PART 1: Understanding Chiron - Chironic Consciousness, Astronomy, Mythology
PART 2: Understanding Chiron
Welcome to Module 3!
This is a rich section with several parts. We will be delving into 'Chironic consciousness,' and the video teachings on Astronomy, Mythology, Psychology, and Astrology, are all designed to support you in gaining a more rounded understanding of what it means to work wth this aspect/archetype of yourself.
As you excavate limiting beliefs and uncover core wounds from your early years, it helps to know that there's a powerful ally you can rest on: Chiron. This is really an aspect of you, though it may have been buried and kept hidden as a 'shadow.'
Chiron is also a key to unlocking your TREASURE - your hidden gifts and talents. You just need to know where to look; turns out, your biggest gifts lie in your wounds. It's time to discover and reclaim your unique medicine!
PRACTICE
To integrate your learning in this module, please complete the following practices (60 minutes max):
1. To reinforce your learning, watch this short video which provides a well-animated, stylistic story of Chiron (13 minutes):
2. Let's get Mythical! Take some time now to write a mythology of YOU (20-40 minutes).
Pick an aspect of Chiron's story that resonates most for you (e.g. an early childhood wounding that you overcame, his role as teacher/mentor to heroes, or his compassionate sacrifice for another being), and free-write without censoring yourself.
This is a creative writing exercise that gives you an opportunity to reflect on your life by bringing in the archetype of Chiron the wise centaur. It can also take the form of a journal entry that offers you a chance to reclaim your narrative, i.e. by turning a challenging life event into an empowering one.
In doing this exercise, you are rewiring neural pathways in your brain, and forming new synapses as you actively make a personal connection with the mythological figure we are learning about. You may find that you develop a closer, more intimate connection with him by doing this practice.
3. Please share your story with us in our group chat! I'd also love to hear: What are you learning about yourself as you take authorship of your life narrative?
