Birth Chart Report for Herman Wildenvey
Your Sun Sign
Sun in Cancer
While kindness may not be exclusively the domain of Cancer, this virtue is shaped from the bonds of kinship first experienced in the home. Family values such as doing good rather than harm, being friendly, compassionate and helpful are the tender-hearted acts that promote the virtue of kindness. Deep inside these are virtues that inspire you. Even if your family upbringing did not provide the stability you needed to feel safe, you feel drawn to nurturing and acts of kindness.
Like crabs that dwell on the threshold of the sea Cancer is sensitised to the shape shifting seas and its tidal cycle. It secures its home regardless of the fluctuation in fortunes and the alternating tides. For you this instinctual truth suggests you have the ability to find stability within the daily tides of feelings, which swell, ebb, flood and retract. You feel compelled to find a secure place on the edge of life's upheavals and live in the world without being swept away by emotional complexity. You build a strong enough shell to contain your feelings so that you are able to love and care without harm to your tender heart.
When you feel safe and protected you emerge from your shell to demonstrate your caring, affection, warmth and kindness. You are vulnerable and tender, slow to trust and warm up, but when you feel securely attached then your heart opens to care and nurture others. Your instinct is to protect the vulnerable, shelter the homeless and care for the sensitive. Being so responsive to others, you are finely attuned to what others need. Moved by the plight of those less fortunate, those in distress or people, who feel hurt or rejected, you are able to demonstrate kindness and compassion. You are strongly influenced by the maternal archetype, whose natural instinct is to nurture, protect, shelter and foster those who are vulnerable.
Charity begins at home, which is your domain. Donald Winnicott reminded us that home is where we start from and having a secure enough base allows us to wander into the world with the legacy of a sympathetic ear and a tender heart. Therefore one of your labours of life is to find your home, where you belong, and your ancestry. This might take some time. In the meantime you will have different places where you settle in your search for home. Along the way you bring warmth and character to your tasks. To find your vitality and spirit and to feel soulful in the world you need to strive to find the qualities of caring, helpfulness, protection, sympathy and tenderness.

Your Rising Sign
Ascendant in Libra
Retail therapy does not soothe the soul. It may relieve temporary uncomfortable thoughts and feelings, acting as a distraction, but it is not really a solution. You know this. You are a born diplomat so you know that when upsets occur a new object does not really satisfy, that eventually the conflict needs to be resolved. But you have Libra Rising and so you also know how soothing a lovely object can be for a short time. This is your dilemma. Your true purpose is to sooth troubled waters, and not via financial means. Possessions are beautiful and hold some value but the higher path is the one that offers true joy. You're courteous, affectionate, thoughtful, modest and indecisive. Much of your life's purpose is connected with your relationships, both personal and professional. Human relationships are your primary motivation in life. You spend much of your time devoted to thinking about the needs and wishes of other people, ensuring that everyone is treating each other in a fair manner. For this reason your purpose may be connected with justice, mediation or diplomatic work. Harmony is so important for your well-being. If you would like to focus on a positive affirmation connected to money then with your Libran Ascendant you could use this one from “Creating Money – Keys to Abundance”by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer “Everything I do adds beauty, harmony, order and light to the universe”.

At some point you might feel you are intellectually inadequate, which can lead you to over-compensate by cramming your head full of information, facts and data.

Saturn in 9th House
The planet Saturn progresses slowly through the Zodiac and therefore its influence is subtle. Saturn is a wonderful planet when you do your homework. However, if you try to escape your responsibilities then you are likely to suffer the consequences. So wherever this planet progresses you need to listen to your conscience and obey, rather than try to cut corners. In your case Saturn is progressing now through the 9th House of your Zodiac indicating that opportunities for new adventures are likely to dawn. Of course you may have Saturn in the 9th House of your Birth Chart and therefore you are accustomed to life-changing situations connected with foreign countries, travel, study, teaching and religion.

Either way these friends are certainly original.
