sun square nodes
it's not always easy to see where you're going in life. with this square your fate is most likely quite unclear - at the moment, anyway. the path is lit in strange colors at odd angles. you may only be able to see the step directly ahead of you. just go bit by bit and trust that the light will change soon enough.

Everyone has a different journey.  We may not like how some people choose to live, but exploring their natal chart can often give insight into what the soul is trying to achieve in this life, beyond our expectations.
The house placement will give us even more details about the focus in this life.  For Rahu in the houses, in addition to reading the zodiac sign the Node is in, also read the corresponding house. 
Rahu in Aries or 1st House- In the last life, the native mastered relationships (Libra) and was likely focused on keeping the peace, balance and harmony, even to the point of being too agreeable and neglecting the needs of self.  Perhaps there was much sacrifice for others, and it was never appreciated.  In the beginning of this life, the native may be born into a family that adheres to social norms, so the native learns to be agreeable per said norms, never acknowledging or considering their own desires.  In this life, the native is meant to chart their own course, be assertive and independent.  A common theme with this placement is a tendency to become co-dependent with others and easily become the extension of a group or partnership.  Rahu in Aries will be confronted with this tendency by experiencing people (friends, social groups and network circles), even family members who reject them.  Whenever they try to work in partnership or even in marriage, the native may realize that the other parties are not considering the native and the native’s needs.  The underlying reason for these situations occurs to push the native in the direction of Aries. The native is here to learn to rely on their own advice, be independent and perhaps become a pioneer in the house where Rahu sits.
Rahu in Libra or 7th House- The exact opposite of Aries, in that in the last life, the native focused entirely on themselves (Aries) and the objective was to achieve success with their own efforts.  In this life, the native is likely born into a family where they are encouraged to be themselves and respected for doing so, however there may be a point where the native realizes that anything they wish to achieve in life seems to come to them ONLY when working with others.  In the beginning of life, the native may struggle with relationships- people may call them selfish and egotistical.  That is because the native is coming from a life where they needed to focus on self and being independent.  Now, the native will likely seek identification of the self through other people.  Depending on the Lunar Mansion placement, this may result in affairs or constantly going from relationship to relationship in a variety of ways (love life, business partnerships, etc.) Regardless of the tendency, the native needs to learn how to focus on the other person and that person’s needs to earn trust and build a lasting relationship.  They will likely struggle with this, as the comfort zone is in thinking solely of the self. Learning to compromise and consider others will be a major theme.
Rahu in Taurus or 2nd House- This position is opposite to the original 8th house, also known as Scorpio.  In the past life, the native indulged in deep transformations, hidden side of life (or occult) and benefited from investigative studies and research and perhaps joint assets from in-laws.  In this life the goal is to experience wealth, asset accumulation, stability and perhaps the sensual side of life and materialism based on hard work and their own efforts.  Rahu has an airy nature, so most astrologers believe Rahu does the best in earth signs like Taurus and Virgo.  The earth signs offer a place to keep the energy grounded, that is if the native can learn to harness the energy of the sign and create that balance.  The native may choose to keep their wealth and values secret due to past experiences with others.  Rahu in Taurus tends to make the native feel ostracized by the family.  Scorpio can sting its perceived enemies and this behavior from the family and others will likely force the native to come into their own and push them to build wealth and create an identity on their own. In the first half of life, the native may have self-destructive tendencies when it comes to handling money and relations, resulting in drug experimentation or clandestine affairs.   Scorpio is a very powerful energy, but the native has already mastered this side of existence and is here to create their own values, and in a practical manner, experience the material world, pleasure and learning wealth accumulation.  This native may bring past life experiences of domination and control over others to help achieve his or her means.   
