Understanding the story of Chiron is important to integrate the lessons associated with the Chiron in Aries transit. In Greek mythology, Chiron was an immortal centaur, half-man/half-horse, who was known for being a wise and great healer. Legend has it that Chiron was accidentally shot in the knee by the warrior Hercules with a venomous poisoned arrow. The arrow was infused with the venom of the deadly Hydra monster causing severe, incurable pain to those unfortunate to be wounded by them. Although Chiron was a great, wise healer, he could not heal himself from the painful wounding caused by the arrow. Hercules, feeling quite regretful for the accidental pain that he inflicted upon Chiron, went to Zeus, the king of the Gods, to make a deal to relieve Chiron from his pain. Chiron made a deal to give up his immortality in order to end his pain. In turn, Zeus placed Chiron as a constellation in the sky…known as Centaurus…also known as Sagittarius.
The story of Chiron’s wounding speaks of someone that is wounded through no fault of his/her own. Also, while Chiron was able to heal others, the accidental wound was something that he simply could not heal himself. Thus, he was willing to sacrifice his own life in order to rid himself of the unbearable pain of the incurable wound. The Chironic journey involves the acknowledgment of the wound that has always been there. It is the wound that lies dormant yet still causes an incessant ache. It is through recognizing and tending to the wound that we are able to heal ourselves and assist others in their healing journeys. Chiron was a great teacher, and there are knowledge and wisdom that we can offer others when we first seek to heal our own wounds.
Chiron’s Path to Healing
Chiron’s position in the zodiac is important in understanding its role in the healing process. Chiron orbits between the planets Saturn and Uranus. Saturn offers us lessons and solid growth and maturity if we are willing to put in the work. Uranus offers us freedom and liberation only after we have learned the important lessons of taking responsibility and accountability for our lives as demonstrated by Saturn. In the middle lies Chiron with its woundedness. In order to obtain the freedom we desire via Uranus; it is important to address the wounds that keep us bogged down in a state of despair and pain.
Likewise, Chiron’s position between Saturn and Uranus also grants us the opportunity to become the “wounded healer.” Through embracing the responsibility of acknowledging and addressing our wounds, we can heal ourselves. Upon healing ourselves, we can take the knowledge we have gained and offer healing to the collective via the Uranian energy. In many ways, our woundedness serves as a path back to ourselves. Once we have committed to the Chironic journey of self-healing, we gain the ability to turn our woundedness into a higher purpose that can assist others on their paths to healing.

Although we are individuals, that does not mean that we know who we are. Chiron in Aries will bring up issues related to our identities that when addressed will allow us to embrace our existence in an honest manner. Although we are born, most if not all of us are imprinted with the thoughts and beliefs of our families and the societies that we are born into. Few of us actually get the chance to decide who or what we are from a secure place. We are born into our environments, and those circumstances shape us for better or worse.
With Chiron in Aries, there is the opportunity to face the wounding around our identity. This will require the fearlessness of Aries as we will be asked to question everything that we thought we were. Are we really who we think we are? How did we become who we are now? Do we even know who we are? Why are we even here in this physical experience? The process of self-identification is both illuminating and confusing as it prompts us to question everything that we think we are in order to heal the wounds of our existence.
