Once a year Mercury forms a conjunction with Chiron, unless Mercury is retrograde and then it will form three conjunctions.   Such is the case in 2024.   On  March 20th Mercury joined Chiron, today (April 15th) it forms the second conjunction and finally on May 6th we have the last contact.     

Mercury rules communication and thinking.  It is quick.  It darts in and out of big and small hurdles.  A bit of this and a bit of that is Mercury's jam.   While it can get a bad wrap as being shallow, Mercury is capable of getting our attention, even super heavy stuff and then moves on.  Perhaps because Mercury flits is the very reason why the heavy can get our attention.   We do not feel overwhelmed but we do feel informed.   

Chiron is deep.   Think of a tooth ache deep.   A migraine headache deep.  A dream that makes you shake when you wake up deep.    Having Mercury contact Chiron is an opportunity for a message from our psyche (where Chiron likes to hang out) which may get our attention through a 'random' thought which is perfect Mercury.  

Take note if you have a thought today that is perhaps negative about a; person, place, memory, action or behavior.   It may be a fleeting thought but it could provide insight into your motivations.   Consider how that thought is baked into your impulses.   How is that fleeting thought informing why or how  you get fired up?    Is it buried in a wound?    Take note if your psyche is pondering the motives behind your actions.   

See if you think about it all again around May 6th.   

These thoughts can be the peroxide to our old wounds.
