A Look into Chiron's Journey and His Presence in Your Life

​      Oh, hello, hello, my kindred spirits. How are you? There has been some pretty intense energy that, if you haven’t noticed, has seemed to elevate with each astrological event these last few years. I have certainly felt an increase in intensity, and with my passion for finding patterns and my obsessive pull to astrology and the metaphysical arts, the evidence is truly amazing. We of course, as humans incarnated here on Earth, no matter your incarnated background.
The one thing I normally get nuts about is the generalization of things, in medicine, in massage, in astrology. Because it is all interconnected! And while that interconnection can get overwhelming in the details of its infinite energy, I feel there are too many instances where we over compartmentalize. The forever sticky web with no beginning and no end, and as the dichotomies of life follow, the beginning and the ends. So much to wrap our left brain around in a world of indoctrination and programming meant to keep people in a state of fear and separated from Source, aka, the patriarch.

     I imagine we must have had an overly matriarchal society at one point in order for us to be in the absolute extremes we are in now, but as the patriarch is fallen apart, and quite resistant in its efforts, there of course has been an immense disservice to woman, the Goddesses of this world. The pure beings of womb power and pussy portals. In the anger of maltreatment though, there was an extreme move in the feminist movement that stinks with aura of patriarchal perfume. But let’s not forget the men that have been at a disservice as well. Indoctrinated and programmed in a different sense. And women have played a part in that as well. I mean think of our childhood rhymes, “Boys go to Jupiter to get more stupider, and girls go to Mars to become rock stars.” This and whatever experiences we have gone through life. The list of oppression and repression on both sides is extensive, and one might find themselves completely biased as he or she dives deep into their own culture and experience.
     
     You might have thought I have digressed as this piece of oral and written expression is based on Chiron turning retrograde today, but as I mentioned before, it is all interconnected and what I am channeling most, and my fingers find their way across my keyboard. We are in a time where I believe at the core of my being that our movement is dying from the patriarch and moving into a time with the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine are meant to balance each other out. The yin and the yang, we each have our own feminine and masculine sides, and many of us have lived with one side overriding the other. The imbalance has slowly drained our energy, or perhaps, quickly drained, depending on you expressed a side of you that you have depended on to survive.
​   
     Which leads back to Chiron, the wounded healer, a Shaman in his own right, balancing his life as he lived his life fused as a horse and human, representing our ability to live according to our animalistic side and our human side. I sympathize fully with Chiron, as he sits in my first house of Taurus, conjunct Sedna and Lust. The fusion of these energies is quite strong in my experiences and significant people in my life with strong Chiron themes. Chiron has certainly impaled his energy throughout my awakenings. And where the balance tipped of attaining to be all spiritual, I have also screamed and shouted in moments that I certainly came here to fucking human as well. A story of spiritual imposter syndrome.  Another story for another time.
Chiron in Aries, the wound of the self, of aggression, assertion, beginnings, impulses, initiation, willpower, of the war we create within ourselves. Where Chiron and Aries fall in your chart along with any aspects to him will give the base of the theme you are meant to play out in your life. In the course of your life, you will see these themes and be able to work with them by the evolving charts such as your progressions, solar arc or solar returns, the events and people that come into your life. Somewhere, there is Chiron pushing you along to evolve in a balance of being human and a spiritual being.

     ​I cast Chiron’s chart for the area I live in now, Lehigh Acres, to set the angles for how Chiron will work in this area. This a practice I work with so that I may be able to interpret how Chiron will send his energy this way, but also, I place this chart against my own, boiling it down to my individual expression and how I can utilize the energies of the Chiron in my life until he stations direct on December 29, 2024.
     
     Chiron stations retrograde today at 23 degrees and 32 minutes of Aries. The Sabian Symbol, “An open window and net curtain blowing into a cornucopia.” James Burgess’s website explains this degree as “allowing higher energies and impress and inspire us.” The cycle of push, push back, and adjust. In my mind, I see this as learning, questioning, and integration, aka processing. I love Sabian Symbols and the depth of detail in the degrees of these planets. They offer such an intense depth into interpreting the energy and I have experienced that the Sabian Symbols manifest quite obviously in my life. We are in such a state of go-go-go in this Western World, that there of many of us that jump from one subject to the next without processing the experience, without celebrating the experience. I do believe that the magic of rituals throughout history is the permission rituals allow for us to process and integrate these experiences in our everyday lives. I am a person quite faulty with processing which, of course, has led me to quite the emotional predicament these days! Transformation Baby!

