CHIRON, THE WOUNDED HEALER

Chiron is a comet that was discovered in 1977.  It has an orbit that oscillates between Saturn and Uranus and actually crosses orbits. 

 

The energies of Chiron seek out enlightenment through the affirmation of its ability to heal wounds especially those of others.  They say that the internal wounds that may have been initiated from early life conditions such as self-worth and insufficiencies are carried forward into adult life and that they are extremely hard to overcome.  Through these internal struggles and the lessons that they teach, these individuals are able to help others often before they can help themselves.

 

As Chiron swings between the orbits of Saturn and Uranus, it can bring with it enlightenment and new avenues of expression by exploring competent and reliable information often learned through life’s experience.  There is a need to rise above the original wound although it could be very deep and require much work to find new directions or alternatives in order to move beyond the injury and rise above its lingering effects.

 

The sign and house position of Chiron show what area of life is involved and the character traits of the wound.  In many cases, this is thought of as a spiritual wound and it also shows where we have great healing potential that can help others who have experienced similar wounds in their lives. 

 

In order to heal ourselves, we have to face the issue and we will need to work tirelessly to overcome its effects on us. 

 

The first house positioning of Chiron is the most challenging, perhaps due to the personal nature of the wound.  In most cases, the healing powers that these individuals develop are very powerful.  Many with a challenged Chiron become doctors, psychologists, and healers using modern-day techniques, such as reiki and the teachings of spiritual healers from a mental perspective.

 

Chiron’s energies do not necessarily have to be overly negative, as hard work often produces great results.  As we learn to overcome deep-seated challenging conditions we gain internal strength and learn valuable lessons.  The house placement will often define where we have reoccurring difficulties and there is an urgency to repair these in order to move beyond the hurt.  We are able to heal ourselves but not without hard work and a disciplined approach.  Sometimes the healing comes in sporadic moments of enlightenment or happens when we are not expecting it.  A rational and honest approach will often work quite well.

 

On some level, Chiron’s placement in our chart by sign and house position is indicative of the ability to heal humankind.  This is not to say that it will be on a grand scale, although possible, but we can certainly help others.  We will need to heal ourselves first before we can do our work helping others. 

 

This injury is often a big part of our life’s story and many individuals will hold on to this for several years.  Some will be unable to integrate the healing requirements due to self-doubt and preconceived notions.  If we recognize that we are the ones holding ourselves back, we can make great strides in overcoming this issue and be able to let go in order to heal.
