Aspects
Chiron Square Hygiea
The hurt around health and the wish to be whole keep grinding against each other, keeping an old wound close to the surface. It can show as a chronic condition that will not fully resolve, a fraught history with the body, or a recurring sense that wellness is just out of reach. This square will not let the wound stay buried, it pushes you to do something with it. The way through is active: tend the hurt honestly rather than working around it, get real support and information, and let what you learn from your own struggle become compassion and skill for others, rather than a strain you carry alone.
Lean in — Tend the health wound honestly and get real support for it.
Watch for — Carry the strain alone, working around it on a loop.
