Chiron-Jupiter-Pluto Fixed T-square - Radiant Astrology Blog | Lyssna här

I've just returned from two weeks in Ireland, and am still in the clouds over the experience. I've been to Ireland a few times before but this was my first journey through the southwest countryside by car, the roads of the Wild Atlantic Way hugged by lush green trees and then opening suddenly onto the sea. We explored holy wells that act as sacred repositories for prayers and wishes. We walked labyrinths tucked behind cathedrals and stood at the edge of Skellig Michael island where 6th century monks built a monastery out of rocks which still stands today.

Locals spoke of the old respect paid toward the fairies - for instance, how certain trees, believed to belong to them, are never to be disturbed, and how developers who ignored this, who cleared a fairy tree to make way for a road or a building, were said to end in disaster in ways no one could have anticipated.

Ireland has a way of reminding you that the veil between worlds is thin, and that the ancestors as well as the land itself remembers things we've long since forgotten. I've shared some of my photos on Instagram, and there is more of the journey still to tell in the weeks ahead.

In my last email, I delved into the recent ingress of Chiron in Taurus and since then we've had Jupiter, the planet of expansion, ingress bold Leo.

What can we make of the Wounded Healer in the sign of self-sufficiency and sensuality as it squares expansive Jupiter in fiery Leo? I think this is a moment better understood than simply felt.

Chiron in Taurus On June 19th, Chiron slipped into Taurus for the first time since 1984 — Taurus governs the material world: money, shelter, self-sufficiency, the values we live by and build our lives around. This is where old wounds around self-worth tend to surface — often the unconscious, inherited ones. The belief that safety must be earned. That rest is a luxury. That your value is measured by your output. Chiron in Taurus asks us to look at where those beliefs came from, and whether they were ever truly ours to begin with. The house Chiron is transiting in your natal chart will illuminate more about where this story is developing in your life.

Jupiter in Leo On June 30th, Jupiter moved into Leo, where it will stay until July 25th, 2027 — its first visit to this sign since 2014. After a year tending to emotional needs in Cancer, Jupiter now wants something entirely different: to be seen. This is a transit of creative confidence, generosity, and a willingness to take up space. Jupiter's gift is amplification, and right now, what it is amplifying actives the Chironic inner discomfort. The question this aspect poses is "what happens if I stop shrinking and shine my light?"

Pluto in Aquarius Meanwhile, Pluto continues its slow metamorphosis through the early degrees of Aquarius, where it has been steadily settling since November 2024 and will remain until 2043. Pluto moves achingly slowly, but its influence is anything but subtle. Pluto is flirting with a square to Chiron in Taurus (not exact until 2029 but within orb until then) and an opposition to Jupiter in Leo, forming a T-square in fixed signs. Pluto excavates anything we have built our sense of self on that was never load-bearing to begin with — outdated structures of identity, belonging, and power that fixed signs are, by nature, reluctant to release.

The Fixed T-Square Pattern This pattern is similar to a pressure system — three points holding a fixed tension, each one intensifying the others. Jupiter wants to boldly expand. Chiron holds the tender place where self-worth resides. Pluto insists that whatever emerges be authentic and serve the highest good. It is a demanding configuration, but a generous one too, if we let it do its work rather than resist it.

Scorpio: The Missing Piece What I keep returning to is this: transits like this rarely arrive to cause difficulty or punishment. They arrive to compel us to change, grow, and evolve. The particular wound, the particular fear of being seen, the particular structure asking to be released — these are old, and this sky is simply the moment they've chosen to come due.

In evolutionary terms, a T-square is a kind of pressure chamber, three points holding tension against one another until something that could not move on its own finally does. The empty fourth point of this configuration falls in Scorpio — the space where the crucible of inner power and determination lies. That absence is not a void. It is the center of gravity the whole pattern is quietly moving toward: a willingness to let the old wound complete its death, so that something truer can be born in its place. This is the soul's work, not the ego's. The ego wants comfort, or at minimum, predictability. The soul is not interested in either. It is only interested in becoming whole, and it will use whatever pressure is necessary to get there.

So if this season feels like more is being asked of you than usual — around what you're worth, what you're allowed to want, what you've been quietly protecting — trust that the asking has a purpose. Chiron wisdom teaches us that the medicine is within the wound.