Neptune in 8th House
+Neptune Square Pluto When the planets Neptune and Pluto combine to influence the 8th House of your Birth Chart your financial portfolio is subject to some volatile forces. On the positive side of the ledger you can accumulate great wealth, strike it rich. Your challenge then is to make the most of your good fortune, rather than squandering it. This is the negative side of the ledger. You may have difficulty making sound investments. Forces at work seem to sabotage your efforts. On the other hand you may have a passionate interest in the world’s economy, natural resources and politic organisations. As such you could expend your time, personal income and energy becoming embroiled in matters larger than your own personal interests. As such material wealth is repellent rather than attractive. All of your personal resources may be directed into helping the planet and society in general. Money may enable you to pursue your passions.
Pluto in 8th House
+Pluto Opposition Neptune You may have many talents, but unless you have some other stabilising influences in your Birth Chart, holding on to your assets is not one of them. You have the best of intentions when it comes to investing but your assets seem to dissolve before they can come to fruition. If you are reading this report when you are young then you would be well advised to invest your money in long-term, slow-gain assets. If you are more mature then you need to turn your attention to the other talents and riches that you have accumulated throughout your life. The influence of the planet Neptune can be a positive one, but it is more likely to dissolve your assets than help them grow. Investing in lifestyle, your own talents, charitable institutions and places of retreat are likely to be beneficial.
NorthNode in 11th House
Your North Node is in the 11th house with the opposite pole of the South Node occupying the 5th. Astrologically this is similar to the Leo-Aquarius polarity, which contrasts the sphere of individual imagination and self-expression with group participation and company creativity. Your horoscope suggests that while you may be more comfortable being personally involved with your own creativity, it is necessary to become more aligned with community concerns. Vocationally your path leads towards the sphere of being involved in group projects and undertakings. Therefore you need to strive to integrate your originality with the social climate in the environment. Ironically while you are passionate about your own ideas and beliefs your path takes you into the political arena where the voice of the people and the community need to be heard and supported. You have the capacity to be a voice for a larger collective; therefore it is important to know that others will respect your views and beliefs.
It is valuable to know that you will be well received and admired in the community when you heed the call to become more involved in organisations and group efforts. Turning the spotlight away from your own need for acknowledgement and applause to follow your strong humanitarian impulses will be beneficial for you and your career. You need to be involved in a cooperative to exchange ideas and information and bring your unique enterprise into public domain. Your creative talent is both exclusive and original, therefore you find your colleagues and soul mates through like-minded associations, which are often marginal or out of the mainstream. It may be through your participation in communal action that you find a greater purpose and direction. No doubt others will acknowledge your social role; therefore it is important to consider others' invitations to speak publicly about your creativity, join the executive of the society or represent the group in some way. Vocationally your creative expression is ultimately tied to the wider community of artisans, healers, visionaries and entrepreneurs. Your voice adds weight to the acceptance and respect of your creative endeavours.
Chiron in 8th House
Relationships are delicately balanced at the best of times. A loving relationship offers the opportunity for healing of emotional wounds from the past and personal growth and fulfilment. When two people relate in a tender way then it is possible to provide the greatest opportunities for healing rather than more hurtful experiences. Working through emotionally difficult times is when Chiron is working at its best. At times in relationship, one person may inadvertently trigger the other’s hurt feelings. These feelings may be left over from your childhood, or from a previous relationship. Either way your current relationship is an opportunity to relate differently. A loving union provides the chance to let go of the past and experience intimacy and true love now. This placement of Chiron in your Combined Chart means that this relationship is likely to be deep and meaningful. Shared resources, sexual intimacy and metaphysical matters are highlighted. Together you can help each other recognise what is truly valued in your lives. Whether your lessons are painful, or happy, you learn much about money, sex, and sharing. It is possible that this union will result in a business or work that has an esoteric bent. It is also important when Chiron is placed here that you both carefully negotiate, as much as you can, your values when it comes to sharing. For instance do you agree on the type of investments that you want? Do you both want to invest in property or would one of you prefer to rent and put have a large savings account? Another sensitive area is sexuality. The energy of Chiron can be very healing, but it can also be hurtful. You need to ascertain early in your relationship whether or not you are sexually compatible. If you have conflicting values in this intimate area then you need to be very sensitive to each other’s needs. The more that you address any relationship problems early in the relationship the more that you avoid conflict later on. It is important that you both speak your truth, not what you think is expected. Emotional truth will surface sooner or later when Chiron is placed here.