Rahu in Scorpio or 8th House- The native in the past life came from a more grounded, methodical way of experiencing wealth and even likely enjoyed a sensual existence, and yet, this time around the native is looking to explore the inner depths of the soul and to perhaps awaken the kundalini energy within.  Scorpio is the point where the soul is embarking on transcending the material world.  But is the native ready? They might be accustomed to being more logical and in a prior life they were likely stubborn with wealth, assets and their values.  Perhaps this person was born into a family with such restrictions and norms.  The native likely feels an expectation from society or the family to be a certain way in terms of moral values and handling money.  The native needs to express their sexual nature and face their inner demons, yet this may create a problem as exploring themselves in this way will likely be uncomfortable for the individual. Scorpio is deep transformative waters, so the native may oscillate between obsession, possession and dissatisfaction in the area of love and commitment.  Masturbation or even pornography in secret will likely help the native open up to exploring this shadow side of themselves and they may even explore through many affairs.  At some point, the native may spiral into alcohol or drugs to cope with the dystopia or the cognitive dissonance within, however, the goal is to channel the sexual energy and need to control in a manner that serves the higher good to awaken the divine within.   
Rahu in Gemini or 3rd House- This native likely comes from a past life that was about high morals and religious principles, dharma and seeing the bigger picture, so in this life this might have brought them into a family that was attached to dogma or strict doctrine and ways of seeing the world.  If not super religious, perhaps the family is simply about larger causes that perhaps inspired the native to think about morals and values, neglecting to consider their own thoughts and self-expression, because the family kept the native focused on their duty.  The native likely moved to a far away place with the parents or the parents moved from somewhere else where the native had to assimilate into a new place and/or culture.  The goal here with Rahu is to be inquisitive and question everything or even venture out from the family’s shadow and communicate their needs beyond the higher good or dharmic path that the native felt compelled to follow through the family or parents.  The native may come across as adventurous and judgmental to others.  A difficult relationship with the father or an absent father could lead the native to question their beliefs.  Gemini is about duality so this also may lead the native to explore and communicate what is outside of the high morals and values they were raised with via education, relationships, love affairs and culture to come to a new realization about their own values and identity. 
Rahu in Sagittarius or 9th House- In reverse to Gemini, this native may have had a difficult relationship with the siblings in a past life.  If not due to the interactions with the siblings, it could be the native feels they were treated differently or loved less by the parents in this life.  The native may have been ridiculed or felt different or unique with neighbors or family growing up and, finally, at a certain point in life, Rahu leads the native to chart their own path in terms of their beliefs and higher calling.  This may be a very different path and belief system from the family, especially the father.  This position could lead to manipulation of others in the realm of spirituality and religion.  The native will use its past ability to sway others through expression and communication that will convince people of their position concerning morals and dogma, which is often created due to resentment of past experiences with religion, family or community that made the native feel ostracized.  Rahu in Sagittarius or the 9th House can lead to innovation and highly advanced methods to view society and inventions that help that world, but it is also the placement of many cult leaders.  
Rahu in Cancer or 4th House- In a past life, the native did very well with responsibility and this likely will manifest as one who is taking on responsibilities at a young age.  It is likely that they were very dedicated to hard work and taking care of people to experience personal gain or recognition, almost as if they treat it all like a career or the workplace, since it was in career and public image that they have already mastered in the past life since Rahu is now in Cancer.   They likely did not receive emotional love and support from the mother or the family, so how does one learn to balance emotions in this life? This makes their journey complicated as Rahu can create illusion and unrationalized fear on the Moon, which rules Cancer. The Moon represents the Mind and the Mother.  This life is about seeking comfort, happiness, and peace of mind. The native has to learn to acknowledge emotions and then to balance them.  The native might experience a family in this life that is all about work and personal achievements.  The South Node in Capricorn (the opposing sign) here will create emotional instability in life as the native seeks to stay comfortably in this mode, creating disturbance within the mind and emotional state.  The native, therefore will need to seek spirituality or ways to balance emotions that are different from the achieve at all costs mindset they were likely raised with.  These natives also have to learn to enjoy life and the fruits of their labor.  Learning to take a vacation or to find time to relax and be home will often be the lesson they learn. 
