Chiron in Houses 7-12


Chiron is traditionally associated with the sign Virgo. This is because in mythology, Chiron was a healer. He was afflicted with a disease, and went searching for a cure. As a result of his search, he gained incredible knowledge of health and disease, and went on to teach others about his findings, but he, himself, was never cured. This is why Chiron is referred to as the “Wounded Healer.”

The placement of Chiron shows us the areas in which we deal with reoccurring problems, which began at childhood. It also shows us the area where we can teach others how to do things better than we can do ourselves.


Chiron in the 7th house

This is a prime indicator of someone whose parents are divorced, separated, etc.. Perhaps this affected you by developing a fear of rejection or abandonment. Regardless, you may give great advice on marriage.

Chiron in the 8th house

The 8th house rules sex and shared resources. You would make a great sex therapist, but may have issues in your own sex life. You may experience issues related to shared resources; you may be burdened with taking care of your and your partner’s finances, or perhaps your partner takes on this role, but doesn’t give you your fair share. Perhaps you are dependent on other people’s money, or you are burdened with supporting others with your own money.

Chiron in the 9th house

The 9th house rules travel, higher education, and religion. Perhaps you are a travel agent who books trips for others, but you cannot travel. Perhaps you push others to go to university, but never get the chance to, yourself. On the other hand, you may be obsessed with travel and study.

Chiron in the 10th house

The 10th house represents the career and one’s public image. Perhaps you feel as though you are taking care of everyone but yourself through your work. This placement is especially indicative of a career in the medical field. On the other hand, perhaps early childhood issues lead you to reject ambition and responsibility. Conversely, perhaps you are fanatical about getting ahead in your career due to a strong desire for status and success, stemming from the low self-worth you developed in your childhood.

Chiron in the 11th house

The 11th house represents friends, groups, and associations. Perhaps you feel uncomfortable in large groups, due to rejection from your peers during your childhood. Perhaps you have a difficult time “fitting in” with your peers. You may have difficult maintaining your friendships, or on the other hand, you may obsessively seek out friends to quell an inner sense of loneliness.

Chiron in the 12th house

You may spend more time helping out the less fortunate at the expense of your own needs. On the other hand, you may be overly needy due to reoccurring problems, perhaps related to health. You may have strong healing abilities, but may “hide” them due to an inner feeling of self-consciousness, or a compulsive need for privacy.