Nodes
NorthNode in Virgo
You have the North Node in Virgo and the South Node in Pisces, the astrological polarity that finely balances the natural schism between order and chaos. It might feel easier to slip into the twilight zone where you are invisible and not identified. However your task is to create a rhythm and a routine in making the creative and caring aspects of yourself an everyday reality. You are fighting the dragon that wants to be unidentified and selfless, but to be heroic you need to be sure that your service is acknowledged and you are rewarded for the deeds you do. It is natural for you to know what others feel and fulfill their longing. This instinct to serve others and be of assistance to the world-at-large is a noble and virtuous inheritance, but one that may leave you feeling exhausted and overlooked unless you consciously attempt to use this skill in your everyday work life. Your task is to disseminate your innate creative, imaginative and original talents through work
Your North Node is represented by the image of the maiden, a complex image that has undergone considerable transformations from its original meaning. Ironically it implies an image of freedom and independence, a woman in relationship to her internal self, contained and autonomous, in charge of her own desires. Vocationally this motif is important as you need to follow its calling into the world considering your own needs while also honouring your desire to be of service. The urge to serve and to strive for wholeness needs to be recognised in your vocational pursuit. However while you may project this urge onto a literal career your vocation is the calling to serve yourself first. Therefore it is important that any vocation fulfills your desire for self-improvement and self-understanding. It is this quest that may lead you into a wide spectrum of occupations in health care, social services or holistic healing. You could excel in the field of health care whether it be through dentistry, nursing, mental health, nutrition, medicine, social work, clinical psychology or holistic healing careers involving herbs, natural remedies and therapies, nutrition, hygiene, physical realignment, naturopath etc. While these are possible careers it is more metaphoric of your need to be in touch with the natural world which could manifest in many other ways.
You need to develop your discriminatory faculties, not as a defence against chaos, but as a container for your imagination. You need to learn to deconstruct the whole into its various parts in order to help it function better. Whether this deconstruction is done through dissection, editing or criticising your goal is to improve it, therefore your quest to perfect needs to be recognised in any profession or else it may be experienced as obsessive. Routine and ritual are very necessary in order to promote a sense of coherence or any chaos in the workplace will become unsettling.
Aspects
Sun Hard Moon
When the Sun and the Moon are combining unfavourably in your chart, it means that you're likely to have difficulty succeeding in life. You may have trouble in money matters, struggle with employment, and suffer at the hands of other people. You should be particularly wary of troublesome women, who could create obstacles to you achieving your goals. In some cases, this combination can also mean that you suffer from ill health, which further hinders your chances of success.
Sun Sextile Neptune
It is time to slow down and contemplate. Spiritual, artistic and philanthropic activities are highly beneficial right now. Nature walks and trips to the seaside are also very soothing. If you have been working hard or undergoing rapid changes in your life then you would be well advised to make the most of this period. Relax and reflect. This is a time of assimilation rather than action. Feelings in connection to the past may emerge during this period. If so, then express the emotions in a safe and gentle manner and allow a growing sense of comprehension to dawn. An artistic project, spiritual retreat or philanthropic activity may be the perfect avenue to explore the softer side of your nature.
Sun Soft Neptune
You're likely to have many dreams about what you would like to achieve in your life because the Sun is making contact with the planet Neptune in your birth chart. Your ability to achieve these dreams depends largely on other influences. There's no doubt that you're intuitive and talented, but other aspects of your chart will indicate whether or not you've the practical ability needed to ensure success in a sometimes harsh world. You're a sympathetic and kind person, who generously enjoys supporting other people in achieving their life goals. This could range from offering a sympathetic ear to other people's troubles to working for a charitable institution. You're wise in the ways of the spiritual world, feeling at home in the imaginative and esoteric realms. It's the harsh realities of the material world that you find confusing. This is probably because of your highly-sensitive nature, which is so in tune with the emotional and spiritual aspects of life. You're easily emotionally influenced by other people and circumstances, and should therefore take care to surround yourself with positive and uplifting friends. You're also likely to be sensitive to the physical world, reacting to drugs or suffering from allergies. For this reason you should take care with your diet and avoid addictive drugs. It's important that you create moments for quiet reflection, communing with nature, or listening to beautiful music. The ocean could play a particularly important role in your life, inspiring or soothing your sensitive nature. You need to have some freedom to daydream and to pursue your artistic talents. This is essential if you're to achieve your life goals.
