In Alignment with Anna Guo

[ENG] EP 0.3.0｜Self “Incident Review”: Chiron, Trauma, and Lìchūn 立春

In this episode, I borrow a concept from software engineering — incident review — to look at trauma, conflict, and healing through timing, symbols, and lived experience. As this episode drops, we’ve just entered Lìchūn 立春 (Feb 4th), the Start of Spring in the traditional solar calendar, a moment when systems reboot quietly, before visible change. In this episode: * “Incident Review” as a self-reflection framework * Agenda: narrative & learning * Goal: blameless understanding * ♈️ Aries — Don’t pick the wrong fight * ♓️ Pisces — Where boundaries are required * Why now? Timing & coincidence * Colleagues moving between past and present companies * Unexpected reunions on BART * Chiron in Aries * Trauma, identity, and agency * Victim / perpetrator / healing * What healing actually asks of us