Rahu in Capricorn or 10th House- In reverse to Cancer, these natives were likely raised in comfort or perhaps had a close or complicated relationship with the mother.  They were also likely people pleasers and did most things the mother thought would be best growing up.  In the past life and at the beginning of this life, they were likely very nurturing, caring and loving, also sensing the needs of the family and at times, neglecting their own needs.  This might make the native very intuitive and able to sense the feelings and motives of others in relationships and their surroundings.  In this life, Rahu is leading the native to focus on their own needs and to get recognition for their deeds and contributions through work and career.  Rahu will pull the native towards manifestation and achieving success and wealth, luring them away from complacency and complicated family dynamics at home and their own emotions.  The key with this position becomes focusing on achieving goals and utilizing the gift of intuition in the workplace and career, not expecting people to have the care and concern that the native does. 
Rahu in Leo or 5th House- In the past life, you were extremely committed to your friends, social networks, masses of people and social groups.  Perhaps your efforts were not appreciated, and you maneuvered in ways to please the masses and others by making sure you were politically correct in order to be liked or accepted by others.  You likely had great ideas that helped others greatly.  You also likely experienced abundance from networking and your connections.  Being placed in Leo, Rahu seeks to find identity and fulfillment through romance and progeny (children).  In this life, it is about embracing your own identity, creative pursuits and standing in your own power through leadership, political interests, business or by focusing on education and building wealth in your own unconventional way- this might lead to an interest in speculative gains through stock trading and risky investments.  You were likely concerned about higher causes and everyone else in your last life so this will likely manifest in this life as a childhood full of non-accepting or awkward friendships where you are made fun of and ridiculed for being different.  Rahu has a complicated relationship with the Sun so this might manifest as an issue with the father or even children and romantic partners.  Not feeling accepted within the family or perhaps experiencing aloof parents or friendships where attention is limited leads you to try again with your love life and to get on with your own immediate family (i.e. children) and business/creative pursuits. 
Rahu in Aquarius or 11th House- As Leo’s opposite, in the past life, you were the center of attention and the leader in most situations.  You likely mastered raising children and expressing yourself through politics, career and in your love life to some degree.  However, disapproval of your quirkiness and ideas by family, lovers and father in this life, may lead you towards Rahu where you are inexperienced.  In the last life, you were a wizard in business or generating wealth and learning on your own efforts.  In this life, you need to convince others to accept your ideas and learn the art of networking and connecting with other people, releasing your ego in order to serve the masses and your social networks.  These people were likely used to being the center of attention or even the only child when they were growing up, so sharing the spotlight with others might pose as a challenge in the first half of life.  They are excellent teachers and extremely knowledgeable.  Rahu representing what is foreign or different will likely try to use this knowledge of the past in an unconventional way to bring a more “New Age” philosophy or invention to the world.
Rahu in Virgo or 6th House- Virgo being the natural 6th house of debts, disease, enemies and obstacles means that this native is here to embrace and learn a more practical approach to life.  You may be raised in a more free-spirited and spiritual environment where you are loved and embraced as you are at home.  These natives in a past life have already experienced spiritual experiences and merging with the subconscious so they may enjoy solitude and living in their own ideal imagination and reality.  They likely grew up exploring the secrets of the hidden side of life and the universe or even traveled to faraway places with parents or family live or to explore divinity.  Idealism is the struggle of these natives.  Bringing that to partnerships, marriage and the workplace may be the cause of problems in their life.  Learning to work hard and experience competition and criticism in the workforce as well as obstacles in health and debt is what the goal is in this life.  This is considered one of the best placements for the North Node.  The native needs to learn to bring their past life ability to connect to the Source through calming techniques like meditation or yoga to find the balance in their relationships and professional life.  This may lead to using intuitive abilities or unconventional healing methods to help serve in healthcare, or work with animals or the underprivileged. 
