What Is Chiron Retrograde? All About Its Meaning and When It Occurs

Must Read

In astrology, the celestial body known as Chiron is the “wounded healer, who ironically could not heal himself.”

Symbolized by the centaur, Chiron exposes our deepest traumas and hurts that take a lifetime to mend. Chiron also allows us to understand these emotional triggers through our interpersonal relationships. Sometimes, we don’t know how we about things until we see someone else going through the motions and then the sentiment is unleashed from within. 

When Chiron goes retrograde, you can find yourself reflecting on these feelings and letting them ruminate. However, through self-love and compassion, you can start doing the work needed to heal, though it takes time.

Knowing that the path toward enlightenment doesn’t happen overnight and requires effort may be good or bad. Things can get awkward and uncomfortable because Chiron makes us vulnerable — to others and ourselves.

What is your Chrion sign?

Your Chiron sign is the zodiac sign the planet fell under when you were born. Chiron changes signs approximately every four years, taking almost fifty years to complete the zodiac cycle. You can find your Chiron sign here.

When is Chiron retrograde?

Chiron retrograde occurs once a year for five months at a time. This year, Chiron will retrograde in Aries from July 26 to Dec. 29. When Chiron is directly in Aries, we focus on improving our lives. When retrograde, it’ll make us self-reflect and take accountability for matters.

What Chiron retrograde means for your sign:

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Horoscope Sign Taurus.

This is your cosmic wake-up call! You’ve been avoiding dealing with your feelings in an effort to not rock the boat. You are realizing that you can only hide your emotions away for so long until they erupt like a volcano. If you can be real with yourself, you’ll be able to move forward and be free from the pain.  

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Horoscope Sign Gemini.

You want to connect with humanitarian groups that are helping society. The caveat is that you would like to partake in these projects with your friends, but they may not have the time now. You’ll find the motivation to help the charities who you care about and it’ll give you a new sense of being that will elevate your spirit.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Horoscope Sign Cancer.

You’ve been standing in the way of your own triumph s and professional growth. During Chiron’s cosmic moonwalk, you’ll start to discipline yourself and stick to the goals you had in mind for your future. You’ll be able to achieve anything you want, as long as you focus on your professional advancement instead of helping others race to the top.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Horoscope Sign Leo.

Looking for the definitive meaning of life may take a lot of time; however, you shouldn’t get discouraged. Use this time to grab life by the horns and do everything that you’ve always wanted to do but never dared to. Then you’ll be surprised by the philosophy you have as your ideology and perspective will change and you’ll find purpose.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Horoscope Sign Virgo.

At times you can use sex as a weapon, but that is only when you want to control or manipulate others. You’re beginning to comprehend that dominating those you love isn’t the best tactic for relationships to grow. Loosening the grip on your significant other or crush will give them the freedom to soar with you right by their side.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Horoscope Sign Libra.

Relationships can heal and transform you, and vice versa. You may find that you’ve gained a lot of insight into how you want to approach current partnerships due to the knowledge and lessons you have gained from past experiences. Remember, you can create the connections you want if you are willing to emphasize and care for the people you’re involved with.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Horoscope Sign Scorpio.

Giving your time and energy to others is something you relish deeply, but, you may not feel the sentiment is being reciprocated. Make sure that what you give and take is met with mutual respect and understanding to ensure you are being honored for your compassionate nature. In the end, be happy that you set those boundaries. 

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Horoscope Sign Sagittarius.

The wounds you carry from your youth are still tugging at your heart. To heal the past, consider embracing your inner child rather than running away. Do activities that nurture this part of your personality. You might even consider taking a day off from work and having fun that your teenage self would totally approve of. 

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Horoscope Sign Capricorn.

You may feel as though you’re the underdog in life, but, you’re not. Look around and see all the amazing gifts you have. Allow yourself to take stock of the people who genuinely care about you. Once you do that, you won’t take anything or anyone for granted and will see the wondrous ventures, opportunities and friendships that surround you. 

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Horoscope Sign Aquarius.

Words can hurt, but they can also heal. Knowing how to express your innermost sentiments can be challenging since you aren’t the most comfortable with sharing your feelings; however, learning how to communicate clearly and to be upfront with others will make you feel heard, acknowledged and appreciated. Be open with others to receive the love you crave and desire.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Horoscope Sign Pisces.

Stop feeling bad for your success! You should relish in all the wealth and bounty bestowed upon you. After all, you earned it! Don’t let people’s jealousy bring you down to their level. If friends or family have an issue and take it out on you, then they need to check their attitude instead of projecting their insecurities onto you.
