As Ceres transits Taurus and forms a sextile with Mercury in Cancer in your composite chart, the nurturing qualities of Ceres cozy up to the communicative prowess of Mercury, auguring a period where the soil of your relationship could turn wonderfully fertile. Yes, just like adding just the right amount of water to your succulents-though hopefully with fewer casualties along the way.

During this transit, the two of you might find a renewed sense of comfort and ease in sharing thoughts and ideas with one another. Ceres, nurturing as ever and now frolicking through sturdy Taurus, encourages a steady approach to how you care for each other's ideas and communicative needs. It's a perfect time to deepen your understanding of each other's viewpoints. Think less debate club, more passing a talking stick (or spoon, if you're mid-breakfast).

Communication can become particularly nurturing, almost like your words have been dipped in a comforting cup of hot cocoa. Mercury in Cancer already gives your relationship's communication style a compassionate and protective quality, so with Ceres' influence, you're looking at some prime time soul-food conversations. It's probably a good idea to engage in discussions that not only stimulate the mind but also nourish the emotional bonds.

And let's not forget the Taurus touch! The penchant for enjoying the sensual-like savouring a gourmet meal or lounging on a plush sofa-might seep into your conversation topics. Why not plan some dinners where you not only eat but also chat about what's deeply nurturing to both of you?

This is an astrological green light to blend Ceres' nurturing qualities with your already emotionally charged communication. So, throw in a dash of Taurus' need for comfort and you get an astrological recipe for a heartfelt dialogue banquet. Just don't forget to metaphorically bring the desserts - Taurus would never forgive that oversight.
