What these two are about together
Feeling and the sore place. The pair the tradition associates most strongly with early care: what was missing, what was given inconsistently, and what a person does about it afterwards.
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
The hurt sits in the feeling function itself. Associated with strong instinct for what other people need and difficulty naming what you need yourself.
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
Moon: Need, instinct and what settles you
Chiron: The injury that does not close, and what it made you able to do
