Okay, so today I messed around with “Chiron Aquarius.” Honestly, I didn’t even know what it really was going in, just saw the name and thought it sounded cool. Sounded like some kind of futuristic water filter or something.
First, I tried to figure out what it even meant. I Googled it, obviously. Turns out, it’s an astrology thing! Chiron is an asteroid, and Aquarius is, well, a zodiac sign. Apparently, it’s about healing and wounds related to being unique or feeling like an outsider. Okay, interesting…
So, I decided I’d see if any of this resonated with me. I mean, who doesn’t feel like a weirdo sometimes, right?
- I started by looking up my own birth chart. Found a free site online, punched in my birth date and time (which I had to text my mom to double-check, of course).
- Then, I scrolled through all this astro-jargon until I found where Chiron was in my chart.
- I found some basic info, and, that it describes the “wounded healer”.
Next, I tried to make it practical. I didn’t just want to read about it, I wanted to, like, do something with it.
Then, I spent some time, maybe 20 minutes, just free-writing. I wrote about times I’ve felt different, or like I didn’t belong. It was kinda cringey at first, like reading old diary entries. But after a while, I actually started to see some patterns. Ways I hold myself back, or assume people won’t understand me. Stuff like that.
Finally, I decided to do something small, something to push myself outside my comfort zone. I just put out something that related to myself, even though it kinda scared me at first. I didn’t expect much.
So yeah, that was my “Chiron Aquarius” experiment. Maybe it’s all bogus, maybe there’s something to it. Either way, it got me thinking, and that’s always a good thing, right?
