Now, retrograde re-entry
Chiron in Aries, 2026
Chiron enters Aries on Friday 18 September 2026, 01:50 UTC, which is in your time zone, moving backwards. It leaves for Taurus on Wednesday 14 April 2027, 14:58 UTC, after 209 days. During this stay Chiron turns retrograde from 3 August 2026 to 6 January 2027.
Chiron moves back into Aries from Taurus at 01:50 UTC on 18 September 2026. It is retrograde at the time, so this is a re-entry into a sign it has visited before. Chiron stays in Aries for 209 days, until 14 April 2027 at 14:58 UTC, when it returns to Taurus. Its retrograde phase runs from 3 August 2026 to 6 January 2027.
The tradition treats Chiron as the wounded healer, a marker of old hurts and the understanding that can grow from them. Aries, a cardinal fire sign ruled by Mars, is associated with identity, courage and the urge to act first. Astrologers read this return as a chance to revisit questions of confidence and assertion before Chiron settles in Taurus. A modest suggestion: notice where you hold back from speaking up, and practice one small, honest statement.
