Chiron in Virgo

With Chiron in Virgo, the tender place is around imperfection, the body, health, and the fear of not being good enough. There may have been early criticism, illness, or a sense that you had to earn love by being useful and flawless, so a harsh inner critic took root. The wound does not fully heal, but facing it makes you a genuine healer who helps others toward self-acceptance and wholeness. The gift is compassion for the imperfect, learned the hard way on yourself. The work is offering yourself the mercy you give everyone else. At your best you help others stop waiting to be perfect before they are worthy.

Lean inOffer yourself the mercy you so easily give to others.

Watch forBelieve you must be flawless before you are allowed to rest.