Moon Hard Pluto
The Moon and the planet Pluto are connected in your birth chart indicating that you're an intense and emotional person, prone to extreme highs and lows. You love drama and intensity, because these give you a sense of being deeply connected to your loved ones, and to the world. It's likely that your family and home life are periodically emotionally volcanic. This can be problematic if other members of your family don't desire the same level of intensity, particularly if they're seeking peace and quiet at home. If this is the case your needs are directly opposed to your loved ones', which may not concern you, but could result in dramatic changes in your personal life. This is also a problem because you've a deep sense of commitment to your personal relationships, and feel betrayed if others don't share this commitment. It's likely that your need for emotional intensity originates from an early childhood experience, probably linked with your mother or another strong woman figure. Your relationship with your mother is likely to be immersed with intense feelings, perhaps even stemming from a life-or-death situation. You may feel positively or negatively about your mother. Either way your feelings are likely to be strong. You're a resourceful person, and can rely on your own resources to solve most problems. You need to find a creative outlet for your intense nature, something that will totally absorb your attention. Perhaps you would enjoy property development, or renovating your house. You're a powerful person with leadership skills, and a need for a challenge.
Jupiter Soft Saturn
The planets Jupiter and Saturn are making a beneficial aspect in your birth chart indicating success in achieving your life goals. You're wise and perceptive, with a talent for creative ideas and the ability to put those ideas into action. You're blessed with a wonderful sense of timing, knowing exactly when to make the right moves to achieve a desired result, whether it be for yourself or for a group project. You've just the right blend of optimism and realism. For these reasons you can enjoy success in self-employment or be a valued member of a team. Whether you're self-employed or not, you work well within a structured system and therefore can do well in business. It's likely that both conventional and unorthodox approaches to life appeal, as you understand the advantages in learning from tradition, as well as the benefits of trying new ideas. You've a chance to be very successful as you're neither profligate nor mean, but have a balance. This is a very fortunate aspect. If you don't take your abilities for granted but use them wisely you can gain great success in life.
Jupiter Hard Pluto
The planets Jupiter and Pluto are making a difficult aspect in your birth chart indicating that you've some difficulty achieving your life goals, but you will get to where you want in the end. The problem is that you reject the usual paths to success, believing that you've a better way of doing things. Your attempts to change the rules, or to try to make others agree with your insights, are sincere, but intrusive. As a result you often land yourself in troublesome situations, which can lead to disillusionment and distract you from your purpose. This can dent your confidence. You range from over confidence to completely lacking in confidence. The truth lies somewhere in between. Society has rules to run itself efficiently, and these can be to your benefit rather than detriment. Once you accept your own and society's limitations then you can achieve your objectives.
Saturn Hard Uranus
When you're not rebelling against authority, or anyone who tries to curb your individual rights, then you're able to succeed in achieving your ambitions. However, the combination of the planets Saturn and Uranus indicate that you're likely to sabotage your own success through wilful behaviour. You need to overcome your wayward tendencies, and learn to compromise, otherwise your career suffers. On a positive note you're independent, resourceful and self-motivated, all of which enable you to eventually achieve success in whatever you turn your mind to. You may discover that you've natural abilities in the fields of science, mathematics, business organisation, industry and metaphysics. It's likely that you'll succeed in any career that utilises your gift for blending the old with the new.
