Transit Chiron Square Natal Mars
Hurt meets will
This is a season when old tender places get pressed right where you’re trying to move forward. Desire, anger, and courage wake up the wound, and the wound tests the way you express desire, anger, and courage. It asks you to find a form of power that doesn’t abandon your sensitivity—or use it as armor.

- Healing-through-action — willingness to practice new responses, not just analyze.

Chiron square Mars stirs the place where your impulse to act intersects with an old ache about being too much, not enough, or wrongly aimed. Heat rises: the sudden flush, the clenched jaw, the urge to push or withdraw. You may notice the past ghosting the present—times you were punished for speaking up, or when your anger made a mess. This transit doesn’t create the wound; it illuminates how your will has learned to work around it. The result can be sideways energy: prickliness, defensiveness, proving yourself, or going quiet until resentment burns holes in the silence.
Conscious engagement softens the split. When you treat anger as a flare that marks a need—not a verdict—you get to choose your response. Action becomes part of healing rather than a cover for hurt. You can test new moves: slower breaths before sharp words, direct requests instead of barbed hints, a pause to locate the true issue beneath the trigger. The courage Mars brings isn’t just for confrontation; it’s for tenderness with yourself in the aftermath, for repair when you misfire, and for staying present long enough to act from strength instead of scar tissue.
Life Areas & Expression
Relationships & Connection
Friction highlights where you overreach or under-ask. Honest, measured assertion can turn conflict into clarity, revealing needs that were hard to name before.
Work & Purpose
Drives to prove yourself may spike, along with frustration at obstacles. Channel the heat into purposeful effort and clear boundaries rather than urgency or perfectionism.
Body & Vitality
The body broadcasts what the mind races past—tight shoulders, shallow breath, restless energy. Let movement be medicine: paced exertion that grounds the fire without burning you out.

Treat every surge of heat as a message with a map attached. Ask what the anger is protecting, what the urgency is afraid will be lost, and what action would honor both your need and your integrity. When you let your body register the signal, the mind doesn’t have to carry the whole story; a breath, a brief walk, or a hand on the heart can widen the space in which choice becomes possible.
Accountability is part of the healing—not as punishment, but as stewardship. If you overstep, repair. If you dim yourself, practice one brave sentence. Gradually, power and tenderness stop competing and start collaborating; your will no longer needs to prove itself to be trusted. It can simply do what it came here to do.
I let the heat teach me how to move without wounding.
