The Sun begins to opposes Jupiter, Pluto, and Saturn. We’re stepping up into bigger positions of power, authority, and responsibility. Or, we’re navigating titanic forces that are pushing and pulling at our lives and the direction it is taking. Time for reformation.
Let’s not forget that the Sun’s still in Cancer. And while we’re beginning to wrap up Cancer Season this week, we’re still digging into themes around emotional connection, family, memories, and the past. Connection, especially the sort of close connect that comes from family or people who are like family is what anchors us in life.
We need a lot of softness and care right now. These are the demands of Cancer Season.
That said, we may also be feeling a deeper, reoccurring pain point today as Mars joins up with Chiron in Aries. Chiron can feel like scar tissue or a deep pain point, something that doesn’t feel fully healed or resolved and that feels tender.
Sometimes Chiron is referred to a wound that never heals, but it actually can heal or begin to heal when we step out of our personal story with our pain and see how it’s connected to a larger collective experience. And that when we heal our pain and suffering, we can inspire others to heal as well. (Read more about Chiron in On Chiron, Suffering, and Knots.)
I talked more about Chiron in my weekly astrology video, which you can watch here as well as on YouTube and IGTV or listen on Spotify.