Saturn Soft Pluto
The combination of the planets Saturn and Pluto in your chart suggests that you're an ambitious, insightful and powerful person. You're likely to make a powerful impact on your friends, family, colleagues and loved ones, both as a child and an adult. At times you might be surprised by the extent of other people's reactions to your presence and opinions. You may even surprise yourself by your own reactions to some circumstances. Authority is likely to be a continuing source of difficulty in your life, as you attempt to find the right balance between your own individual rights, and those of the community. Of course there are many instances when these two rights coincide, but you're more likely to find yourself involved in the clashes, perhaps as a mediator. It's possible that you could become involved in someone's power struggles, in which your role may or may not be central to the outcome. It's true that you've the ability to be a powerful leader, perhaps in the government or armed forces, or as an executive or politician. You can be a powerful leader, but first you must learn to use your unique insights for positive purposes. The 19th Century author John Stuart Mill said in his work On Liberty (1859) that: "Everyone who desires power, desires it most over those who are nearest to him, with whom his life is passed, with whom he has most concerns in common, and in whom any independence of his authority is oftenest likely to interfere with his individual preferences". Herein lies a key to your chart. You've the ability to succeed in your ambitions, but first you must learn how to deal with the balance of power in your life, respecting both your own and other people's rights to succeed.
Uranus trine Neptune
With Uranus Trine Neptune, you experience a gentle intuitive link between Zadkiel and Tamiel. Zadkiel is the Angel of Death, and Tamiel of Dreams. Together they extend your understanding of the nature of life and its limits. They also reveal the many ways you can change your life through skillful action.
You have a natural love of ritual. You find, when you think about it, that ritual pervades everything you do. You get along with other people very well because you observe the steps of ritual, entering into each conversation, activity, or association according to socially or culturally defined rules, and in so doing you put other people at ease without undo fuss or bother.
You can develop subconscious talents through conscious expression. In concert with your Angels, you express little pieces of your subconscious awareness in conversation or action. As you do this, you affirm your less conscious abilities and honor them and your Angels. Then your mind is better able to provide ideas and feelings to aid your work.
Inspired idealism may not be what you think you have been looking for, but you are certain to find it eventually. Your Angels send you dreams and ideas all the time, and you have only to pay attention to them. Your idealism provides a foundation for you to help others who experience major disasters or transformations in their lives. When you or others experience loss, your Angels are ready and willing to lift you up.
A potential weakness is the lack of stamina. Physical exercise to build lung capacity and muscle strength is well worth the effort. The physical strength you gain provides a foundation for emotional and spiritual strength.
For mental strength, meditation or yoga provide an organized practice. Kundalini yoga provides a medium for mental focus as well as physical exercise, building all the structures you need to support your developing psychic awareness.
Another possible weakness of structure could lead to high blood pressure and its associated ailments. The above mentioned exercise, meditation, and yoga all serve to reduce blood pressure and strengthen the system so as to avoid dangers of stroke and heart ailments.
Heightened psychic states including clairvoyance are the norm for this combination.
Uranus Soft Neptune
The planets Uranus and Neptune are combining in your chart suggesting that your creative urges are strong. You enjoy exploring new territory, either through studying or travelling and your talents may lie in writing, healing, social welfare, healing or spiritual fields. You may be keen to explore metaphysical matters, perhaps even belonging to a secret society or a group dedicated to global healing, charity or spirituality. Your psychic abilities and intuition are likely to be heightened, and this may help you explore your creativity.
Uranus Soft Pluto
The planets Uranus and Pluto both move slowly through the zodiac, and therefore any connection between the two planets affects birth charts for a short period of time. You were born in such a time meaning that you feel the urge to bring about revolutionary change in your life and those of your friends, colleagues and society. You've high ideals and the creative energy to implement changes. You may be curious about metaphysical matters, science and global affairs.
Neptune trine NorthNode
With Neptune trine the North Node, you experience natural ease as the Angelic hosts enter into your life with Tamiel. You are inclined to think that anything is possible when this aspect is active in your life, perhaps because so many Angelic energies contribute to your lively imagination.
A weakness is the lack of flexibility in dealings with other people, possibly due to your confusion about what they want or how you fit into their plans. Another possible problem concerns dreams that disturb your peaceful sleep.
