Aspects
Chiron Opposition Moon
Moon opposite Chiron sets your need for security against the old wound, so the hurt around feeling safe and nurtured tends to surface through close relationships, who reflect it back. You may seek in others the holding you ache for. The gift is the awareness that comes from seeing the wound mirrored. The shadow is needing others to heal a hurt only you can tend, or withdrawing to avoid it. The growth is meeting closeness as a whole, self-nurturing person. At your best your relationships become where the old emotional wound is finally held.
Lean in — Tend your own emotional wound rather than handing it to others.
Watch for — Demand that closeness fix an ache only you can heal.
