I hadn't included aspect lines to Chiron in my natal chart and after doing so, feel a fool for disrespecting Chiron, my chart, and astrology in general. I discovered a Feminine Earth/Water Mystic Rectangle which, the more I read about its structure, the more it seems to make (some) sense. Although I was not cheered to see a third, red opposition line (Pluto and True Node opp. Chiron), the Rectangle gives me a fuller picture (duh) and is helping me feel less stymied about the two t-squares which have oppositions cluttering up the empty "fourth leg" houses where t-square solutions might be found. Here's my chart:

For one thing, I no longer despair so very much about Neptune (delusional dissolver) opp. Sun (10 H self-expression) because the Pluto-Neptune sextile now makes sense, shows the urge for authenticity. (I stuck with therapy for some years and worked hard to "figure things out", facing and finally owning (integration) my unloved Dark Side. When I think back on my first 40 years of psychic confusion and frustration . . .)
I'm fond of the Sun-Pluto trine, have always felt its intensity one way or another. Because of new insight into the abovementioned Pluto-Neptune sextile, am able to pay better attention to the (positive) spiritual/creative aspects of Neptune instead of fixating so much on Neptune's dissolving, self-delusional effects. Chiron (wounding and efforts to heal wounds) in Pisces in 7H Aquarius trines Neptune, and here again the play of energies around the Rectangle's structure of trines and sextiles is making some sense. (Except I have a question about the Nodes.) The teeter-tottery tensions within the Rectangle are the two oppositions, and here is where the Node question(s) come(s) into play: I think I understand that Pluto conj. North Node indicates intense, regenerative striving to attain balance (confidence coming from integration) in succesfully navigating 1H-7H (interpersonal boundary) issues -- but what does it mean when Pluto conj. North Node opposes Chiron conj. South Node? I keep re-reading Celeste Teal and CafeAstrology and my head is spinning.
The Chiron conj. South Node - Pluto conj. North Node opposition occurs on the 1H/7H relationship axis (self-others) prompts me to note that, regarding marriage/partnerships, I have been happily and solidly married for 21 years, and that my husband is the Blessing of My Life. Unfortunately I've told him this and he agrees with me (he's a charming Aries -- so self-confident). He thinks I'm the only girl for him and we both are pretty amazed at what we've made of our marriage. It was my husband's love that began my healing and made possible my journey out of darkness and confusion.
I could be wrong, but that being the case, I think the tnsions are more "self and others" instead of self and other (husband/partner)?
The definitions I've found for the Mystic Rectangle say ". . . work with the trines and sextiles to find the point of integration for the two oppositions . . ." and unfortunately it's left at that. How does one find this "point of integration", a starting point for doing the work required to achieve balance?
Thanks.
