Moon square Chiron is a natal aspect where your emotional needs and sense of safety rub against an old wound you have learned to understand. It can feel like a tender spot that gets touched again and again, yet that friction is what nudges you toward deeper self-care and a kind of hard-won wisdom. The square asks you to notice what makes you feel secure and to be gentle with the places where you were once hurt.
