Taurus Rising

I’ve been working on other projects, so I haven’t had a lot of time to work on astrology or dream-related projects.  With that said, I haven’t been keeping with what’s going on in the sky.  Today, I decided to take a peek at my birth chart and transits on astro.com and noticed Chiron squaring Chiron.

Chiron has always been a fascinating planet (asteroid?) to me.  It’s also known as the “wounded healer”.  In Greek mythology, Chiron was a healer who could teach others to heal – but could not heal himself.

Along with Taurus rising, I also have Chiron rising in my chart.  The 1st house is the “house of self”.  First appearances.  First impressions.  The mask/costume that people see upon their first meeting with you.  Saying that, it makes me wonder if I look like a giant bruise to others.  :)  (It’s funny to mention, that my skin really does bruise easily!).

Squares make rather difficult aspects.  But, if you know it’s there, then there’s the advantage of knowing the areas where you may need to work harder.

Chiron is transiting at the edge of my 10th house.  The 10th house is associated with public image, reputation, and career goals.

I’ve been having conflicting issues regarding how I would like to be perceived as well as conflicts in career goals.  This is something that has resurfaced in the last few weeks, so will be interesting to see how things will become as the Chiron square gets tighter.

Where is Chiron transiting in your chart?  Where do you have it natally?
