The Asteroids Of Healing - STRAIGHTWOO Asteroids Meaning
This is a work in progress, but I wanted to group together some of the more ‘spiritual’ asteroids that may indicate in someone’s chart if there is a potential for spiritual/mystical healing, energy work or similar. Many of these also work in traditional medicine situations like nursing and surgeons.
Some of these asteroids do not show up in normal asteroid searches online, so you’ll need to copy and paste the numbers into your chart. Enjoy!

(7) Iris
Iris was the ‘rainbow’ Goddess, whose name has become synonymous with the coloured part of our eyes as well as providing the base of the word iridescence.
Iris was known as a messenger and communicator, so themes here can include psychic capability, oracular work or chanelling.

(10) Hygeia
was the goddess of good health and the daughter of the medicine-god Asklepios (Asclepius). Her sisters included Panakeia (Panacea= Cure-All) and Iaso (Remedy). Hygeia means ‘good health.'
Asteroid Hygeia is about medical concerns and health (especially issues related to fitness); “hygiene” and cleanliness. According to , Hygeia is involved in maintaining ‘health through right living with nature.' I tend to see this as an asteroid that can also talk about naturopathy, Ayurvedic healing, homeopathy or other natural/alternative healing methods

(158) Koronis
Koronis was the one-time lover of Apollo as well as the mother of the healing lineage that included Asclepius and his sons Makhaon and Podalirius. Interestingly, she is also the mythical reason why all crows are black.
Robert Graves suggests that the myth of Koronis represents the suppression of medical practice by women and its transference into the hands of the patriarchy (in the myth, Apollo cuts open Koronis to remove the baby Asclepius). From this time, physicians were called asclepiades and the profession was passed only from father to son.
◊
(432) Pythia
Pythia was the original ‘oracle at Delphi’: a seer, clairvoyant, prophet and all-around psychic power. Asteroid meanings tend to be the same: someone with psychic or prophetic faculty.

Aescualpia is the Roman equivalent of Aslcepius, so all the same rules apply.

Being a slow learner—attraction of recurrent and familiar crises; “banging your head against a brick wall.

Panacea was the Greek goddess of cures and panaceas. She worked with her father, the medicine-god Asclepius. Hygeia (Good Health) was her sister, interestingly. Other sisters included Iaso (Remedy) and Akeso (Healing), but there are no asteroids for them.

◊
(3063) Makhaon
Makhaon was the brother of Podalirius and son of Asclepius.
Asteroid Makhaon is more likely indicative of a surgeon or traditional doctor, broken bones, and extracted items. By myth, he was a military surgeon, so there can be a military or aid link. Some astrologers use Makhaon as a timing factor for surgeries.
◊
(4086) Podalirius
Podalirius was one of the sons of Asclepius and brother to Makhaon. Like Makhaon, he was skilled in the medical arts, although gives him extra signifigance in saying he was 'god of internal diseases and invisible wounds to the soul.'
Asteroid Podalirius may involve medicine, medical treatment and internal disease.

(4581) Asclepius
Asclepius was the Greek god of medicine. Asclepius was the son of Apollo and princess Koronis. His mother died in labour and when she was laid out on the pyre, Apollon cut the unborn child from her womb. From this Asclepius received his name which means "to cut open." Asclepius was raised by the who instructed him in the art of medicine. He grew so skilled in the craft that he was able to restore the dead to life (using drops of Medusa’s blood which was given to him from Athena). This was a crime against the natural order and so Zeus destroyed him with a thunderbolt.
Asteroid Asclepius can have the following meanings: doctors, nurses, medicine, shamanism/shamanic healing (bring people back from the dead), prophetic dreams, being a ‘healer.'

(4946) Askalaphus
Askalaphus was one of the ‘son of styx’ that worked in the Underworld in service to Hades (Pluto). He is best known for declaring that Persephone had eaten the pomegranate seeds, which confirmed that her sexual awakening and inability to move freely above ground. As punishment, Demeter (Ceres) turned him into a screech-owl.
says ‘the ability to be silent or discreet, being indiscreet, informing, making trouble, bringing about transformations, being looked upon with dismay, apprehension or revulsion, and also medical attention and things pertaining to doctors or medicine’ are related to asteroid Askalaphus, as well as ‘health-care workers and informants.'
