What is my Ceres sign?

How you look after people, and how you want to be looked after. Enter your birth details below and the answer is computed from the Swiss Ephemeris, the same data professional software uses.

Day, month and year.

Only matters if you were born on the day it changed sign.

Town or city, and the country. Used to work out the timezone.

Does the birth time matter for this one?

Ceres crosses a sign in a few months, so a birth date is enough except for a birth within a day or so of the change.

Ceres through the twelve signs

Ceres in Aries

Ceres is read as how you look after people and how you want to be looked after. In Aries, care is given as encouragement to go and do it, and received best as somebody clearing the way rather than fussing.

Ceres in Taurus

Care is given physically: food, warmth, money, presence. It is received the same way, and the tradition notes this is the placement most likely to feel loved by being fed.

Ceres in Gemini

Care is given in words and attention: asking, listening, explaining. It is received as being talked to, and felt as neglect the moment somebody goes quiet.

Ceres in Cancer

Ceres in the sign of the mother, and read as care at its most instinctive. Given generously and continuously, received as being kept close, with the traditional caution that the two become hard to separate.

Ceres in Leo

Care is given warmly and visibly: praise, attention, open delight in somebody. It is received as being made a fuss of, and felt as neglect when you go unnoticed.

Ceres in Virgo

Care is given practically: the thing fixed, the appointment made, the detail remembered. It is received the same way, and rarely announced as care by either party.

Ceres in Libra

Care is given as fairness and company: nobody left out, nothing allowed to become awkward. It is received as being consulted and treated as an equal.

Ceres in Scorpio

Care is given intensely and privately, as total loyalty to a small number of people. It is received as being trusted with what is not said anywhere else.

Ceres in Sagittarius

Care is given as freedom and perspective: encouragement to go, and a larger frame put around whatever has gone wrong. It is received as not being fenced in.

Ceres in Capricorn

Care is given as provision and reliability rather than as warmth. It is received as somebody being there, on time, doing what they said, which the tradition reads as the tenderness this placement can actually accept.

Ceres in Aquarius

Care is given even-handedly and at a slight distance, often to a group rather than a person. It is received as being accepted exactly as you are without having to be understood.

Ceres in Pisces

Care is given by absorbing what somebody else is feeling, sometimes well past the point of usefulness. It is received as being met without having to explain, and the boundary is the work.

One placement is not a chart

A ceres sign is one line of about forty in a birth chart, and reading it alone is how astrology gets its reputation for being vague. The full chart is free and takes the same three details you have just entered.
