Aspects
Chiron Opposition Juno
The wound around commitment tends to come at you through the people you partner with. You may draw in those who need healing in love, step into the role of the one who mends the bond, or find that relationships re-open the old ache of betrayal or inequality. There can be a back-and-forth of who is wounded and who heals. The work is to keep the wound from running the dynamic: notice when you over-give to a partner to soothe your own hurt, let yourself be cared for too, and bring the bond into balance, so the relationship heals both of you rather than restaging the original injury.
Lean in — Let a partner heal you too, not only the reverse.
Watch for — Over-give to a partner to numb your own relationship wound.
