Chiron Re-Enters Aries (retrograde) — "One Last Pass at an Old Wound." Chiron slips back from Taurus into Aries today for a final retrograde review before settling into Taurus for good in April 2027.
Today's Daily Reading:
The Moon moves into Sagittarius — expansive, questing, hungry for meaning — right as Chiron slips back into Aries for a final pass. This isn't a step backward. It's a chance to revisit something old with fresh eyes, one more honest look before it's ready to be left in the past for good. Today's 9 is the number of completion; whatever Chiron is circling back to, it's asking to be finished properly this time, not just survived again. Lapis lazuli carries Sagittarius' truth-seeking clarity — useful for looking honestly at something old without flinching.
Today's Mindful Activity:
Place a hand over your heart for a slow breath or two today. Let whatever tenderness rises simply be felt, without needing an explanation.
Today's Affirmation:
I'm allowed to close this chapter gently, without reopening every page of it.
Crystal to Carry:

Journal Prompt:
What old story about myself am I finally ready to let go of, rather than just survive again?