If you have difficulty establishing good contacts with other people, call upon Tamiel and the heavenly hosts for comfort and support. They can stimulate imaginative ways of getting your ideas across to others.
On the up side, you can develop your psychic sensitivity so that you know what is coming in the next moment or the near future. This way you feel better prepared and can appear more adaptable, even if you still feel a bit foggy about the details.
With a host of Angels behind you to bolster your courage, you find that engaging with others in social activities becomes easier.
Pluto conjunct Neptune
With Pluto Conjunct Neptune, you experience a profound interaction between Metatron and Tamiel. Metatron has been called the King of Angels and the Chief of the ministering Angels. This Angel is thought to be the pillar of fire the Jews followed in their exodus from Egypt. He is a certain link between you and the divine. Metatron's association with Tamiel, the Angel of Primordial Energies, is extremely powerful.
You undoubtedly experience supernatural events and conditions during your life. Your Angels provide this resource and can help you refine it. Psychic impressions and intuition become second nature to you after a while. You learn to act on intuition in much the same way you would act on advice from your accountant.
One facet of the path of personal integrity for you involves purification of your soul. This means elevating your thoughts above petty jealousy and anger. While you may never overcome negative thinking entirely, working with your Angels will lift you up, step by step, to thoughts of compassion and love. Love overcomes fear and compassion overcomes hatred, it's just about that simple.
One possible weakness is over-sensitivity. This is only a weakness when you indulge the possibility. Your sensitivity is the source of at least one extrasensory ability. You will want to maintain your sensitivity while learning to manage any side effects. Other people may continue to see you as a sentimental type, but you will find that you really don't care what they think.
Another perceived weakness is confusion in interpreting psychic and intuitive information as it comes to you. Here again, this is only a weakness until you develop the necessary skills. Meditation each day allows your Angels to contact you more directly.
You have the power of a storyteller combined with the wisdom of a seer. You could write fiction or dramatic scripts, and your poetry can become the liquid fire of inspiration and soothing balm for the soul.
NorthNode Soft Sun

You've a tendency to daydream and live in a fantasy world, possibly even escaping into the world of drugs and depression. This is because of the association of the South Node and the planet Neptune in your chart. Your quest in this life is to put your creative talents to positive use.
Chiron conjunct Mars
This aspect gives you an incredibly strong tendency to do things your own way. When you were a child you may have heard your parents, frequently, saying, “All right, do it your way. Don’t listen to me.” and as an adult it is still difficult for you to accept advice to do something differently than that you had planned.
However, as a child, you WOULD accept advice if you felt that it was coming from a mentor. And that could have had difficult consequences, if the person you saw as mentor was of less than reputable character, or someone prone to poor judgement.
One of the lessons of this aspect is when to take advice, when not to; and who to listen to. As an adult there is still the need to follow your own path to resolve problems, although there is still a desire to listen to advice if you feel it comes backed by some authority noted for special or unique insight, rather than just from your own opinion or some arbitrary authority.
Once you tap into the energy of this aspect you develop a remarkable ability to find the key to overcome other people’s problems and you usually are very concerned with doing just that.
But in your own life it can be quite a different story. You tend to have continual or recurrent problems with Martian things (attacking problems, cutting in to things, taking focused actions, to name a few), over and over, until you learn some major lessons. After that, you can not only work to attack your own problems in unique ways but you may also develop a remarkable insight into what makes other people tick.
There is almost always a unique view of sex, and of sexual roles, which is totally of your own. This is not to say that it is abnormal or unnatural but merely that it seems to be one you have found for yourself, often a bit beyond socially accepted traditions.
One downside of this aspect is that you do make some enemies in life, or at least, alienate some individuals but this is never something you do on purpose. Rather, happens incidental to your tendency to pursue your own ways.
Chiron sextile Mercury
One side of your Chiron wound was being made to feel that you were not using your head. It may be that you were made to feel that you were asking questions that you shouldn’t need to ask, or it may be that you were led to believe that you should be questioning more.
No matter what the events that occurred, you feel the need for your mind to go anywhere/everywhere. You developed a very active mind, with a powerful curiosity which leads you to always want to go an extra step, learn a bit more. So whatever conclusions you come to in most situations, you are always open to the possibility that you may find out something new to change your way of thinking. You want to know about everything!
