At 12:36 PT, the Sun forms a healing and encouraging trine to Chiron, shining a gentle yet powerful light on the places within us that crave understanding, acceptance, and growth. This isn’t the kind of healing that forces you into hard lessons, it’s the kind that feels like a warm hand on your shoulder, reminding you that you’re allowed to evolve in your own time.

The Sun trine Chiron brings clarity to identity, life purpose, and personal healing themes, making it an ideal day to study your birth chart. Insights arrive with compassion rather than judgment, and self-understanding feels constructive instead of overwhelming. This transit highlights both your strengths and your wounded gifts, offering a perfect lens for exploring your path, patterns, and soul-level intentions.

This morning, I found myself reflecting on a quote that feels especially relevant under today’s energy: “Growing old is mandatory, but growing up is optional.” Walt Disney had a way of capturing something real with such simple words.

As I sat with that line today, I realized how often we confuse “growing up” with becoming hardened, overly responsible, or disconnected from play. But what if “growing up” actually means holding onto the spark that makes life feel magical? What if maturity includes wonder, not just responsibility? Under the Sun–Chiron trine, this perspective felt like an unexpected gift, like being reminded of something I used to know instinctively.

I started thinking about moments in my life when my inner child felt loud, those times when I was silly, curious, unguarded, or hopeful for no logical reason.

Somewhere along the way, life tried to convince me that seriousness equals strength. But every time I touch back into that childlike part of myself, I remember that resilience often comes from joy, not just survival. Healing, too, can come from remembering who we were before we learned to be cautious.

This transit shines a light on the places where we’ve abandoned our own softness. Sometimes without noticing. Sometimes because we thought we had to. But Chiron whispers that your innocence isn’t immaturity, it’s wisdom that hasn’t been dimmed. And the Sun amplifies that reminder today, helping us see the parts of ourselves that deserve to be reclaimed, not corrected.

And maybe, just maybe, the magic we had as children isn’t something we lost, it’s something we’re finding our way back to.
