We are entering a period when unresolved issues from the past want to be seen, felt and resolved. Have compassion for those around you who seem not to be doing okay. But most of all have compassion for yourself. The people who trigger you now offer you an insight into what still needs healing or integrating. And remember, you will trigger others just by being you. They also have healing to do. Good luck
AUGUST 3rd. CHIRON STATIONS RETROGRADE. THE WOUNDED HEALER TURNS INWARD.
Tomorrow, one of the most profound astrological shifts of the year begins as Chiron, the Wounded Healer, stations retrograde.
Unlike Mercury retrograde, which asks us to rethink our thoughts and communication, Chiron reaches far deeper. This is the part of the sky that reveals the places within us that were wounded long ago, the places we learned to protect, hide or harden in order to survive.
When Chiron stations, its energy becomes incredibly powerful. Astrologers call this a pivotal point because Chiron appears almost motionless before changing direction. It is in these still moments that the soul speaks the loudest.
Tomorrow begins a healing journey that continues until January 6th, 2027.
This is no ordinary retrograde.
For the first time since 1983, Chiron begins its retrograde in Ta**us, before returning to Aries in September to complete the final chapter of an eight year cycle that began back in 2018.
This marks one of the most significant phases of Chiron’s journey in decades.
CHIRON RETROGRADE IN TA**US.
August 3rd – September 17th.
Ta**us governs everything that helps us feel safe.
Our finances.
Our home.
Our body.
Our self worth.
Our relationship with the Earth.
Our ability to receive.
During the coming weeks, you may discover that what appears to be a practical problem is actually an ancient wound asking to be healed.
A delayed payment suddenly feels like you’ll never be secure.
A passing comment makes you question your value.
Your reflection in the mirror awakens years of criticism.
A relationship leaves you wondering if you are enough.
The event itself is rarely the true source of the pain. It simply opens the door to something much older that has been waiting to be healed.
Chiron asks us to notice where we have confused comfort with safety.
Where have you stayed because leaving felt frightening?
Where have you settled because believing in yourself felt too risky?
Where have you accepted less than you deserve because asking for more felt dangerous?
This is where the healing begins.
Chiron’s ancient symbol is a golden key.
It reminds us that every wound carries within it the key to our greatest wisdom.
The very place that once hurt you may become the place from which you guide, teach and heal others.
This is also a powerful time to examine your relationship with money, abundance and the material world. Ta**us teaches that true security is never found solely in what we own, but in the values we live by and the trust we cultivate within ourselves.
SEPTEMBER 17th – JANUARY 6th
CHIRON RETURNS TO ARIES.
Once Chiron steps back into Aries, the focus shifts.
No longer asking…
“Am I safe?”
But…
“Why have I abandoned myself?”
This final journey through Aries closes an eight year chapter that began in 2018.
It asks where you have silenced yourself…
given your power away…
suppressed healthy anger…
or stopped pursuing your dreams because of old disappointments.
Before Chiron finally leaves Aries forever in April 2027, it offers one last opportunity to reclaim your courage.
Not through force.
Through authenticity.
🌍 THE COLLECTIVE HEALING.
This retrograde reaches far beyond our personal lives.
Ta**us also governs the Earth itself.
The way we value our resources.
Money.
Food.
Nature.
Security.
The coming months ask humanity to reconsider what true abundance really means.
Healing no longer comes through accumulation alone.
It comes through generosity…
community…
sharing wisdom…
protecting the land beneath our feet…
and remembering that none of us truly thrives unless we all have roots.
🌙 AUGUST 3rd ALSO BRINGS…
The Moon joins Saturn in Aries, creating one of the most karmic alignments of the month.
Saturn is the great Lord of Karma.
The teacher who never forgets.
The keeper of divine timing.
When joined by the Moon, emotions mature.
The lessons of recent months begin making sense.
Many will feel a quiet weight lifting.
Long standing efforts may finally receive recognition.
Responsibilities begin easing.
Doors that refused to open may quietly unlock.
The Universe is balancing what has long been out of balance.
Not through luck…
Through earned wisdom.
💜 THROUGH THE EYES OF A MEDIUM.
Whenever Chiron stations, I observe old energetic patterns rising into the field.
Not to punish us.
Not because we are moving backwards.
But because the soul cannot heal what it refuses to acknowledge.
The emotions that arise over the coming months may not belong entirely to today.
They often belong to younger versions of ourselves who never had the opportunity to feel safe enough to heal.
Allow them to surface.
Witness them.
Honour them.
Then choose differently.
That is how karma changes.
That is how timelines shift.
That is how the wound becomes the medicine.
🕯️PRACTICAL WITCHCRAFT.
Tomorrow, place a small bowl of salt beside a piece of smoky quartz, rose quartz or green aventurine.
Light a white candle.
Hold Chiron’s golden key within your mind’s eye and ask:
“Show me the wound I am now ready to transform into wisdom.”
Write whatever arrives without judgement.
Do not rush to solve it.
Simply witness it.
Healing begins the moment truth is seen.
Chiron reminds us that the wound is never where your story ends. It is where your wisdom begins. The key has always been within you. Now the Universe is asking you to use it.
Blessed Be,
Justine 🧙💜
