Reply #18: Well it seems transiting Jupiter will be crossing over your natal Chiron

[Dover]

the second half of this month and transiting Chiron had its return to its natal position last month. Transiting Neptune has just finished up two years of passing back and forth over your natal Chiron. So your Chiron has been and is getting some action!

This transiting threesome will transit in opposition to your natal Pluto but not together as a conjunction. But one by one you will experience their opposition. And directly after each one opposes your natal Pluto (from their position at 0 degrees of Pisces) they will also be trining your natal Neptune when they go over 2 degrees of Pisces (whenever two or more transiting planets are in a water sign..Cancer/Scorpio/Pisces.. and reach the same degree as one of your natal planets in another water sign they form a trine as all like-elements fire, earth, air or water- do). If you don't know how to track transiting plantetary movements with an ephemeris, perhaps that might be one very helpful astrological skill to develop.

I think the dumbell (or figure 8)...lol... is an opposition (whereas the half dumbell is a conjunction). Lots of transformative healing energies in that natal configuration to develop (which you probably already have). And since they are so tightly related natally I think you would find the article's explanations of their interactive energies helpful in understanding how they operate together (even if your natal aspect configuration is slightly different). I think of oppositions as bringing in people and situations that hold a mirror up to us so we can see ourselves and our subconscious issues more clearly. Initially we project them onto the other/situation but if we can respond to these situations as opportunities for learning, then we can begin to withdraw our projections and let the mirror speak to us.
