Healing Isn’t Something You Can “Finish” (Yod between North Node, Chiron, and the Moon)
This week, I’m talking about the Yod forming on November 5, known as the Finger of God, and the idea that healing is part of being alive. We tend to think we should eventually be done with it. But we don’t expect to eat one meal and never be hungry again, or brush our teeth so well that we never have to do it again. So why do we expect to finish caring for the parts of us that get hurt?
The Finger of God this week is pointing at Virgo, bringing our attention to the physical body and our habits of caring for it. The gentle reminder from the Cosmos is that needing to heal again doesn’t mean we’ve failed. It means we’re still living. We’re very real. Very human.
But for so many of us, injuries feel like punishments. I have personally battled an autoimmune disorder since my twenties, among so many other things in this lifetime. And I admit, I have wondered, what did I do to deserve this? Always trying to connect the dots, to hold onto some form of control. If you can figure out what caused it, you think you have some sense of control. That you can un-cause it.
But what if our ability to get ill, get injured, and feel pain has something to do with what makes us real?
Maybe somewhere out there, these layers of consciousness can be measured the same way we measure heart rate and blood pressure. When our hearts break, we respond, and that's measured. When we get ill or injured, we respond, and that response is measured.
And maybe that response registers as proof that we are here, that we care, that we are experiencing this life. That we are human.
I don’t know. But I wonder whether that proof means something bigger than our injuries. That it may just be the ticket we would pray for to get into Eternity.
Sincerely,
Emily Klintworth

“Using Table 2 in my Natal Chart Navigator, look at my natal house cusps and determine which houses contain 28°34′ Virgo, 27°52′ Aries, and 26°51′ Aquarius. On November 5, 2026, the Moon in Virgo, Chiron in Aries, and the North Node in Aquarius form a Yod, with the Moon as the point of the triangle. Moon 28°34′ Virgo | Chiron 27°52′ Aries | North Node 26°51′ Aquarius. Look at the houses involved, especially the house containing the Moon, and discuss how this alignment relates to healing as ongoing maintenance rather than something I should eventually finish. Specifically explore the aspects these three points make to my natal planets. Tell me what you think I need to be aware of, where I may be frustrated with myself for still needing care, and where I could be contributing to my own pain. Explore how I can take responsibility for caring for myself without expecting myself to be perfect. What might change if I understood my need for healing as part of being human rather than evidence that something is wrong with me?"
