Right now, the US Chiron return is exact.
This means that the wounded healer has returned to where he was when the US came into being, representing the core wound of the nation (happens roughly every 50 years).
As with all Chiron returns, we return to the place that hurts the most, the thing that can’t be resolved or sorted out with all of our usual measures.
We need to surrender, open and often let go of a LOT in order to gain a deeper, more rooted sense of who we really are and what we came here for.
Chiron shows us the specific ancestral pain we came to transmute.
He’s the eye of the needle of our spiritual awakening, liberation and psychological integration.
The US has its Chiron in Aries in the 4th house….of roots, ancestors, home and mother.
All that has been tucked down into unconscious, the root pain of this culture, has been revealed.
The energetics of this election goes far deeper than armchair psychology, but rather straight to the heart of a festering wound in the collective psyche of that which influences most of the Western world.
And, we are all feeling it.
I once read, and I forget where, that who is elected is often a reflection of the unconscious of a country, and this has always rung true for me.
A Chiron return, speaking from the middle my own, can be a time of reckoning or spiritual liberation.
It’s the time we have to confront the reality of our lives and decide what we will do with this pain point…suffer or liberate ourselves.
We have to be willing to look at what we have been disowning, whether our shadows or our true, rooted, loving power.
The alchemy of Chiron is through the nature of the opposite energy.
This means that the ultimate alchemy of this placement, the pain at the very roots of a culture, will come from finally healing the culture of polarization that is expressed so profoundly in the social fabric as the shadows of Libra.
Where we polarize is where we reject within and project outwards.
Or, we reject outwards and absorb everything within.
Where we polarize we insist on separation.
We are collectively one intelligent consciousness.
Heck, we even have mirror neurons that reveal to us how much we are but reflections of a universal consciousness.
Polarizing hurts us.
It hurts our relationships.
We cause harm by projecting what we don’t want to see within ourselves onto others.
We cause harm by absorbing the shadows of others and identifying with wounds.
This is deep, cosmic ancestral clean-up, righting what we’ve gotten wrong so that we can re-harmonize our relationships.
The polarization must stop.
Here.
Now.
With each other.
With the Divine.
With the Earth.
With ourselves.
With the Other world.
With our ancestors.
With the elemental world.
With the stars.
With other countries.
With all of life.
So that we may return to a greater harmony with life itself.
To the return.
Are you ready?
Much love,
Mia
