Advent of the Centaurs
The Myths of Chiron and Pholus
In these two articles, Richard explores the archetype of the Centaur, and in particular the myths of Chiron and Pholus. As a symbol of the wounded healer inside each of us, Chiron points us towards our suffering as a means of unlocking our gifts – a central tenet of the Gene Keys.
