Interpretation
Saturn opposition Chiron pits self-limitation and structure against the pain of our psychological wounds. Essentially, we are either locking ourselves up in a straitjacket of responsibilities or we suffer pain and frustration related to repeated negative patterns. These patterns may have first been revealed in the relationship to the father or other parental or authority figure. However, the stiff upper lip approach to these issues is not going to bring resolution. People with this aspect will suffer much self-limitation and be unable to show their true nature until they confront their pain and deal with it. This will take time and effort, and will probably be difficult and frightening as it involves letting go of the security of control represented by Saturn. These people have to be willing to risk the disapproval of others (particularly the disapproval of the father or inner father image). Ironically, until they do this they will generally fall short of that approval despite their attempts to please due to the undermining effects of Chiron wounds.