     Chiron just happens to be sitting in the 8th house in the chart I cast, a house of transformation through others, and he plays this game in collaboration with the North Node, their work continuing to bring the necessary energy forward for us to heal those wounds holding us back. With or without the angles of the Ascendant or Midheaven, this energy beams with collective endings and beginnings, and that is reiterated with the anorectic degrees of Mercury at 29 degrees in Leo, who is also in a preshadow period before stationing retrograde next week on the 5th of August,  quincunx the Moon conjunct Neptune retrograde at 29 degrees in Pisces and their sextile to the pure energy of Pluto retrograde at 0 degrees in Aquarius.
      This, my kindred spirits, is a Yod, the finger of God. Quincunxes have an energy of not being a bit uncomfortable, different signs, different modalities, and it radiates with adjustment. It is here we see the theme of processing begin its repetition. Leo wants to shine like the bright star it is, and Mercury in Leo is about shining communication, shapeshifting, staying in a spot of thinking the brightest that it can make itself known. Pisces, out of habit, retreats, needs its alone time to recuperate from all the empathic energy it is soaking in from all dimensions, all planes, and all times. The Moon, representing our bodies, our emotional reaction, our maternal lineage and how we nurture ourselves, is sleeping in bed with Neptune, the boundaries down, as Pisces will tend to sacrifice itself for unconditional love, at its highest octave. And Pluto, oh, Pluto, a planet of power, sure to use its power however is necessary to purge that which no longer serves us, that which needs to erupt from the surface, our perhaps, from anywhere in the multiverse, as Aquarius represents the collective, people coming together, new innovations, and expressing individuality in the name of the collective. Aquarius, the polar opposite of Leo is like, “Hey, yep, I am here to shock the shit out of you so that you can learn to stand out in your individuality while serving that which is best for the people. Dreams and wishes are absolutely possible!”
  
      See the pattern of discomfort here? To dive even deeper, let’s not forget the Sabian Symbols for these planets. Leo at 29 degrees states, “An unsealed letter. Secrets can only be secrets for a while,” I am always amazed at the accuracy of these degrees and to what the collective is experiencing as well. Mercury honing the energy to release these secrets, no matter how uncomfortable it may be, the quincunx to Pluto beaming that deep seated Soul feeling of serving humanity. Pisces at 29 degrees states, “The Great Stone Face. Becoming our own ideal.” Back to thoughts are things, right? Where how we feel, how we love, how we intuit, and then mitigate that to your thoughts to manifest into the physical form, while also being the cycle of how we mitigate our thoughts, those of our own, and the collective, to manifest in our bodies. Remember, Neptune is retrograde, infusing us with remembering from deep within our Souls, and our lives across the multiverse, our dreams and wishes, unconditional love, and with the culmination of Piscean energy, we are a crisis point of endings and beginnings, the intense moment of all that we have experienced in the last 14 years and how we can serve from those experiences to ourselves and the collective.  Pluto, at 0 degrees Aquarius, the beautiful Sabian Symbol stating, “An old adobe mission, which infiltrates the idea of building a community around you as a foundation of survival for those around us and for times to come.” Pluto sextile the Moon and Neptune offers the gift of this uncomfortable zone of life we are in. We are being pushed to remember how we came here to be as humans.
  
        Will we repeat the devastation we have heard of different civilizations throughout history? The power-hungry mongrels that have created chaos and destruction intentionally, or will we come together and realize our interdependence and the necessity for aligning with higher frequencies? We have a choice here with the water involved, we can listen to our intuition, to that which we consider Source and go with the flow of what we know beyond our physical senses, surrender, or we can resist. The choice is in the ease of how we respond to the energy. That old adage of “what you resist persists.”  I think we all know what the energy of resistance feels like and it’s a bitch and a half.