Because of this, your mind is non-discriminatory, you are able to see the potential in everyone, do not put people in ‘classes’, and find that you can greatly appreciate people who others consider ‘not normal’. Another facet of this sextile is that you have a gift to be able to see the humor in almost any situation, and can convey this to others.
You could be an excellent teacher, teller of tales, or maybe a comedian because you can see things that enable you to communicate with other people on their level. Because of your love of learning, you would also do well in research of some kind.
Chiron Square Moon
Chiron is not a Planet in the astronomical sense, but as a celestial wanderer it fits the ancient tradition of a Planet. In many ways Chiron is marginal to the herd of Planets and metaphorically parallels these feelings of being an outsider. In aspect to the Moon it highlights the sense of feeling displaced. Often this is experienced through dislocation, abandonment or relinquishment.
Chiron combines with the Moon in a way that is akin to that uncomfortable feeling of being a stranger in a strange land. For many this combination has been experienced as their mother’s postnatal depression, a family separation, an adoption or emigration. It is also possible that a parental wound of displacement or exclusion may have psychically harmed your sense of safety. However this presents in your life experience, it suggests your process of being close to your caretakers has been bruised by feelings of exclusion that infected the family atmosphere and your feelings of security. You may harbour feelings of marginality with the need to be accepted often resulting in a feeling of exclusion. Your task is to accept that your apex of security is not at the centre of the system, but on its fringe. Your fate may be to wander or feel displaced before your sense of belonging can be established. Or you may have had the experience of your family being the outsider in the culture or society you grew up in. This family wound of feeling marginal may have hampered your ability to leave the enmeshed family unit. You may feel that your family has perpetuated and confirmed a myth that the pain of living is great. If this is so, then you may feel that your spirit to adventure and explore beyond the family and its culture has been compromised.
When you feel secure, you know you can be heroic when faced with being foreign or marginal in the system within which you find yourself. If your parents encouraged a healthy sense of feeling different and demonstrated freedom was possible by not being part of the system, then you internalised a healthy sense of being foreign. You would have developed the self-esteem to be secure in a foreign environment and acquired the ability to be compassionate and caring about others who suffer the same sense of disenfranchisement. In many ways this is the task of this aspect.
However if there was not enough parental support, you felt orphaned from your family unit. Your sense of attachment may have suffered due to a parental wound. When a parent’s spirit is broken, the shade haunts the family atmosphere, leaving you feeling helpless and unprepared to become part of a greater community. Your destiny is to engage in the depth understanding and healing of the family wound that keeps you feeling disenfranchised.
Feeling marginal and peripheral you are at risk of recreating relationships where abandonment or exclusion impedes intimacy. Healing comes through the forging of close bonds with others who accept you. Your kindred spirits accept you into their inner circle and celebrate your differences. They engage with you on your own level without making you feel that you need to be one of them. Through your close relationships with soulmates your feelings of exclusion and marginality are healed.
Chiron sextile Venus
You have a great deal of love for others, and caring but it seems the Venus passivity is accentuated in this aspect. That is, this sextile seems to express itself more quietly and subtly than most other Chiron aspects.
Positively, you tend to try and help others on a day-to-day basis, sometimes openly but seldom advertised. But negatively, at times you could be more assertive in giving your assistance.
Part of the wound here is that you were made to feel, to some extent, that your assistance was not of value, or that others could be of more help than yourself. So one of your lessons in life is to get to know yourself well enough to truly see your value, both to yourself and to other people. Because the sextile is an aspect that requires some work in order to reap the benefits, you need to interact with people frequently, on many different levels, in order to learn just how much you are worth. As you heal, you learn not only of your own value, but gain insight to help others see their own value. Many with this aspect go on to help the under-privileged, the ill, the handicapped, to find ways to be of use to society.
Chiron here does bring out your romantic side or your poetic nature. There is a definite one-of-a-kind quality in any talent you have, and should other aspects propel you into the arts, your creative works will live long after you have passed on.
