The Wounded Healer, Part 2 Since the previous Chiron article, have you had any insights associated with your wound? Are you intrigued by the idea of gaining awareness of your deeper wound when you're triggered by something. How when somebody pokes at a sore spot, it can be an opportunity for you to engage in some healing. Sometimes you shrug it off and ignore it. Sometimes you lean into it, despite the wound being sore. How are you feeling about it?
Let's look at other things that contribute to how Chiron will show up for. Its elliptical orbit and the Saturn and Uranus symbolism are factors. Also, take into account what Chiron is like related to other placements and aspects happening in our sky.
The Saturn-Uranus Polarization
Saturn is the last visible planet from earth. Uranus is further out, beyond visibility. Therefore, Chiron brings speculation around what's visible to you (and what's currently invisible). Considering this on a personal level, you can look at your own self-development and levels of awareness. Are you bringing things to light? Are you bringing to consciousness? What can you sense isn't within your awareness?
With the elliptical orbit occurring between Saturn and Uranus, you'll glean meaning from the influence these planets have on Chiron. The yin/yang of a Saturn/Uranus balance will be expressed due to the influence of this orbit. Chiron's perihelion orbit occurs when it's closest to earth and inside the orbit of Saturn. Chiron's aphelion orbit occurs when it's closest to Uranus (just outside of Uranus' orbit).
Saturn brings more of the karmic lessons, reminiscent of the practical recourse that society imposes with structures and consequences. Whereas the energy surrounding Uranus feels more elusive in comparison. It's eclectic, and you might not pinpoint the Uranian influence as concisely. It allows for more question marks. It encourages being okay with the unknown. To be okay that you're not going to have a hard press answer at the exact moment you want it. Or maybe the answer is there, but it's not fully making sense. Uranian messages don't play out as linearly as Saturnian messages.
Maybe Chiron and Saturn in Aries will be just what I need. Double Aries here so much appreciate the insights of this one! Focus and healing sound really good right now for the “I Am” energy.
Yes, Avalon - I feel like Saturn and Chiron in Aries is such an intriguing combo! Not for the faint of heart, but lots of power there. With some Neptune buffering. And I didn't highlight in this discussion, but Venus is there in Aries too! So, grant yourself some love and empathy for your healing process!
ooh Tanya - Yes, abandonment can be quite the tender wound. Your Chiron/Saturn conjunction may pack a punch, but I suspect the creativity that can come through would be so deeply informed by that tenderness.

Can anyone say abandonment issues? It’s a toughie that I wrestle with frequently

That’s what I need to focus on more often. It definitely helps.
Curious to see how this might shift with you now that Saturn will be moving into Aries!