     Saturn is retrograde in Pisces, its nonsense energy adding to the intensity of working towards the mission or missions in life you came here to do. Saturn is also conjunct Nessus, who is a centaur asteroid, most often known to be considered an abuser, but also, an asteroid that has an energy of paternal lineage that can be brought to light of healing the dysfunctional masculine qualities in our lives. This pair quincunxes Venus and Vesta in Leo, who as a pair, are asking us to step into self-love and not be afraid to shine from the pilot light within you. This energy engages us again to step out of our comfort zone and really work with spiritual discipline, dream work, our dreams and desires, that are clearly in our lives for a reason. It is a steamy energy, the distillation of this steam inviting breath work, meditation, modalities of uniting your desires with the ambition and discipline Saturn hones, and yes, it is quite the emotional journey as issues of self-doubt, and how you communicate with yourself rise to the heavens and sink deep in the depths of the ocean.

      Pluto is a grand minor trine with Uranus at 26 degrees in Taurus, a waning conjunction to Mars in Gemini, our planet of action and the ruler of Aries, and Mars, an applying conjunction to Jupiter in Gemini. Jupiter rules expansion, no matter which end of the spectrum. In Gemini, you may be more social and interested in learning new things, but you may also want to learn so much that you are in a state of paralysis due to the overwhelm. Gemini wants to be everywhere at once.  The energy of earth-shaking epiphanies fuses with the ideals of community building, philosophies, and nerve-oriented energy. Electricity traveling through your body and your ability to adapt. Have you noticed how easily overwhelming things can get, fraying your nerves, especially since Jupiter moved into Gemini on May 25th?  Grand minor trines are gifts and ease within your life. The Uranus-Mars-Jupiter stellium sextiles the Moon and Neptune, the loop of this relationship giving ease into your spirit and body adapting to the necessary purging and downloads coming in. For those of you who may have had the habit of disassociating your emotions from your thoughts, this may seem like an inconvenience when you are crying at the drop of a pin, or perhaps, feeling your nerves fray more than usual. It is all in your highest good and the Universe working for you.

      Uranus, Mars, and Jupiter are also part of second grand minor trine, as they sextiles the Sun in Leo at 4 degrees in a trine back to the Moon and Neptune. The Sabian Symbol for 4 degrees states, “Rock formations at the edge of precipice. Seeing things in a larger context.” This degree representing the dichotomy of micro and macro-cosmos, we are but a grain of sand in the scheme of the Universe, but also, our importance as that grain of sand and our stance next to every single grain of sands is what builds a beach, builds the Earth upon which we arise from, and are returned too. There is no disassociation either Baby, the interconnectedness of you with the Universe are being invited to intensely feel these concepts and emotions on a heart level.

       That which has not been resolved in the past, those moments when you felt your heart break or being stabbed, are guiding you compassionately to release those wounds and open your heart. It is your heart that magnifies your presence, your manifestation, and when we close our hearts, we close ourselves off what we truly deserve and wish to manifest. The Sun is also opposite Pluto, offering that balance of being who you are meant to be, how you are meant to stand in your power through this stage of transformation.

      Those of you interested in how these events affect you directly, you can cast your natal chart on astro.com and cast a chart for Chiron stationing retrograde. He stationed retrograde today, July 25th, 2024, at 1:59 pm UTC. Pull down a synastry chart and you will see exactly what and where these themes are being brought into your life to work with. If you are not interested in a casting a synastry chart, you can just see where the transits lie on your natal, progressed, and even deeper, your solar arc or solar return.  Interested in having your chart read and how upcoming transits will affect you, email me here at [email protected] and let’s set up an online reading through Zoom.
​     I have appointments starting at an hour or longer, depending on what information you are interested in and would like to address, all recorded for you to listen to anytime, along with a 25–30-page E-book with copies of the charts I interpret, a synopsis of each of those charts, transits to be aware of, and a reference guide. I very much work on teaching you about how your chart works for you. I also have package sessions that umbrella your journey of self-awareness and guiding you through these activations, an intuitive astrological coaching service. I look forward to working with you! May your experiences respond to your highest good and hold the presence in knowing the Universe is working for you! Namaste, my kindred spirits. I am sending the highest vibe of love!
