Upon its discovery, Chiron was named for the centaur in Greek mythology who, despite being a healer to others, could not heal himself, notes CafeAstrology. (Case in point: My dad, who was my first mentor, began studying astrology in 1969, almost a decade before the comet was noted by Kowal, and therefore, it didn't come up at all during my own introduction to astrology.) So astrologers who've been studying for decades - or whose mentor was soaking up their own core knowledge pre-Chiron - might opt not use it in their chart or predictive readings. There's a reason you might do a reading with a pro astrologer or read your horoscope all the time and still never come across a mention of Chiron: The comet, which sits between Saturn and Uranus, was only just discovered by American astronomer Charles Kowal in 1977.
