What these two are about together
Worth and the sore place. The tradition reads this as the aspect most concerned with whether a person believes they are wanted, and with what they do about believing they are not.
What a conjunction does
A conjunction is the tightest relationship in a chart: two planets sitting at effectively the same point in the zodiac, rising, setting and moving together. The tradition does not read it as good or bad on its own. It reads it as fusion. Whatever the two planets each govern stops being two separate concerns and starts being one, and it is often the placement a person is least able to see in themselves, because there is no distance from which to look at it.
How it reads
Value and the injury are the same subject. Associated with attraction to what is damaged, and with real skill at seeing worth in what others overlook.
In practice
Strongest of the five, and the most dependent on which two bodies are involved. A conjunction of two comfortable planets is usually experienced as a natural talent; a conjunction of two difficult ones is usually experienced as a single unavoidable subject that keeps coming round.
What to watch for
The absence of separation. Whatever these two do, they do at once, which makes it hard to tell which of the two is driving.
The two planets
Venus: Values, attraction and what you find beautiful
Chiron: The injury that does not close, and what it made you able to do
