Asteroids: Pallas Athena
built 212 days ago
Perhaps the easiest way to understand the four major asteroids is by the unique relationship patterns that they codify. Ceres is the Great Mother asteroid, and is correlated to the parent-child relationship. She is the caretaker, nurturer, and ruler of major life cycles including life and death. Pallas is associated with the father-daughter relationship, and in a broader sense symbolizes the favorite child who through her intelligence and wisdom supports the corporate and political state. In the simplest terms, Ceres is the mother and Pallas is the daughter.
Although there are many asteroids and/or centaurs that can be used in astrology, only a certain few are commonly used. They are Chiron, Ceres, Juno, Pallas Athena and Vesta. The best known of these is Chiron that is often used on its own without the others. There is much interest in Chiron's attributes astrologically and there are a few websites dedicated to its study.
Three other asteroids (2 Pallas, 3 Juno, and 4 Vesta) were discovered over the next few years, with Vesta found in 1807. After eight more years of fruitless searches, most astronomers assumed that there were no more and abandoned any further searches.