Rahu in Pisces or 12th House- In reverse of Virgo, this native is likely born in a very technical and highly educated family and community.  Perhaps you were the person born in the family of doctors or healthcare providers, and yet, your family cannot understand your obsession with spirituality or foreign places and isolation.  Rahu is not exactly comfortable in the deep shallow waters of Pisces so these natives will likely struggle with being overly critical of themselves due to past wounds from loved ones or an obsession with their health and routine.  The first half of life might bring a lot of challenges in the practical or material world but having the North Node in Pisces means that Ketu, the South Node will likely bring dissatisfaction with the material, eventually making one turn to solitude and spirituality.  This could manifest as an interest in expressing one’s subconscious through creative pursuits like being a magician, practicing tarot or other forms of spirituality or even lead to alcoholic and drug abuse to cope with the unexplainable experiences in the spiritual realms or dreams. 
Namaste…

A quick info(?) to understand dynamics:
Venus, Jupiter and Sun are abundant and giving.
The rest of the planets are receptive in one way or another.
Saturn receives and limits/crystalizes
Mercury receives and manipulates
Ketu receives and absorbs completely
Rahu receives and projects outwardly
Moon receives gives back the smoothed mixture of what it recieved
Mars receives and builds/protects.
Out of these, Mars and Rahu look active, but they are not energetically abundant. Mars can sometimes be tho, depending on how much of the energy is left in them, but it's still not giving, it's protective.
The three giving plantes do not give in the same way either.
Venus only gives to whom and what it considers worthy but then, when it chooses, it gives its all.
Jupiter gives to everyone and everything, especially to those who it thinks need it most.
The Sun does not give out of love or dependency per se, but it's natural for it to spread its influence, like the Sun can't help but shine its rays on everyone and everything, without encouraging exchnage(like with Venus) or dependancy(Jupiter).

One thing the North Node in Aries and South Node in Libra has been getting me to see is “boundaries” aren’t really about how many people you can shut out, or how quick you can be to shut someone out at the first sign that they could maybe be problematic. I’ve lost out on many opportunities to learn from people and to receive love or support, doing this in my past.
No, healthy boundaries are something you have to be willing to work on within relating. By all means, if someone clearly purposely screws you over, turn your back on them and never look back. But if you’ve been taken advantage of a lot in the past, you might be prone to seeing potential toxicity someone will bring into your world, where it doesn’t actually exist.
I’ve learned that pushing away people before even actually learning what they’re about is not a flex. Also I’m no longer worried about being open to someone who turns out to have tendencies I can’t be around. Because I’m now confident that I can utilize boundaries other than just never letting anyone into my world in the first place. (And I had to be willing to be open to interacting with more people again to even be able to practice this.)
What a lesson truly synthesizing Aries and Libra. My boundaries these days are starting to feel so much more productive for me and I’m grateful. 🙏

Capricorn north node & Cancer south node analysis:
Tumblr media
Your destiny point: independence, happiness, growing into responsibility and authority, leaving a legacy in your work. Learning to trust yourself and embrace your ambitions. Be unapologetic, the family doesn’t own you anymore.
What you have to overcome: feeling an extreme lack of safety. Nobody saves you except you. Authority issues
Childhood: ** trigger warning, talk of emotional abuse
Individuals with this placement didn’t have a positive family experience as a child. One or both parents were often very emotionally and mentally abusive, forcing these individuals to always be in a state of “reading the room” for hints of unpleasant emotions because the family was so volatile. In addition, this placement is rebellious and often times they are THE MOST rebellious when everything is fine in their life and they are feeling safe. It really is behavior that was engrained in childhood. It’s very hard for these individuals to understand that things can be fine and safe and not feel like the floor could fall out at any minute. As a child, they probably felt a tad bit uncomfortable with feelings of security, happiness, and joy because as quickly as those wonderful feelings happened, they were quickly destroyed by an abusive family member.
<tarot observation> pulling The Moon in a “fears” placement of a spread
May have also struggled going to school because school was full of strangers and the individual couldn’t read their surroundings often thinking the worst before school. May have also been bullied because of issues with the family (strict, overtly religious, not religious, black sheep family.) the home environment is definitely a dichotomy, because they hate to be there but don’t want to leave.
When getting in trouble, this placement will over explain their side because in the childhood home, mistakes had to be so justified and reasoned to survive.
