side that we do not want to explore. This is why the Summer months are sometimes unbearable for people, because there is a deep hurt that pushes us within and burns us from inside. Cancer is Cardinal and teaches us how to handle our emotions, how we let them live and die before facing on. It exposes the darkest side of our core, it makes us stronger.

Virgo, has its complexities, but nothing relating to the deep emotional abyss that water signs take us to. All we have to do is recall the effects of the eclipse, to understand the emotional and psychological turmoil that water seasons can bring.

Ceres here seeks to nurture her ego; the self takes precedence and throughout their life, the native will find ways to use their drive to make a difference. That selfish love gets transformed into selfless love as they mature, especially if they end up falling in love and having a family of their own.

When Ceres is in the eighth house, the native wants to be nurtured by the darker side of things. What others might find taboo will get them interested. Here the native seeks a form of destruction in order to be reborn or remade. Witchcraft might appeal to them or a new form of Theology. If the metaphysical is not enough, the physical, such as sex and other forms of pleasures will nurture them. The Second and eighth Houses want to experience pleasures. One in the physical realm and the other in another dimension.

Ceres in the tenth uses their fame to help others.
