⚷ Chiron

Chiron is the wounded healer — the core wound where pain becomes wisdom, and the place you can guide others precisely because it once hurt. A small body orbiting between Saturn and Uranus, discovered in 1977; its orbit is eccentric, so it moves through some signs in a couple of years and others in eight.

In transits

Transiting Chiron takes about 50.7 years to circle the chart, so a contact from it is rare and slow. It presses on the natal point until the sore spot in that area is admitted rather than worked around — the reward is being able to speak to it, in yourself and for other people.
