Nereus is the son of Pontus and Gaea. Often he is thought of as the old man of the sea. He is the father of almost all the famous water nymphs, or Nereids, of Greek mythology. Three of the most popular being Thetis - mother of Achilles, Amphitrite - the sea wife of Poseidon, and Nerites - the most notable male nymph. He is often referred to in myth as the sea king who was honest and fair but over time he was replaced with his own grandson Triton. IN MY OPINION Nereus in your chart can indicate a) where your children outshine you, b) where you are seen as fair, and/or c) where are you are replaced by someone younger.
i encourage you to look into the aspects of nereus along with the sign, degree, and house placement. for the more advanced astrologers, take a look at the persona chart of nereus AND/OR add the other characters involved to see how they support or impede nereus!
OTHER RELATED ASTEROIDS: amphitrite (29), thetis (17), and gaea (1184)!
