hi everyone. I read about Atropos last year on a forum but this forum is no longer there. I wonder if anyone has information about this asteroid as in aspects with other placements in a natal or transit.

the link is very informative much like the other website I used to visit last year
but I'm still pondering what it means when in my natal chart, Atropos conjunct Psyche and Ceres in the 7th house Gemini.
so inevitable stop/cut in resources (ceres) and what about psyche there?
7th house is also where my SN is, so I'd really like to know as much as I could about this house. the SN is 13 degrees away from the 3 asteroid so I think it's not conjunction? I'd appreciate any help

Atropos is a tricky asteroid, because it has multiple meanings; one side its associated with death, the cutting of the thread of life. On the opposing side we know with death comes new life so their is a implied transformation.

Psyche is the soul looking to connect with its match and in roman mythology Ceres was a goddess of agriculture, grain crops, fertility and motherly relationships. Which relates directly to the Persephone/Proserpina myth because this was her daughter. Interestingly the association with 7th house (business deals, partnerships, and marriage) I am leaning towards re-invigoration and rebirth especially with the gemini as the ruler of the seventh house and the myths itself that are centered on rebirth with loss. I wouldn't included the SN because its too far.

thanks all221
I agree with death/loss and new beginning
it's always a dramatic theme in my 7th house
thanks so much for the insight!
