Our Human Wound
Chiron in Aries

The most important message Chiron in Aries brings in March is a lesson about human vulnerability in this third dimension of physicality (Saturn), and human lack of control over life. As incarnated beings in the flesh, we took the cross of limitation. We are not spirits freely roaming around anywhere, we are attached to matter and endure its rules (Saturn). Saturn glyph ♄, is the soul (curved leg) bending over under the weight of the 'cross'. It's not surprising that the physical life brings pain, illness, decay, and death. Saturn was anciently associated with the Grim Reaper as well. However, suffering, since it is our response to the pain, is a choice.
Chiron square December Solar Eclipse
The first week of March, Chiron in Aries squares the December 25-26, 2019 Solar Eclipse at 4º 6' Capricorn.
As I wrote in February, 4º Capricorn is also the degree of the previous Saturn Pluto conjunction January 4, 1518. Among other important events, that year Hernan Cortes headed to Mexico, where he so easily conquered a whole civilization of more than 30 million people, in just a few months! How? Two important allies: making alliance with Aztecs' enemies, and unknowingly bringing with them smallpox. To ensure victory, he burned the expedition ships! There was no return, it was a “win or die” determination.
Just that event opened the portal to the conquest of a whole New Continent, redistributing the powers of the time, and reconfiguring the geopolitical map of the whole World. Of course, the evolution was not done overnight, but in a really Capricornian (Saturnian) way, with ambition, persistence, patience (overtime), and much cruel bloodshed.
At the cosmological level, Nicolau Copernicus, opened Humanity's vision into the cosmos, telling us that the Earth was not the center of the Universe, but the Sun. Then, the process of accepting our cosmic abandonment (Chiron wound) started. Are we not the most important piece in the puzzle? Are we are just a speck in there, almost invisible?
The December Solar Eclipse opened a portal over that long gone past to see through the long way we've walked until our present time. 500 years later, January 12, 2020, Saturn Pluto historical conjunction in Capricorn, not only has threaten a global war, but brought a global illness that threatens our very human existence, but has also the potential to redistribute power. Covid19 impacts the elderly population at a higher percentage, and it's sparing the children and youth who are not much affected by it. The Sign of Capricorn, Saturn and Pluto are associated with the time (Chronos) old age, and the karmic past.
As a New Era dawns, Humanity has to leave behind (Capricorn South Node of the Moon) its old systems, socio-political structures, traditional institutions and obsolete conditionings and conventions. Because Pluto is associated with transmutation and regeneration, its energy may very well play a role in the reincarnation of very old and experienced souls that are being born since 2008 when this planet entered Capricorn. Having lived through the Ages, they bring with them the karmic accumulation of wisdom issued of their learned lessons. Look closer at these young children, they are teaching the adults!
In her book, The Astrology of the Black Moon, A Guide to Healing the Shadow Side, Laura Walker states that this conjunction
"Often poses a lifetime of painful experiences. This aspect almost demands that we sacrifice ourselves for others, leading us to walk through life with a deep wound that restricts our personal growth." Death thoughts invade our psyche, awakening "the desire for release from worldly problems."
She continues "we feel as if we have been wounded to the core. These are some of the most difficult transits. Deep sadness and depression are reported. [...] transits involving the Black Moon intensify feelings of pain that lead to not wanting to continue with life. Self-imposed sacrifices are made or activities are eliminated from outside forces. These transits, however, are designed to heal a wound (often from early childhood) and heal the primary fear. Circumstances come into place to push us to come to terms with our shadow side."
Furthermore, she associates Lilith in Aries with the shadow of success. "The Black Moon in Aries manifests in the intense quest to be valued and feel worthy."
As a collective, all the wounds we have inflicted upon ourselves, our human darkest crimes against our spiritual identity are in our face now. The challenge is to heal and Chiron in Aries is the key.
At a personal level, the events develop quickly with a cardinal square, which implies radical changes that will affect your future, your emotional security, comfort, thriving, and survival. My February's Chiron article addresses extensively the personal themes of Lilith and Chiron present conjunction.
Mars in Capricorn, ruler of Chiron in Aries
Next New Moon March 23 meets Chiron in Aries and squares the Nodes of the Moon, making Humanity's wound sore. Chiron pokes emotions with his feelings of vulnerability and inadequacy, so we'll need to pamper ourselves a bit to feel better. The Moon in Aries adds a dose of assertiveness to your mood, you get things going, have the energy to get things done and determination to make decisions.
Chiron square the Cancer Capricorn Nodal Axis
Humanity, as a species, is at a crossroads. During this period, we understand how past actions (karma) weighs on our fragility. We are learning from the past mistakes and facing the challenge of our survival understanding the vulnerability of our inherent identity. The psychic shadows are now in the open for us to reckon with, and we look for refuge and protection for our human condition.
Chiron square the Cancer Capricorn Nodal Axis calls out for examination of and reflection on the past actions, social conventions, traditions, socio political structures, conditionings, established systems of operation, institutional organizations (Capricorn). The review shows that they have thwarted the purpose of our life. Looking for power, prestige, domination, material possessions, and social status (Capricorn) has made us cold, alienated and cruel, deeply wounding our emotional nature (Cancer), that requires affection, nurturance, comfort, protection, safety, and the tender life support that only family and human contact can provide.
The experiences that we perceive as negative, and sometimes catastrophic, are wake up calls and shakers that attempt to move us into balance and harmony with the Source of Life.
