Maverick:

This was one of the earliest keys suggested for Chiron, and was originally derived from a statement from Dr. Brian Marsdon, of
the Smithsonian Institution Astrophysical Observatory. Dr. Marsden mentiioned the fact that Chiron most likely
originated from outside the solar system, and would one-day leave us again, and is therefore, a Maverick. Many people do not really understand the meaning of this word and tend to confuse it with words like rebel and even revolutionary. When they do this naturally they assume that Chiron is just another version of Uranus but maverick does not mean rebel. Maverick is one who takes a stand apart from other members of his group yet does not necessarily try to get others to change to  his views he is not for or against any group to whatever area the Maverick sideshows. A rebel on the other hand directly opposes some group or authority even to the point of open disobedience.  Usually with the intention of causing some type of the major change in the group structure. The easiest way to understand the term maverick is to think of Chiron's placement in between Saturn [the authority, the established group and its rules] and Uranus [the rebel the revolutionary the individual who openly breaks away from the system.] So Maverick does not wear any brand to say he can be labeled as following the group ideology yet at the same time does not carry the banner of a protest against said ideology. Maverick follows his own course although he soon may discover that he attracted followers along the way.
