Aspects
Chiron Conjunction Sun
Sun conjunct Chiron places the old wound right at the center of your identity, so the hurt can feel like it is simply who you are, often tied to the father or to early shame about existing. The self and the wound are inseparable. The gift is that, once faced, your very being becomes a source of healing for others who carry the same hurt. The shadow is an identity organized around the injury. The growth is becoming yourself through the wound rather than around it. At your best you are living proof that a wounded person can still shine and heal.
Lean in — Build your identity through the wound, not around avoiding it.
Watch for — Treat the old hurt as the whole of who you are.
