Ceres governs mysteries, and our initiation into them, She oversees the mothering-nurturing aspects, yes, but her mythos and importance dive deeper considering her own relationship to her daughter, Persephone, and the sacrifice necessary to embrace these mysteries. Demeter was the Greek name for this goddess, whose daughter Persephone was abducted by Hades/Pluto and secreted away down in the Underworld. In grief and anger, Ceres withdrew her blessings from the world, causing all vegetation to perish. A compromise was reached whereby Persephone was allowed to spend 6 months above ground with her mother, but must also spend the remainder below ground, during which time nothing would grow. . Ceres placement often better demonstrates one’s style of nurturing than the Moon placement, both the creative giving of it, the style of receiving it, and its dark potential. A 12th- house Ceres might mean an elusive maternal relationship, or one where the native ingests spiritual values along with the mother’s milk. A Taurus Ceres lends groundedness to the nurturing style, while increasing the potential to want to possess those being fed. Interpreting the asteroid in terms of its archaic inner face, we discover the wise funerary priestess, Ceres in her crone phase.. Like the prehistoric crones who cradled their dying tribesmen in their arms in last rites, Ceres can inspire us as compassionate caretakers of the terminally ill to guide those in hospices, for example, to make their final descent.
