Cerberus is the child of Typhon and Echidna and the three headed (thought to represent the past, present, and future) watchdog of the Underworld. According to Hesiod, Cerberus has fifty heads, snakes growing on his back, and a serpent's tail (in Hesoid's version, Cerberus has the ability to turn people to stone with his gaze, similar to Medusa) - traditionally, Cerberus is depicted with three head and the body of a dog. He is thought to devour those who try to escape the Underworld and their punishments. He is meant to keep the living out; the only mythological character who is thought to have fooled him (in order to enter the Underworld) is Orpheus who charmed the beast with his music. Two other instances in which Cerberus appear are Hercules who brought Cerberus to the land of the living (after some biting (I believe it was Hercules who bite Cerberus, not the other way around lol) and chaining (the first ever leash and collar?)) and Sibyl of Cumae (an oracle of Apollo) who feed him a honey-cake. IN MY OPINION Cerberus in your chart can represent a) where you are all knowing or how well you can read others, b) where people fear you and thus can’t get a good enough look at you, c) where you are gluttonous, and d) your relationship with dogs.

i encourage you to look into the aspects of cerberus along with the sign, degree, and house placement. for the more advanced astrologers, take a look at the persona chart of cerberus AND/OR add the other characters involved to see how they support or impede cerberus!
