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?

anonymous-cow-grazing-1054655Holy Aphrodite! It’s the Taurus Moon and THAT time of the month. I am totally grazing and it ain’t grass.  Still, the Taurus Moon, other than increasing all of our appetites is so Sensual & Grounded, the ideal opportunity to earth oneself. Seriously, get near some ground, lie on the lawn, do some gardening, go a bit herbal…this is your tranquility zone before the Eclipse. The Gemini Moon kicks in for the weekend & Saturday has an insane amount of aspects.

It may be my Ceres transit (it and Saturn are opposing my Chiron) but i am going ape about toxic showercurtains and poisonous nail varnish. I got a new shower curtain & just freaked at the smell.

Yet a damp hemp thing hanging in the bathroom would fuq my Feng Shui for sure. And I saw the podiatrist the other day – a plain spoken Aries lady – and she said something akin to ‘wear toenail polish for a special occasion if you are wearing open-toed shoes and take it off the moment you get home.’

I have The Uranian lurking around again & so if i get home in open-toed shoes etc etc, there is no way i am going to be skulking in the bathroom inhaling also-toxic nail varnish remover removing it the moment I get home. I thought the whole point was that you get to wiggle red toes attractively in your sheets etc.  There is simply no such thing as an organic nail polish – it’s basically car paint for people. Alternatives; hippy henna or haute hippy neem oiled and buffed by podiatrist. Nail salons these days are as common as McDonalds. Maybe it’s a saturation thing. But is there a non-poisonous shower curtain anyone knows about?

And anyway, the Taurean Moon is always truly fabulous for Tree-Hugging…Let’s do it.
