Wow! Great episode. I began experiencing my Chiron in Aries return early March of 2023 while my husband was dying… I could relate to everything said in this. I look back often every month to remember where I was during that time (lonely, the only caregiver since Cov wiped out anyone willing to come into another home, solitary confinement of the dying etc) to see my progress not only external but internal. Transformation truly happens you just have to be patient and inch your way through it and out the other side and even then it will hit you hard again for you to learn something completely different but on the same level. It’s mind grating (yes I meant grating) for sure. I’m certainly grateful for every experience I had while struggling to give my husband his wish and my mind expansion of learning about what is true in life and in death during such a time. The anger was real, and rock hurling happened here as well. Thank you

Oh Maemae... that sounds like quite the Chirotic initiation you went through. I'm glad you made it to the other side. Thank you so much for sharing your experience, and for appreciating the episode. Much love to you!

Unbelievable the timing! And Katie was my energy healing teacher. So appreciate this. 🩷 A complete answer from Spirit. I’m in my Chiron return as we speak, 20 degrees Aries, and I only discovered it days before this last eclipse. I’m in a complete dissolve in my business and the gooeyness of self/Self. I feel so held and guided while also looking over my shoulder like, whaaat??? And when will the time to move forward again come. I’ll be reaching out for a reading if you’re still doing them. So grateful for this! 🎯

So great, Emily and Katie. Being in your presence through this podcast episode was a nourishing experience in itself. As I've been in the depths of breastfeeding my daughter over the last two months, I have been particularly captivated by her go-get-it-ness with eating. People often say babies are sweet and, sure, they are, but the primal and assertive way she goes for what she needs and wants is something else. Loved how Katie talked about the gaping hole of a baby's mouth - the shrieking - I truly see my daughter's gummy mouth as a little powerhouse. Also, your discussion about a lack of initiations and the grief of that, and "mature yang/yin" resonated with me; your naming it was a solace of sorts. Thank you both.

Thank you so much for your sweet appreciation, Tiffany! So happy it felt nourishing. I love your rumination on your baby's powerhouse mouth. :)

I too am in my Chiron return. Aires 17 degrees 12th house. I too, lost my husband. August 2022 while my progressed moon entered the 8th house. Astrology has been truly the only place I’ve found understanding..of his life, our love , his sorrow, his young & tragic death, my sorrow. Learning about Chiron, and every mind expanding aspect of astrology, has given me hope towards healing. Hope. That’s a powerful feeling that isn’t given enough recognition until it’s gone. I hope the magic of the Universe is holding Jesse’s magic alive in it forever. I’m experiencing the glacier slow pace of healing happening within me and I hope I can ride it out because I’m still here..learning.

I'm so sorry, Janie - that is really rough. And, I'm so glad you found astrology - I agree that it's incredibly helpful and healing for navigating the WTF-ness of life. Much love to you in your Chirotic journey!
