The Plutus sibling can be the golden child by being Ceres’ substitute husband her real husband has failed in some way or has left the home. Hades (Pluto is the Roman version of Hades) is the Greek god of the dead and the underworld. Pluto obeyed, but before letting her go he made her eat six pomegranate seeds, because those who have eaten the food of the dead could not return to the world of the living. The new cult and its priesthood were actively promoted by Rome's religious authorities as morally desirable for respectable Roman women, and may have partly subsumed the temple's older, native cult to Ceres, Liber and Libera; but the new rites seem to have functioned alongside the old, rather than replaced them. She became the queen of the underworld through her abduction by Hades, the god of the underworld. You cannot look at Ceres in isolation because she really comes in a trio with Pluto and Eris, both mythologically and in the story of her reclassification as a dwarf planet. Jupiter Conjunct Saturn (The Event?) November 17th 2019: Asteroid Persephone joins her husband, a conjunction to Pluto in Capricorn, the climax of her Underworld expression. The beautiful Persephone is very close with her mother, Demeter, so much so that they are essentially inseparable. November 17th 2019: Asteroid Persephone joins her husband, a conjunction to Pluto in Capricorn, the climax of her Underworld expression. As Persephone came to the death of her childhood- her own realization that a full life cannot be lived without embracing her shadow (and that in order to do so, she must leave her mother’s protective nest)- in that moment, Pluto arrived, and initiated her into the realm of Hades… a place that we are all supposed to be very, very afraid of. In this way she goes through the dark night of the soul and starts to re-member her shattered ego. So Ceres is not just sun kissed, golden fields of corn. Hade’s mother-in-law Ceres, has a son (Plutus) who is also an aspect of Hades himself! Renamed thus, the king of the underworld is distanced from his consort's violent abduction. When Ceres was discovered she was exactly, and I really mean exactly in alignment with fixed star Algol by 0 degrees 00’! [2] She enters Roman history as part of a Triadic cult alongside Ceres and Liber, in a temple established on the Aventine Hill around 493 BC. Proserpina's figure inspired many artistic compositions, eminently in sculpture (Bernini,[15] see The Rape of Proserpina (Bernini) ) in painting (D.G.Rossetti,[16] a fresco by Pomarancio, J.Heintz,[17] Rubens,[18] A. Dürer,[19] Dell'Abbate,[20] Parrish[21]) and in literature (Goethe's[22] Proserpina and Swinburne's Hymn to Proserpine and The Garden of Proserpine) The statue of the Rape of Prosepina by Pluto that stands in the Great Garden of Dresden, Germany is also referred to as "Time Ravages Beauty".

Proserpina (/proʊˈsɜːrpɪnə/ proh-SUR-pin-ə,[1] Latin: [proːˈsɛrpɪna]) or Proserpine (/proʊˈsɜːrpɪni, ˈprɒsərpaɪn/ proh-SUR-pin-ee, PROSS-ər-pyne[1]) is an ancient Roman goddess whose cult, myths and mysteries were combined from those of Libera an early Roman goddess of wine. Persephone ~ Greek Myth - The queen of infernal regions who was a daughter of Zeus and Demeter and the wife of Pluto. We’ll assume you’re ok with this, but you can opt-out if you wish. She was originally an Italic goddess; at some time during Rome's Regal or very early Republican eras, she was paired with Liber, also known as Liber Pater ('the free father'), Roman god of wine, male fertility, and a guardian of plebeian freedoms. Enna in Sicily was said to be where Proserpina was abducted by Pluto, who apparently flew out of the volcano, Mount Etna. So we get: Negative Ceres = Narcissism as defined by Wikipedia; “ Grandiosity, pride, egotism and a lack of empathy.”Negative Eris = Machiavellianism; “ Manipulation and exploitation of others, a cynical disregard for morality, and a focus on self-interest and deception”Negative Pluto = Psychopathy; “ Enduring antisocial behaviour, impulsivity, selfishness, callousness and remorselessness”. Pluto is the brother of Zeus and Poseidon and the ruler of the underworld, or the land of the dead. This is quite a quaint story, but by today’s standards, my grandad would have been considered a pedophile. The mourning that Ceres suffered at the loss of her daughter Persephone (or her own childhood/virginity) is mirrored in the infertile winter season. Darling Persephone is Ceres’ beloved daughter Kore, as she was known before Pluto ‘took’ her. (With Dis Pater is connected Proserpina (whose name is of Greek origin, being that goddess the Greeks call Persephone) who symbolises the wheat seed and whose mother looked for her after her disappearance...). Therefore there must be some esoteric connection between Medusa and Ceres. It requires a delicate approach to deconstruct the symbols of this myth, since it is difficult for many trauma survivors to handle the concepts of rape and kidnapping as they commonly appear in most versions of the story. I mean it’s bread right? In ancient Greece, sometimes when a couple wanted to marry, but the parents wouldn’t allow it, the suitor would ‘kidnap’ his beloved and they would spend the night out in the country somewhere. How it compares to some other names? To make things more complex, there is another Greek god named Plutus or Ploutos (the Greek word for wealth) who was actually the son of Demeter (Ceres). [3] The older and newer forms of her cult and rites, and their diverse associations, persisted well into the late Imperial era.
