The comet commonly known as the “wounded healer” is so much more. As humanity evolves—in consciousness and technology—our collective mythology and cosmology must surely expand along with it. This explains the late-20th- and early-21st-century explosion of discoveries of exo planets and Kuiper Belt objects. We’re still at the starting gate of our understanding of these objects’ significance for life on earth, but there are emerging themes, the primary and arguably most urgent related to do with healing: our mindbodies and generational wounds, and Gaia herself.
As the “wisest and most just” of the Centaurs as well as a legendary teacher and healer, Chiron holds a special place not only in the pantheon but in modern astrology. His orbit swings between Saturn, lord of time and the material world, and the outer planets, who invite us to experience more etheric states of consciousness.
We will consider how the ancient mythology connects to the 21st-century zeitgeist, learn a little astronomy (those eccentric orbits!), and then plug in Chironic themes and explore the range of possibilities for each sign, house, major aspect and transit and, hopefully, come away with more compassion for our fellow humans and a renewed commitment to taking responsibility for our lives, relationships and personal healing journeys.
Since its discovery in 1977, the centaur Chiron has fascinated astrologers and many books were subsequently released on the subject, with the common reference of Chiron as the “wounded healer.” Maurice will take the study to a new direction and explore the complex dynamics involving this peculiar body, positioning Chiron in different houses and signs.

While many of us may wish to be happy and successful at work, what we really want is to be confident: confident that no matter what work offers up – success or failure, happiness or disappointment, recognition or indifference – we can unshakably rely on ourselves to be self-assured, and at our ease. – Michael Carroll

We will explore how the stars unlock a wealth of information about your unique talents and needs, guiding you to more ease and confidence in your career. Come connect to your intuition and identify your next steps – leave with a practical model you can apply now, and use for the rest of your life.
