Let's Talk About the Lunar Nodes
  In Short
 
In Astrology, the Lunar nodes hold messages from your past and future that aim to guide you towards your life purpose. Two mathematical points, the North and South nodes are always in opposite Zodiac signs and they are energetically balanced. They have a lot to say about the lessons we are destined to learn.
 
The South Node indicates your natural talents and where you are most comfortable, although not necessarily what makes you feel satisfied. There is a sense of familiarity here as if you have possessed these abilities for many lifetimes. Instead of feeling stuck in your south node, you can use your natural gifts to help you find fulfillment in your north node destiny.
 
The North Node reveals your calling, often a passion that is appealing but intimidating. The path toward fulfilling this calling is tough and often filled with frustration, but it's work worth doing. Following your north node gives you purpose and helps you feel closest to your pure self.

You can look up your North and South nodes here. Read on to learn more about your natural gifts, your comfort zone, and your destiny. 

Aries North Node/Libra South Node
 
Naturally diplomatic, charming, and agreeable, forming your own identity outside of your relationships and embracing your individual gifts is your path to fulfillment. You struggle with underlying anger due to your resistance to stand up for yourself. You may feel like you’ve never been allowed to express your negative emotions so you’ve learned to repress them and suffer in silence. The more you learn to assert yourself and stop sacrificing yourself for the people around you, the easier it becomes to strike out on your own and achieve something for yourself.
 
Taurus North Node/Scorpio South Node
 
Seductive and mysterious, you are adept at strategizing, especially when it comes to finances and ownership. In fact, money and resources seem to come to you without effort. It sounds like a blessing but when you find yourself relying on the stability that someone else built for you, you miss out on your true purpose of proving to yourself that you are capable of self-sufficiency. You may feel suppressed by those who have provided for you and even manipulated by their control over you. Embracing the fear of instability and scarcity will show you that you are powerful, and can use your gift of strategy to bring opportunity to yourself and others.
 
Gemini North Node/Sagittarius South Node
 
Worldly, adventurous, and unrooted, you are always on the go. You love meeting new people, philosophizing about the world, and trying new things. While you may struggle to commit to the present moment, your path in life centers around presence and gratitude. Releasing your fixation on the future and allowing yourself to ponder what is instead of getting lost in winding philosophies will help you connect with what’s right in front of you.
 
Cancer North Node/Capricorn South Node
 
Family dynamics is a huge area of focus in your life. Your biggest lessons are found in your pursuit to balance your home life and your work life as well as understanding your relationship with your mother. Ambitious, dedicated, and masculine, you have spent a lot of your life fixated on working hard and earning a living. Unraveling your relationship with your mom, leaning into your emotions, and allowing yourself to enjoy genuine connections with others helps you realize that true fulfillment is found outside of work. When you allow yourself to nurture, you realize how warm and sentimental you really are.
 
Leo North Node/Aquarius South Node
 
Selfless, intellectual, and detached, you live your life in service to justice and humanitarianism. You are deeply compassionate although you quickly put your own emotions aside in order to objectively work to make the world a better place for the people you see hurting. Your detached nature prevents you from making the impact you are destined to make. Instead of staying behind the scenes, working to embrace your star power and step into the spotlight is the key to influencing radical change.
 
Virgo North Node/Pisces South Node
 
Creative, sensitive, and intuitive, your spiritual beliefs guide you through life. Life is a constant balance between fact and fantasy, and you usually lean towards fantasy. A powerful manifester, you let your daydreams and gut feelings guide you. Prone to denial, self-pity, and passivity, you are destined to embrace routines that ground you in the physical world and develop skills that allow you to research the facts, pay attention to details, and take accountability for the way you live your life. Your natural gifts can lend themselves well to technical skills and objectivity, helping you to become a discerning and healing force.

Libra North Node/Aries South Node
 
Fiercely independent, you know how to assert yourself and get what you want. Learning to compromise, commit, and get along with others will bring you the peace you’re missing. Prone to impatience, aggression, and a “me first” mentality, embracing the power of collaboration and generosity will help you find commitment. Allowing people into your life by being vulnerable will bring out the compassionate side of yourself that you keep hidden.
 
Scorpio North Node/Taurus South Node
 
Hardworking, practical, and sensual, you are more than willing to work for the finer things in life. Extremely grounded, you can get lost in the routine of daily life and the indulgences you give yourself to please your senses. Your Scorpio North Node pulls you into the spiritual world and shows you your emotional depths. Instead of fixating on what is physically in front of you, your destiny is to explore what is within you and what could be.
 
Sagittarius North Node/Gemini South Node
 
Communicative and connected, you are skilled at navigating your environment. Absorbing others’ body language and getting into the minds of others is something that fascinates you, although you sometimes take it too far and use people’s words against them. You have spent a large portion of your life feeling misunderstood and longing for someone who truly understands you. This longing leads you to branch out and explore the big picture of life, literally and figuratively. When you follow your North Node path you embrace complex philosophies instead of fixating on the minutiae, you face your fear of leaving your comfort zone in order to travel and see the world, and you allow yourself to be blunt and honest about your opinions.
 
Capricorn North Node/Cancer South Node
 
Compassionate, nurturing, and a true homebody, you make every environment you enter feel like home. Your creativity and intuition are unmatched, and you do well when you are allowed to be flexible and create a warm environment. Prone to soothing yourself with self-care, it is easy for your energy to be drained. Learning to release your sensitivity to the world around you will help you find a profession that fulfills you. You are destined to become a leader in your field of work, using your innate skills to provide for yourself. Staying in your comfort zone and selling yourself short is preventing you from achieving the level of success you are destined to.
 
Aquarius North Node/Leo South Node
 
Confident, loyal, and protective, you have an all-or-nothing approach to life. You love to maximize your experiences, making the smallest occasion a celebration. On the other side of the coin, you can turn a molehill into a mountain. Your dramatic flair can lead you to entitlement and over-the-top reactions. When you use your confidence and passion to pursue humanitarian efforts and support others, you are an unstoppable force of good in the world. You are destined to release your own ego and let go of materialism so you can develop objectivity in your visionary ideas.
 
Pisces North Node/Virgo South Node
 
Analytical, grounded, and skeptical, you work tirelessly towards perfection. Your mind works at an amazing pace to analyze and process information and you often use your natural gifts to be of service to others. Extremely hard on yourself, you are plagued by your worries and dismiss your intuition in favor of looking for the hard facts. You are destined to embrace your intuition and imagination, and let divine guidance move through you. Not only will you find peace of mind, but your healing gifts will also be maximized.
