You ideally need to please go read Ceres-Watch 1 for this to resonate BUT essentially, I go on and off observing this asteroid-turned- planet. So, as she has been in Virgo since November 2008 and is about to cross into Libra on August 4, this is a fab chance to collect some findings.

Note that ideas of what she represents vary widely. Ceres SO often ends up just sounding like the Moon. She is obviously linked with agriculture (the word cereal comes from her name) and as she is a.k.a.Demeter there is a link to her as that mythological mother…having to share custody of her daughter with Hades himself. Yah, Pluto…the demoted planet. Hmm. Some say Ceres is about the menses cycle & others call feminism.  Others say she signifies the eco warrior aspect of the Great Goddess.  Like Gaia.

Anyway, it will be interesting to see why wimmyn notice when Ceres goes into Libra – I think a shift from Virgo to Libra usually feels quite profound when any planet does it.

Also, if you are a mother, please compare your Moon and Ceres signs here along with which one you feel would most aptly signify your mothering style…I have Ceres in Pisces & the Moon in Libra & I think i’m more Libran Moonie at mothering with occasional veer-offs into Ceres-style. In fact, I think my Ceres only pops up when i feel absolutely absorbed by parenting to the exclusion of all else.  Could that be the key to Ceres?

Okay, so the French Justice Minister gave birth to a daughter last week & this article in the Daily Mail is at first about how she has returned to work, glamorous & happy. But she – a Saggo – is quite fascinating. She won’t say who the father is & so speculation in France is naturally rife.

“A host of magazine covers have celebrated her against-the-odds success story as the second of 12 children born to a Moroccan labourer and illiterate Algerian mother, hailing her as the new face of France.” She is France’s first female Muslim minister. “Miss Dati herself has said: ‘I left school at 16, my family was not privileged and I struggled for many years. My life is not a beautiful story.’ …Dati, who had an arranged marriage annulled in her youth, said it was ‘fundamental’ for her to have a child.”  More here.

Her astro is interesting: She has the Moon, Mars, Venus and Midheaven all close together in Capricorn so tremendous drive to draw upon and she is in the middle of a Saturn transit. Saturn is crossing her Fifth house (children, creative self-expression) Uranus & Pluto. And Uranus is on her natal Chiron & Ceres in Pisces. So the Saturn-Uranus opposition is playing out quite powerfully. Taurus Rising means she can radiate placidity, dignity & strength through all this.
