What personal challenges might you face when an external situation prompts assertive action in a typically nurturing context, interacting with deeply rooted, transformative experiences in your life?

The transit of Mars in Cancer quincunx your natal Chiron in Scorpio is a time when your drive to protect and care may feel at odds with your deeper wounds and healing journey.
