Aspects
Chiron Opposition Neptune
Neptune opposite Chiron sets your spiritual longing against an old wound, so the hurt shows up through others and through ideals or saviors that disillusion, mirroring the ache back. The gift is seeing the wound reflected and finding a faith that can hold. The shadow is looking to others or to escape to heal a soul-ache only you can tend. The growth is meeting the spiritual through a whole self. At your best the very disillusionments that wounded you become where compassion is born.
Lean in — Own the wound you see reflected in others around spirit.
Watch for — Blame others for an ache that is yours to heal.
