Chiron symbolizes psychic and spiritual wounds, the instinct for self-preservation, and our quest for meaning. The Sun Conjunct Chiron aspect can be inspiring or frustrating depending on how much we are willing to deal with the issues that this transit brings.

It points to a deep spiritual wound that is very tough to heal, and in many cases, the individual has no idea they have such a wound. They can sometimes appear quite perfect on the outside, yet beneath, is an emptiness and intense loneliness, an emotional paralysis that may last throughout their lifetime.

A conjunction of the Sun and Chiron represents aspiration towards being involved with someone who has a higher purpose or mission in life. The person with this placement could be the reappearance of a teacher, guru, healer or messenger who has been away for a while.

Sun Conjunct Chiron synastry reveals that high ethics and standards may be compromised in ways that are less than honest. This alignment can indicate an emotional blackmailer or one who is the victim of emotional blackmail.

Sun Conjunct Chiron people are often big hearted, but their values are not deeply rooted. These people, when younger, may have used manipulation or blackmail of others, which has a tendency to continue. Thus, it is important to stress honesty in relationships with this connection.

Sun Conjunct Chiron is a very powerful, poignant and nearly always uncomfortable aspect. The power of the Chiron energy is so intense it almost always provokes a strong reaction in the Sun person.

The reasons for this most likely lie in the experiences during childhood and infancy, when the personal will operates at its most uncompromising level. If you can get a handle on what provokes this reaction, therein lies a treasure of self-knowledge that can lead to an extraordinary life.

The Sun conjunct Chiron aspect can play out in many ways. On the positive side, if there is a sense of forgiveness and compassion in this relationship (and if both people want to utilize those attributes), this aspect can have a very positive effect on the relationship.

Both people are able to share their vulnerabilities with one another and can help each other handle issues that arise from deep or suppressed hurts. They often bring out the best in each other, as they can be catalysts for change, cultivating what’s healthy and beautiful in the other person.