In the song, “Living the Dream” Sturgill Simpson sings, “Living the dream makes a man want to scream” reminding me of this placement. Also, Big K.R.I.T’s song “Mixed Messages”
May have an angel like appearance. People tend to fight over this child.
Adult:
Tumblr media
Despite a tough childhood, this placement is actually very ambitious and successful and will work tirelessly to build a home full of safety and comforts, but it’s a double edged sword because when it’s too quiet or too happy, individuals will replay their parents, feeling a need to disrupt the peace and change something or leave causing emotional abuse to those around them. Individuals with this placement need to learn they don’t have to leave and they don’t always have to feel included. They can literally just be. a. person.
They often struggle with emotional identification and may borrow emotions from others, may even have imaginary friends as a child and into adulthood, because they would rather be together in a sad emotion than alone in one. This is why it’s so hard to stay peaceful with this placement because the cancer south node fills this individual with insecurity. It’s almost like with this placement safety doesn’t exist or felt rarely…. So why not act out?? Developing a strong sense of self will help this placement. Self discipline and self discovery needs to be learned.
Very gangster like qualities to this placement. This placement is probably a talented artist, writer, actor, executive, manager, politician, lawyer, professor, or in law enforcement.
***women with this placement may experience issues with male control from childhood into adulthood.
How to overcome:
Self actualization is key. A stable sense of self. Let the abusive family go. Cut contact. Know that the family can’t save you. Quit being pessimistic. Observe needed moments for a rebellious approach. Believe in a moral code that guides them in a good direction. This placement needs to let go of the pain and welcome the happiness that is available to them as long as they can stay away from the pitfalls of childhood and a rough start into adulthood. RECEIVE LOVE. Also, needs to stop being so critical of themselves and over explaining when they have messed up. Forgive oneself. Individuals need to understand that they are included within oneself and they belong to themselves. You are your own authority and you’re not always responsible for how someone feels. &&&& use the intuition required for survival in childhood as a strength in adulthood.
Also, know that there is room for you too ❤️

The Difference Between Rahu and Ketu lies in the Element of Fear.
Tumblr media
Ketu is fearless. Its wisdom lies in minimalism, and knowledge that this Universe relies on patterns and thus you will never lack anything forever. As a result, there is no fear of loss in that area, through subconscious awareness that areas of Ketu house will certainly manifest again even after heavy losses. As a result, because of such an open energetic flow, manifestations occur even more easily.
Rahu is fearful. Rahu is where we gorge, because we act as if every second could be our last. Rahu has a "do or die" mentality, pursuing its desire in intensity having root in anxiety. However, a refined Rahu has and advantage of complexity and finesse of form, when it turns anxiety into responsibility. A matured Rahu replaced fear with preparation, knowing how to provide oneself with what one desires through either creating the thing itself or opportunities for it.

Oh nothing, just thinking about the dragon symbolism tied to the nodal axis during the battle of Onigashima for like no reason.
Tumblr media
Kaidou is hyper focused on strength, absolute domination and pushing towards the future. Similar to the North Node, the Dragon’s head.
Whereas Momonosuke, due to a a twist of fate/time travel. Stumbled onto the artificial devil fruit. Artificially made to mimic Kaidou’s strength.
Contrasting Kaidou’s confidence, Momo is timid. Having to constantly build up strength/courage by focusing on the bygone power of his lunar lineage. Like the South node, the dragon’s tail. Momonosuke is tied to the past.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Discussing the lunar nodes without mentioning the Sun or eclipses…feels incomplete. Conveniently, the solar themed MC is here too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
By the end of this battle Luffy’s devil fruit awakens. Connecting him to Joy boy and Nika, the Sun God. Eclipsing Kaidou’s strength.
Tumblr media
When the Sun & Moon are eclipsed by the nodes of fate. They emerge from the belly of beast after a fierce struggle. Changed and (sometimes) more assured of their heroic journey.

