Being with him gave me a sense of infinite provision, emotional abundance, and completeness. All kinds of emotional issues seemed to get "resolved" when we were together.

This conjunction is in early Gemini and part of it was, not having to say anything to be understood. We had Mercury trine Mercury as well...both aspects were fortunate and provided like a superhighway of clear understanding.

The flip side was, I grew too dependent on him to provide those good feelings all the time. You know, like my constant diet (Ceres) was Jupiter...that's like having cake and ice cream for every meal right? But I was addicted to it.

That's all I have to say for now, hoping others (Hi meissieri, thank you for joining me here ) will have experiences to share.

Lovely worded. Hadn't really thought of that, becoming dependent on Jupiter, but it makes sense how you put it. That Mercury-Mercury trine is so nice - even more ruling your Ceres.

My close guy friend as a teenager had his Sun-Jupiter conjunction on my Ceres exact. (My Ceres at 19 Gemini, his Sun as well and his Jupiter at 18 Gem)

I wanted to take care of him all the time. Like when someone touches my Moon, I enjoyed being the one who'd comfort him, whom he'd come to for help (he told me all of his problems, and they were bad). We talked every day, lots of different conversations, laughing. He made me laugh so much I didn't think was even possible. Our conversations were just so smooth (though like you, we had positive Mercury aspects - his trine my Venus and Juno). And when we did fight, it would shake us up so badly I'm not sure we could've stayed mad at each other for long. I would be crying for half an hour straight and immediately reached back out to him. He told me he couldn't sleep and even when we made up, it'd affected him so much he'd still feel bad about it and have trouble sleeping.

It just never occurred to me I could lose him (Ceres again?). That our friendship would end. We spent so much time together it was like a nice, comfortable habit. Ironically when we did lose touch, I was so busy starting at a new school and got a boyfriend, so it didn't even affect me that much until a while later. We did briefly pick things back up but then I guess we just drifted apart.

That relationship sounds so sweet. I wonder if the part where he came to you with all of his problems is more like the sun-Ceres part of your conjunction? Sun conjunct Ceres being a kind of mothering aspect...at least, that's what I've heard. (And my Ceres is conjunct my son's sun...so I feel it, too.)

Your synastry with him looks beautiful.

More later if I think of anything else.

It was. At least for me. Could very well be, like it feels important for their whole vitality and morale. I would give him a lot of moral support and try to cheer him up.

What is it like between you and your son? That's a really nice aspect to have for a mother and child. I bet he can easily make you smile.

Maybe we can figure it out just by talking through it like the Gemini Ceresses we are

It was a very nice synastry. The Mars-Venus sextile DW was especially good. We still had to put in some effort, like the sextile itself, but it never felt like it.

What aspects does your Ceres make in your chart?

On top of my head, I have these:
Sun sextile Ceres
BML trine Ceres
Pluto biquintile Ceres
Ceres quintile Descendant

There's no other way to describe him!

Definitely! I think I'll post a pic on the meissieri thread when I get time, so you can see his cuteness. His ASC-Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in late Pisces gives him this mystical expression...as I read it, anyway.

We hug a lot, I give him piggy-back rides, we're literally attached at the hip much of the time.

I am his medicine. If he's hurt, all I have to do is pick him up and hold him until he feels better. Negative side of that is, he get immoderately upset if I'm busy with other things and can't run to his aid.

He is also my medicine, in a way. I always feel better after spending "quality time" with him, giving him my full attention.

How wide can you make the orbs, by the way? It's an asteroid, but one of the main ones, so maybe...
With a 4 degree orb, I also get Ceres square Mercury, and sextile my Vertex and Pallas.

It's weird because Ceres is a dwarf planet, but then wikipedia also calls it "the largest asteroid." Make up yer minds astronomers, astrology is counting on you!

I like the 4 degree orb, it's halfway between asteroid orb (2) and real planet orb (I use 6.) So I've got...with orbs in parentheses:

Ceres sextile Vesta (1)
Ceres sextile Saturn (1)
Ceres trine Mercury (4)

And I also have Ceres opposing Venus if you gimme 5 degrees. Maybe not a serious problem, but it does highlight the way in which I sometimes, when I was single, craved communication with men, while at the same time feeling strictly independent of them romantically.

Talking about Ceres with my friend Xiiro, I was pleasantly surprised to find that everyone I suspected having a major Ceres connection with, I did have a connection with. So most of my close friends have air Cereses for example. The brother I talk to most about emotional issues has his Ceres is conjunct my sun (4 degree orb.)

After mapping out my Ceres synastry with friends/family, I take it more Ceresly (pronounced "seriously" awesome pun, I know!)

ETA: Though...you probably meant something about romance, and I'm being sloppy about orbs.

With the Gemini: His Ceres in Taurus trined my Venus-Juno exact. Also exact square to my Nodes, and opposed my Karma and Dejanira. Talking about intense and karmic! I felt very at ease with him. We shared a lot of lyrics and poetry, probably part of the Venus connection.

1st serious relationship (Capricorn): Sadly not very good synastry.
- My Ceres on his Chiron.
- His Sag Ceres (around the same degrees as another ex!) square my Mercury.
- Mine was square his Pisces Jupiter and opposite his Sag Saturn.
- But it may have been sextile his Leo Moon. (Don't know his birth time.) It was also sextile his Karma.

2nd one... I'll check someday. Another Cappie. This guy verbally and emotionally abused me, and I don't like the memories tied to him, even though he was also my longest and most intimate relationship.

Ex I remained friends with and had a very friendly, mutual breakup with (still think of him fondly! He's a Sagittarius):
- His Venus in Libra trine my Ceres exact. Probably explains why we remained so friendly even after we broke up. It all just went smoothly.
- I may have had my Ceres sextile his Leo Moon as well. Don't know his birth time, so I'm not sure about the Moon's position. Noon chart makes it exact, though?
- If you give me a 5-degree orb, it opposes his Mercury, though.
- And his own Sag Ceres tightly square my Mercury.
- But it was also trine my Vertex.

Taurus major crush:
- My Ceres on his Part of Fortune
- His Ceres on my Mars in Virgo. He had these moments of super attentiveness that made me melt and blush like a teenager. (Mars ruling H7) I became more assertive around him quickly and tried hard to get his attention.
- Opposite his Saggitarius Saturn and square his Jupiter in Pisces (again, like the ex).

Scorpio major crush:
- My Ceres square his Pisces Moon. Ouch.
- But also on his Part of Fortune.
- Grand Trine with his North Node and Valentine.
- Opposite his Eros.
- Aaand... his Ceres was on my Jupiter! My MC as well. Got to think about this one and how it felt for me.
- So also opposite my Saturn and Neptune and square my Ascendant.

Another Scorpio crush:
- My Ceres square his Karma
- His Ceres fell on my Ascendant, squaring Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune.

Good friend from school (female, Aquarius):
- Her Moon falls just out of orb for a conjunction with my Ceres (13 Gemini). Grrr. *shakes fist* But maybe we can feel it by sign?
- Opposite her BML
- Her Ceres in Scorpio makes a Grand Trine with my Jupiter and Part of Fortune. Emotionally, I feel like I can tell her anything (and have), even though she has soooo much air that clashes with my chart. She's confided in me quite a few times, too, about some very intense problems she's gone through.
- It's also sextile my Uranus.
