Herbal Ally : YARROW

Unfinished healing around identity, independence, courage, self-worth, leadership, anger, rejection, and the fear of taking up space. Old wounds may resurface—not because we are going backward, but because we’re finally ready to deal with what previously controlled us. Examine those strange adaptations developed around wounds to agency. Pay attention to where we hesitate – is caution genuinely warranted, or are we waiting for permission ? This final passage (in our lifetime) of Chiron through Aries asks us to actively dismantle the distortions of cultural conditioning that live within us, and to step more fully into the truth of who we are.
We will be revisiting and having more opportunities to heal the wounds inflicted by the unevolved masculine : self-centredness, arrogance, the belief that might equals right, impatience, aggression, and ruthlessness. Notice situations in which we routinely shrink ourselves before anyone has asked us to. Recognise that aggression has become armour against the possibility of feeling powerless. Healing does not require becoming fearless. It requires learning that fear does not automatically get final authority over our decisions.
