Chiron in Intimacy and Relationships

Relationships are our ultimate mirror and it is through the polarity of the other that we see the effects of our own wounding. In this workshop we will explore natal Chiron placements to understand how it might effect relationships, and look at how Chiron operates in both synthesis and composite charts. The goal is to illuminate Chironic effects on intimacy from a place of truth, healing and integration so we can move our energy toward the "deeply open heart" of authentic relating.

November 18: Adam Gainsburg

Moving from the Wound into the Heart: A Developmental Model of Wholeness through Chiron (this lecture will be live in the classroom via satellite) 

Astrological Chiron is the unsurpassed astrological litmus test for personal truth, as the Lord of Healing reveals nothing less than our own heart. Think and believe what you want, follow the particular spiritual path you choose, but your human heart is your personal representative of divine intelligence at all times throughout your life. This lecture will discuss the 4-stage process of Chironic healing signified by natal Chiron, from originating separation to embodied societal contribution. Chart examples will be included. A gentle, guided meditation may ensue as well.
