In astrology, Chiron is a comet with an erratic orbit located between Uranus and Saturn. It represents our core wounds (those issues that seem to follow us for a lifetime) Chiron is named after a Greek healer, philosopher and teacher who, ironically, could not heal himself. Symbolized by a key in the chart, demonstrating the importance of unlocking this minor planet's major lessons.
Chiron represents our deepest, most tender inner wounds that are the most difficult for us to heal. These wounds are often created in childhood or wounds we carry from past lives or even develop later in adulthood. It is not easy nor is it something that heals quickly. Should we make the consistent effort and do succeed in healing this, we can reap the greatest rewards from it and go on to help others heal. Where Chiron falls in our astrology birth chart the sign, house and the aspects it forms to other planets in the Chart— highlights the area in which we feel vulnerable, weak or one that evokes feelings of low self-esteem but where we can turn around and find our true power to help others.
