Ceres in Capricorn

Ceres in Capricorn takes their responsibilities very seriously and will go out of their way to make sure that others close to them are being taken care of. They want to provide for others and make sure their material needs are being met as a way to nurture. They want to be able to nurture by teaching lessons and explaining the way things should be done to others. They want to be loyal and dedicated to the ones that they love, and they feel this is the best way to be nurturing. However, they may struggle a bit with warmth and being empathetic towards those close to them. Some people around them might need a gentler touch if they want to connect on a more emotional level. The Ceres Capricorn is looking for respect more than they are to be cared for. This is a problem because they can come off a bit cold when others are trying to get them more involved. The Ceres Capricorn is a hard worker and that will translate well to all areas of their life.