Space Did Something Cool
youtube
So, not only are eclipses really cool, they also come up a lot in JttW adjacent Fandom, like LMK, for various reasons. One is because if Sun Wukong's non-cannonical children from the ancient fanfic that counts as literature, Journey to the South. They are Yuebei Xing (Lunar Apogee), Jidu (South/Descending Lunar Node), and Luohou (North/Ascending Lunar Node). I've known about these characters and these terms for a couple months, but I didn't quite grasp what things like the nodes were until I saw this. Red has a knack for explaining things, so I recommend giving this a watch if you're confused. Or if you aren't. Watch more of her content, is what I'm saying.

Random question. Which persona charts (or any other Astro placements) highlights a persons strengths, weaknesses, personal development, and path to self improvement?? Thank you
happy new year!!!
I loved your question, very interesting.
Persona chart that highlights a person's strengths
South Node Persona Chart (desc. Lunar Node Persona Chart)
The South Node or desc. Lunar Node is responsible for our strongest personality attributes, things we have already "learned", in a way, things we have mastered. it's our comfort zone, it's what we know how to do the most. that's why I mention that this part of the natal chart is the one that most represents our strengths, which are the characteristics strongly present in our personality. so, studying the South Node Persona Chart is a way to get to know this part of yourself more deeply.
for this very reason:
Natal placement
South Node
Persona charts that highlights a person's weaknesses, personal development and path to self improvement
North Node Persona Chart (asc. Lunar Node Persona Chart)
On the other hand, the North Node represents our lessons, the path we need to reach in order to evolve. It has everything to do with weaknesses, because they are points we tend to run away from, you may notice that usually you or someone you know may have a lot of difficulties with characteristics and even people of the sign that is in your / their North Node.
Midheaven / Medium Coeli Persona Chart
another point very much related to personal evolution and life path is the Midheaven (or Medium Coeli), which has to do with life mission, where we will shine externally. Medium Coeli represents how we will show ourselves to people in society, public life. but for us to show ourselves to others in this more serious and concrete sense, it is important that we are following our life path. therefore, Medium Coeli also has to do with life path and mission and with what we will work to accomplish in the professional field, field which must be aligned with our personal mission.
Saturn Persona Chart
Saturn has everything to do with evolution and even maturity. it's the planet of learning and time. and we know that big and solid changes come with time. your natal Saturn (sign and house) shows where you have the most difficulties, where you may feel restricted, hindered, blocked, where it seems there is a weight or something demanding all the time. Saturn's natal placement is nothing more than the subject and the place where you need to develop your maturity, achieve structure and growth with solidity and responsibility. but achieving this is not always easy, then it is useful to understand what Saturn truly wants from us. Saturn wants discipline and responsibility, but not excessive rigidity. looking at the Saturn Persona Chart can help in discovering more parts of your lesson to be learned!
and for these reasons:
Natal placements North Node; Midheaven; Saturn

mars trine north node (sextile south node)
what happens today and perhaps tomorrow is DEFINITELY a harbinger of what is to come in a month's time and throughout the duration of mars's retrograde. mars retrograde is one of the rarest retrogrades we get, as it doesn't happen every year. let the omens tell you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear.

We have 3 planets in Scorpio rn (the Sun, Mercury, Mars) and I'm seeing way more graphic videos and somehow gruesome content about Gaza - imo it's not even a bad thing because you cannot comprehend how horrendous what's happening is without that and Zionists' lies are exposed.
Scorpio season is always about exposing more truth even if it's uncomfortable af, even if it's dark and raw and that's good that more and more people are realizing how what's happening in Palestine as a whole is far from normal - that's how you initiate actual changes.
Pluto squaring the Nodes for months (starting that intense journey back in march) and that aspect finally ending is also showing us all we have to do in order to not repeat the darkest times of history and how we can do better than that - we owe it to every oppressed group 🇵🇸❤️.
Also witnessing boycotts of major companies is very on brand for Scorpio energy (and it's nice to see the solidarity rn) : Scorpio won't ever support someone or something they hate, that is hurting their loved ones or that is evil generally speaking - and that's what the collective is experiencing rn.
