Chiron and the New Moon in Libra

“Chiron’s position in the natal chart represents the place where we experience fragmentation or a wound. However, it also represents our greatest chance to overcome it and become increasingly whole.” Eva Stangenberg

Chiron, the king of the centaurs, whose incurable wound transformed him into a healer, is a strong influence in Tuesday’s New Moon and the upcoming lunar cycle. At the time of the New Moon, 8:25 AM EDT on 10/20, Chiron  in Aries will be opposing the Sun and Moon in Libra and forming a square to Jupiter.

When Chiron is a strong influence in the sky, it indicates the evolutionary  journey of wounding and healing is with us.  If challenges arise now,  it is a wise to consider them an  opportunity to respond in a new way, a way that represents a step on  journey towards increased inner wholeness.

One of the Sabian symbols for this time is,”a person alone in deep gloom. Unnoticed, angels are coming to her aid.”
