After being in Aquarius since 2005, Chiron joins both Jupiter and Uranus and gets his hooves wet in Piscean waters on April 20, 2010 at 2:37 a.m. EDT (April 19 at 11:37 p.m. PDT). He'll retrograde on June 4 then return to Aquarius on November 11, before re-entering Pisces on February 8, 2011 to settle in until 2018 and again, for a few months in 2019.
In Greek mythology, Chiron was the centaur (half man, half horse) son of Greek god Cronus. He was knowledgeable in the healing arts and mentored Greek heros like Hercules, Jason and Achilles. Unlike most centaurs who are known for their impetuousness and hot-headedness, Chiron was wise and patient. One day, he was accidentally wounded by Hercules, and despite his extensive medical knowledge, he could not heal his own wound. Being immortal, he endured great pain until he exchanged his life to free Prometheus from his suffering and die in his place.In astrology, Chiron is the wounded healer, representing our wounds -- may they be physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual or otherwise -- and our healing -- may it be through being nursed back to a physically healthy state, releasing painful memories, letting go of negativity or restoring our faith. For 5 years, Chiron's transit in Aquarius focused on "healing" social structures through individual humanitarian efforts coming together to make an impact despite the differences in our races, cultures, belief systems, etc.
