♀ ☌ ⚷︎ Venus conjunct Chiron
Tender heart and hard lessons · Healing through connection · Worth tied to old wounds · Compassion in love
Venus conjunct Chiron, a natal conjunction at 0 degrees, joins the planet of love, attraction and values with the planet of old wounds and healing. It means your sense of what you value and how you receive love is closely tied to a past hurt, so you may come to love and worth through the experience of being wounded and then healing. The two planets act as one, which can make you deeply compassionate about what matters to you, and also make it hard to feel lovable or to enjoy pleasure without some pain attached.
A conjunction is an angle of 0° between two planets: the two planets merge and act as one, for better and worse. Here it links Venus, about love, attraction, values and pleasure, with Chiron, about the old wound and the wisdom that comes from healing it. We count it when the angle is within 6° of exact, a smaller orb because Chiron is a minor body; the closer it is, the stronger it feels.
