Today, June 1st at 13:10 PT, Venus forms a conjunction with Chiron, a powerful cosmic alignment that brings tenderness to the surface. Venus rules love, connection, beauty, and self-worth. Chiron represents our core wounds and our capacity to heal them. When they meet, we’re asked to look at where we’ve been hurt in love and where we’ve been scared to receive the very softness we crave. This is a day to embrace the small, sacred moments that remind us we are already whole, even when we’re still healing.

With Venus touching Chiron, love becomes a space for healing, not hiding. A synastry chart today can reveal how you and another person mirror each other’s growth, not just where you connect, but how you heal together. It’s the perfect time to explore how love can be a safe place to become more of who you are.

Last night, something ordinary happened that felt extraordinary. I was on the couch with a book I’d just started, my kid curled up next to me. We were eating pizza, nothing fancy, just one of those comfort meals that makes everything feel easy. The house was quiet, the air calm. And for a brief moment, everything felt just right. No striving, no planning, no fixing, just being.

It hit me then: this is beauty. Not the kind we post or polish. The kind we live. The kind that slips in quietly when we stop chasing and start noticing.

I thought about how often we miss it. We look for beauty in far-off places, in achievements, in perfect scenarios. But this transit (this Venus-Chiron energy) reminds us that the deepest kind of love is often right here, in the overlooked, unfiltered moments.

There’s a gentle healing that happens when we allow ourselves to feel joy without conditions.

No “I’ll relax when…” No “I’ll be happy if…” Just here. Just now. And it’s in those moments we begin to rewrite the stories we carry, the ones that say we have to earn peace or prove our worth.

This conjunction asks us to soften the voice inside that says we need to be more or do more. It reminds us that healing doesn’t mean fixing everything; sometimes it just means being present enough to notice how good things already are.

If something makes your heart feel full (a glance, a quiet dinner, a book, a laugh) let it in. Let that be your medicine today. Let that be your love story.

Because beauty lives in the little things. And when we pay attention, we find that maybe we were never really broken, just waiting to notice how held we already are.
