Chiron Square Vesta

The hurt around devotion and the work of dedicating yourself keep grinding against each other, keeping an old wound close to the surface. It can show as shame around sexuality or the body, a history where your focus or your sacred self was wounded, or a recurring pattern of giving until it costs you everything. 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 instead of working around it, heal your relationship to the sacred and the sexual, and let the pain become compassion for others carrying the same wound, rather than a groove you keep falling into.
