On Sunday, Chiron begins spinning retrograde in Aries. This asteroid represents pain, healing, and personal growth. During Chiron’s travels through Aries since 2018, you’ve felt stirred to unearth new layers of self-understanding—and, in the process, tapped into your communications talents. This week (and through the end of the year), you feel insecure about your skills. Core wounds resurface, and you learn to clear self-doubt in unexpected ways. Later, on Friday, messenger Mercury enters Virgo, intensifying your communication style. You may find yourself engaging in deep conversations about trust, intimacy, and joint finances. This is a favorable time for negotiation, research, and expressing your needs and boundaries in close relationships. Be honest with your shadow side. If you’ve been repressing painful memories or vulnerable experiences, release them through words. Speak your mind!
