Today, Mercury conjuncts with Chiron, creating a powerful space for healing through words, truth, and inner clarity. This transit invites us to speak from our wounds, not to reopen them, but to understand them. It’s a day to acknowledge the quiet places within that still ache, and to begin mending them with honest communication and compassionate awareness. Mercury and Chiron together say: healing isn’t just personal, it’s relational. And sometimes, what we express (or hold back) reveals where we still need to be seen, heard, or released.

With Mercury and Chiron meeting in the sky, your birth chart becomes a mirror for your healing journey. It can reveal the wounds you carry, the voices you’ve inherited, and the paths to your deepest transformation. Today is a potent time to uncover your inner story, understand your patterns, and begin speaking your truth, gently, bravely, and with love. The chart doesn’t just show who you are. It reveals who you’re becoming.

Today I found myself deep in thought, about love, endings, and what it really means to care for someone. There’s a common idea that love is the finish line, the prize we reach after all the work. But what if love isn’t the destination? What if love is the path itself?

This thought unraveled gently: that maybe love is about hoping for the other person’s fullest expansion, even if that version of them grows away from us. Even if they become who they were always meant to be without us beside them.

There’s grief in that, of course. But also grace. A grace that says: “I love you enough to want the best for you, even if I’m not part of it.” That kind of love doesn’t cling. It lets go with hope, not resentment.

And that’s the energy of Mercury conjunct Chiron. It’s the realization that sometimes we help people grow, not by staying, but by stepping away. And that healing can happen not only after love, but through it. By letting love guide us, not control us, we become better, freer, fuller.

I remembered relationships where it was the separation that sparked growth. Where space created healing. Where walking away wasn’t the absence of love, but a deeper version of it. That truth isn't easy, but it’s honest. And today invites us to sit with that kind of honest love.

This is the medicine of this transit: releasing the idea that being together is the only proof of love. Sometimes, the most loving act is saying goodbye, while still wishing them the very best.

And just maybe, as we learn to love that way, we also learn to love ourselves that way, hoping for our own becoming, even when it means leaving old versions behind.
