Chiron is an asteroid, a mythological figure, and a catalyst for that delicate place you have deep inside that contains your most inner sense of woundedness. Where Chiron is placed in your zodiac charts, according to sign, house, and aspect, shows where you yourself are the most deeply wounded, usually in your childhood and where you need the most healing.
