Ceres lost her daughter Persephone to the underworld. It’s helpful to work with that myth in charts with a strong Venus/Pluto contact. But Ceres has her own view of things, her own story. She was the one who had to let go, let her daughter be abducted to Hades year after year.

No matter where she sits in the chart you’ll find a theme of loss and return. Suzuki said, “We don’t need to learn how to let things go, we just need to recognize when they’re already gone.” When Persephone departs for Hades in your life, Ceres feels it. There’s a dark void that opens in your heart, a rip in space and time that sends you spiraling. Ceres is all about surrender, the actual act of surrender, of “melting to the highest”. She rises to her noblest the day you lose something of value related to her house position or aspects.

I have joint custody with my son’s Scorpio mom. She remarried another Scorpio and lives down the mountain in the plains. When six months pass, my son must leave to go down into the valley to be cared for by the Hades pair. He cries when he leaves but he knows he must go. He counts the days till his return. Six months later he re-emerges from the underworld and we have a grand time. Sometimes Ceres is that literal. In the seventh house, relationships might end and re-begin. In the tenth house, the same theme of loss and return may play out with a career.

Thank you for posting this!
It does make sense, my Ceres is conjunct the MC.

I have Ceres in Virgo, 7th house, conjunct my Vertex.

Persephone in Scorpio, 9th house, square sun-mercury, sextile venus and trine mars; square ascendant.

Usually Ceres is interpreted strictly as having to do with nurturing, but the OP description also makes sense when you take the total myth into account.
