In this solo episode, I'm sharing some aha moments from my healing journey - the fact that (long before I even knew it) astrology initiated my trauma healing journey.
Trauma can be as simple as not having your needs met. It is something that shouldn't have happened and did, or something that should have happened and didn't. Through repeated triggering of the same pattern, we become easily dysregulated, meaning that our nervous system wreaks havoc on our physical body and creates inflammation, stress, high blood pressure and other disharmonious states. Not only does our mind & body suffer, but our relationships do too.
As a natal Cancer Chiron, one of my biggest wounds that has been tested over and over again is abandonment & rejection. Because my authenticity wasn't truly accepted or encouraged for a large portion of my life, and because I learned to seek harmony above all else - I tend towards the fawning or people pleasing coping strategy.
What I didn't realize was that this was directly related to my natal astrology, and that it also held the answer on how to initiate the healing process. To be clear, trauma healing is a multi-step process, and I am not claiming that astrology is the sole modality responsible for healing. However, it has been is an incredible way to understand how to resource myself to regulate my nervous system. This is the crucial first step to this journey.
NOTE: Although I am trauma-informed in my work, I am merely speaking from my personal and client experience. I am not a Psychiatrist or Dr - and do encourage you to get professional help if you feel called to.
At the end of the day, astrology is a powerful tool to use alongside other healing modalities to teach you about yourself, your patterns, coping strategies, and ways to self-resource.
