  • Heal Unconscious Patterns Through The Psychoastrology® of Chiron with Lisa Tahir, LCSW
    Jul 6 2024

    Podcast Host CJMiller sits down with Lisa Tahir, LCSW, to discuss her book, "The Chiron Effect: Healing Our Core Wounds through Astrology, Empathy, and Self-Forgiveness."

    According to Lisa, The purpose of The Psychoastrology® of Chiron is two-fold: The first purpose is to reveal the unconscious patterns sourced in the reader's core wounding. The second purpose is to learn how to heal those places through empathy and self-forgiveness.

    Chiron is a heavenly body with an odd elliptical orbit, first discovered in the 1970s. Although it was first called an asteroid and classified only as a minor planet with the designation "2060 Chiron" in 1989, it exhibited behavior typical of a comet. Today, it is classified as a minor planet and a comet named after a Greek Centaur known for the healing arts.

    Lisa combines the study of astrology with psychotherapy to review patterns in our lives that return repeatedly in different variations. According to Lisa, her process helps people heal those wounds. She explains that our thought patterns dictate our belief systems and actions.

    "We are like a mini solar system," she said. "We orbit things, and they orbit us, and we can shift those orbits to bring more joy in our lives."

    CJ asks Lisa to explain the three primary attachment styles: secure, anxious, and avoidant.

    These attachment styles are formed in our youth and are often carried throughout our lives. They are based on how we felt love when we didn't and the meaning we assigned to it. The early template of our relationships imprints on us and becomes a model for the future.

    Truly healing invokes forgiveness and compassion. Lisa shares a process of visualizing a younger self and walking them through forgiveness. Her book is an invitation to make small shifts in your behavior, thoughts, and belief systems.

    According to Lisa, we tend to have the same attachment style with prosperity and abundance as we do with our inner personal relationships. 23:16

    It reminds me of the chapter from my book called, "The Rule of Medium," but speaks to our human situation. Enjoy.