Saturn is gonna station direct very soon (November, 4) and imo it could show even more mutual aid for palestinians, maybe actual international sanctions/that awaited cease-fire - just something actually working in order to save them and end that barbary we're witnessing.

Lunar nodes explained
The lunar nodes, also known as the North Node and South Node, are two points where the Moon's orbit intersects the Earth's orbit. In astrology, these points are believed to hold significant meaning and are used to gain insight into a person's life path.
The North Node represents the person's karmic path and future growth. It is associated with the traits and experiences that the individual needs to develop and embody in this lifetime in order to fulfill their destiny. The North Node represents the direction in which the person should aim to grow and evolve.
The South Node represents the person's past experiences, habits, and patterns. It is associated with the traits and experiences that the individual has already developed and embodied in past lives. The South Node represents the direction from which the person is coming from and can indicate areas in which they may need to let go of old patterns in order to move forward.
The sign and house placement of the lunar nodes in a person's birth chart can reveal important information about their life path and purpose. For example, a person with the North Node in the 10th house may have a destiny to achieve career success and public recognition, while a person with the South Node in the 7th house may need to let go of co-dependent relationships in order to move towards greater independence and self-reliance.
In addition to the natal chart, the position of the lunar nodes also changes over time, moving backwards through the zodiac in a cycle that takes approximately 18.6 years to complete. This cycle is known as the Nodal Return and is believed to bring significant changes and opportunities for growth in the areas represented by the nodes.

As an Aquarius North Node, my best female friend is an Aquarius Moon, and my best male friend is an Aquarius Sun. (Also basically the only friends I see besides my partner, and even he has an Aquarius Mars!) 🧐 ♒️
I’ll also note that Aquarius is my 12th house, but rather than feeling sus vibes with these friends (not for the most part) I feel that they have helped me along my path forward, just by having similar interests and/or being in a good position to appreciate the things I’m interested in doing in my life.
I think many people end up having a lot of significant chosen relationships in their life, perhaps increasingly so as they get older, with people with major planetary placements in the sign of their North Node.
On a not really directly related note, I also have a lot of thoughts about how the North Node is generally not something people need to be told to follow… when it naturally calls us, the head of the dragon can actually be very hungry. We get filled with a sense that it will bring us purpose or excitement, and it can- but sometimes that is only true up to a point. Honestly, Vedic astrologers seem to get it right that both Nodes have malefic qualities in our lives, and either can be overdone.
Likewise, the advice to move away from your South Node doesn’t seem generally helpful. The South Node can be a trap, but it’s my observation that the “comfort zones” it can keep us stuck in often actually don’t feel entirely comfortable, or comfortable at all; it feels like it can be more of an unchosen safety zone, that people are often already aware they don’t really want to be in, but can fall back hard on, especially in times of stress. Therefore, people might already have frustration or shame with the realms of their South Node (the unconscious past), and telling them they need to move away from it probably isn’t what they need to hear. We need to find some way to embrace it and allow it to guide us into pastures extending beyond it.
Integrating the past with the path forward (the nodal axis) I am inclined to believe is one of the hardest challenges of any lifetime; the houses seeming like the hardest part. Maybe I’m just biased with my Moon square my lunar Nodes. But I have observed with multiple other people, how this is a challenging journey unfolding over a lifetime, one in which balance is what is needed, but where it is also particularly challenging to achieve. When either lunar Node has a current strong focus in an individual’s life, it seems that it’s liable to come at expense to the realms of life in the house (possibly sign too) of the other Node.
Anyway, I was originally just planning on making this a quick shout out to/observation about my pals with their luminaries in my North Node sign, that came to me during this Aquarius Moon transit. 💚🐲 But happy to have gotten out some of these other thoughts about the lunar nodes, that have been in long development for me. Hope anyone reading this found it relevant! Sorry I don’t have any lived advice to give at this point on how to work with the Nodes and integrate them better. But any insights are welcome. And hopefully these observations just made someone feel more understood!
