Hm, I think I mixed up something. Anyway, is it or can it be the same thing?

I've often heard it referred to similarly to the above links; there are legs and an apex.

I have one myself, natally; NEPTUNE-CHIRON-SUN, where CHIRON is the apex.

20º SAG | NEPTUNE
17º TAU | CHIRON
19º LIB | SUN

It's loose, mind, but definitely felt. Especially if VALENTINE is substituted for NEPTUNE.

Lets say a planet is squaring the nodes, the legs would be the nodes and the planet the apex and whatever opposes the planet is the release point.

Lets say we have venus sextile mars and the Sun is inconjuncting each, the legs would be venus and mars and the apex would be Sun, whatever opposes the Sun is the release point.

Hence the legs aspect each other but the third planet which aspects both the SAME way that is the APEX and whatever opposes that the release point.

The release point is always opposite the apex, right, H? So, in my case, it would be ... anything that's opposite CHIRON?

That's wild. Okay, so, my LILITH-MELPOMENE (0º), and his VESTA, which is 0º conjunct it. Then, interestingly enough, his ROSING -- which is a marker for anything having to do with TV; it's frequently seen in connexion with things of that nature. MELPOMENE (18), of course, is the Muse of Drama (Tragedy), specifically. It's also been related to psychotherapy, social work, and thriller. So, 'psychological thriller' is definitely in there among the energy. I also liked the 'embodiments of the highest intellectual and artistic benefits to man; potentially spiritual,' delineation.

Combine that with my boyfriend's ROSING? It seems like 'one-hour psychological drama' all the way.

But LILITH? I'm not sure how that figures into it. And his VESTA, actually. That one kinda gets me, too.

How could these apply to the 'release point' for my CHIRON?

WOW all that is at the release point huh? Lilith will only make a psychological thriller better, LILITH-MELPOMENE at the release point would let you get to the core of that chiron wound and captivate the audience as they view your film leaving them strongly feeling they can relate to it and perhaps having a cathartic healing encounter while watching it as they feel their souls being touched at a very deep level. That is just my hunch, I would want to watch that film/show created by a person with that YOD tbh.

Have you seeing Walking Dead and Shameless (USA version)? Those two shows make me think of that yod with that release point.

I'm familiar with both, actually, and I get exactly what you mean. And, thanks! Yes. Hunting Alice gets to the 'root' of many of humanity's deepest, darkest ills, delving into some of its most complex collective psychology. We explore sexuality (as well as through the lens of asexuality, and vice versa), murder, and its relationship to both sexuality and mental illness; what is sanity, morality, justice, the nature of reality itself, what society considers taboo versus acceptable, and why. Namely, the lengths to which one will go, or has to, when they finally meet their true, unvarnished nature. And, naturally, through the Alice themed lens, playing with a host of other thematic elements: Silence of the Lambs (with the Lecter/Starling dynamic), Jekyll and Hyde (the 'monster' within us all, and the dualism of human nature in that regard -- the internal war of 'good versus evil'), Phantom of the Opera, (the depth of obsession, its motivations, and the dangerous line between protege and psychological slave), and, completely unintentionally, the lead character has a personality very much like the newest Doctors of Doctor Who. Fitting, though, for a multidimensional being.

In terms of history, however, I'm also pulling directly from the personalities and experiences of Charles Dodgson and Alice Liddell, and their fascinating, multilayered, complex relationship. Much of popular culture (and history) only focusses upon the relationship in her youth, when she acted as a potent muse. But few have ever explored the natural trajectory of their relationship had it not been stunted by her family, due to his being 'beneath her station'. I also unconsciously pulled from the experiences and dynamics of William Masters and Virginia Johnson -- that got interesting. What a hornets nest there; I'm so glad that there's a series running now. Those two have fascinated me for a long time.

It's Plutonian to be sure; I can see now how LILITH is involved in the 'raw sexuality' way, and even asexuality, as the lead characters are both asexual.

I would LOVE to 'release' my CHIRON wound through this series. I've always suspected I might be doing that. But only if it really helps others to engage in deep cathartic experiences of their own, find empathy with the characters and their stories, and heal in their own lives. Then, it'll have done what I most desire for it.
