Description

A guide to using astrology to identify your core wounds and heal them using psychological techniques, affirmations, and self-compassion

• Explains how the placement of Chiron in your birth chart identifies the core wounds and unconscious patterns that block empathy and self-forgiveness

• Offers a descriptive chapter for each of the 12 zodiac sign placements for Chiron, revealing how Chiron affects you psychologically, emotionally, sexually, spiritually, socially, financially, and intellectually

• Provides specific steps for each sign to shift self-destructive patterns as well as powerful affirmations infused with Reiki healing energy

We all have experienced disappointment, sadness, rejection, or the loss of something meaningful in our lives. When you are wounded, innate animalistic instincts for self-protection kick in as a means for survival. These behavior patterns are a natural and necessary coping strategy, at first. But many dwell far too long in these patterns and separate themselves from their source of inner wisdom and intuition.

Using astrology as a diagnostic tool, Lisa Tahir reveals how to use the astrological placement of the minor planet Chiron in your birth chart to identify the core wounds and unconscious patterns that block your capacity to have self-empathy and to forgive. Coining the phrase “Chiron Effect” to describe the magnetic pull that individuals have around specific areas of vulnerability, she explains how, like a raw nerve, the placement of Chiron describes what parts of our lives we might edit or hide for fear of being rejected as well as the areas of sensitivity where we are triggered. Offering a chart and online links to allow you to determine Chiron’s placement in your chart, the author explains how Chiron affects you psychologically, emotionally, sexually, spiritually, socially, financially, and intellectually depending on the sign and house it falls within. She outlines how to begin healing your core wounds through empathy and self-forgiveness, providing several steps for each sign placement to shift self-destructive patterns and learn to protect yourself as well as powerful affirmations infused with Reiki healing energy to help you anchor a new belief system.

As Lisa Tahir reveals, once identified, your personal Chiron placement can become the source of your greatest healing and empowerment. By recognizing your core wounding and learning to offer yourself empathy and forgiveness, you can finally break free from suffering, end self-sabotage, and allow your life to unfold in a new way.

The Chiron Effect explores the astrology of the minor planet Chiron within the scope of healing and self- empowerment. It describes Chiron's placement in each zodiac sign and house and the core woundings connected to these archetypes. The beginning of the book explained the author's trademarked approach to healing.

There have been many books written about Chiron and this one didn't have any unique content but solid content nonetheless. The explanations of Chiron through each of the twelve zodiac signs were concise and the author's passion and knowledge of the archetypes shone through.

I had trouble connecting to the author's voice and felt the beginning chapters on healing were basic new age regurgitations of every other spiritual book on the market.

Overall good content on Chiron's placements, but altogether lacking unique insights and information.

What a great dive into Chiron. This book gives you amazing information to explore your inner wounds and how to heal. I enjoyed the journal prompts scattered throughout the book as well as Lisa's vulnerability by giving us pieces of her own journey. She dedicates chapters throughout the book to Chiron in the individual signs, some chapters give you more information than others due to different types of wounds you need to address and completes the chapter with action items and affirmations. The affirmations were probably my favorite part of completing each sign.

Chiron can be a tricky point to look at in your chart, I found the introduction and explanations to psychoastrology to be passionate from Lisa and well educated. I did not feel confused on any information I was given.

Thank you Lisa Tahir, Inner Traditions, Bear & Co, and NetGalley for this advanced copy in exchange for an honest review!

This book is a guide to using astrology to identify and heal past wounds that might be holding you back in your current life. I have never heard of Chiron but this book gives a pretty in depth description of what it is and how you can use it in your life.

Apparently each person has their own sign which is defined by their birthday. This book lets you find which one belongs to you and then goes into detail on things you can do to make great decisions or even repair things that may have been done incorrectly in your past. It’s kind of a hard thing to go into detail in a short review but You will have a better understanding after reading the book.

I found it interesting because even though my horoscope sign is a Pisces that is not my Chiron sign. Once I found my sign I was very surprised how accurate many of the things that were stated are.

I am going to try some of these suggestions. If they don’t work there is no harm to me or anyone else so there is nothing to lose.

Also I think this is one of those books that you can read page by page to get information on all of the signs and how they function or just go to your section for your own analysis.

Try it for yourself and see how well yours matches up!
