Astrological Ramblings
**In this post in the series, we will take the House that the North Node falls in out of the equation and just focus on what it means to have your North Node in a specific sign (and what it means to have the South Node in the opposite sign). Usually with things having to do with the Nodal Axis (and growing into our North Node), a catalyst occurs in our lives that edges us out of the comfort of the South Node and into the uncharted territory of the North. This catalyst could be something major and life changing (such as a death, marriage, or divorce), or even something much more minor. Something will kind of shake us internally, saying “Wake up, fucker. You’re supposed to move beyond this,” whatever the “this” in the situation is. Once this waking up occurs, you will begin to move towards the North Node. Though, in all my years of study, this period of waking up usually doesn’t occur until the person’s first Saturn Return, or after it.** North Node in Gemini/South Node in Sagittarius: If your North Node falls in Gemini, your North Node mission in this lifetime is all about the use of effective communication & language (both written and verbal). Also, you’re probably supposed to move into the realm of logic, reason, facts, details, curiousity, and using the more concrete side of you mind. With Sagittarius as your South Node, you probably had a past life (or past lives) where […]
Recently, talk of draconic charts in astrology seems to have exploded around the different forums that I frequent (which is super-exciting, I love talking about this stuff!), which gave me the idea to make another entry highlighting these charts and what I believe are the important things to focus on while deciphering them. This is kind of a hodgepodge of ideas dealing with these charts, so bear with me if my ideas seem to kind of jump from thing to thing. Real quick though: if you would like for me to read your draconic chart for you (or my favorite – the natal to draconic comparison), or any kind of astrology reading, you can book a reading with me. And if you are more of a watcher than a reader, I do have videos about draconic astrology on my YouTube channel. Pluto’s importance here in these charts should never be forgotten. Pluto (and it’s polarity point opposite it) has a very special place within evolutionary astrology, almost operating like the North Node/South Node Axis, showing where we come from on a soul level and what we want to evolve into. The position of one’s natal Pluto points to the way we are based on the experiences from our previous incarnations (or where/how we come into this lifetime most “familiar”), while the natal Pluto Polarity point points to what our soul wants to evolve into in this lifetime. By reading these two placements in a draconic chart, I almost see this […]

The next part of this series should really be about the Gemini & Sagittarius North Node/South Node Axis, but I just recently saw a question on reddit about the North Node in Leo, which gave me the idea go out of order here. North Node in Leo/South Node in Aquarius: If your North Node is in Leo, in this lifetime, your soul wanted to evolve into the feeling […]

In this lifetime, your soul wanted to evolve into something more earthy, grounded and stable in the physical reality. This is probably a far cry from your South Node in Scorpio, […]

North Node in Aries/South Node in Libra – Your mission in this lifetime by sign is to focus on the concept of yourself, and who you really are. This placement suggests your soul wanting to grow into a more independent and pioneering spirit, and going after the things that you want in life because YOU want them. Of course, the North Node is never very comfortable for the native, and this may feel an unnatural way for you […]
One of the most common questions that I get asked by people when doing readings is something along the lines of “what is my purpose here in this lifetime?”/“What am I supposed to do with my life?” One of the best guidestones for answering this question is to look at the placements of the North and South Nodes of the Moon in the natal chart. The North Node is what the soul wanted to evolve into during this incarnation, the qualities that it hopes/hoped to develop (or needs to develop). The South Node, directly opposite the North Node, shows different traits and qualities that we have brought with us into this lifetime from past incarnations (where we are “comfortable” and “familiar” by sign and house). These are usually traits that we cling too, even if they don’t really serve us anymore. Since the South Node shows the traits and qualities that our souls are familiar with, we are usually very comfortable hanging around our South Node (and would probably be fine never leaving, hahaha!). However, the purpose of our soul in every incarnation is to actually learn something, to transcend and evolve into something else. To move away from the South Node while keeping the very best from it, and taking those best traits forward towards our North Node. As uncomfortable as it may be, if we never leave the comfort and familiarity of our South Node, we will never accomplish the evolutionary process of growing our soul into our […]
Charts where the natal north node is at 0-degrees Aries…..these charts absolutely fascinate me. This is because when you have your north node at 0-degrees Aries, your draconic chart is exactly the same as your natal chart. Since the nodal axis deals with the soul (what the soul is comfortable & familiar per the south node and one of the soul missions in this lifetime per the north node), it would stand to reason that this type of situation would cause THIS lifetime to be very important to the native (along the course of ALL the lifetimes that the native experiences). What could this mean? Lets explore some ideas 🙂 *Natal North Node at 0 degrees Aries* When a person has their natal north node at 0-degrees Aries, this causes ones draconic chart to look the same as their natal chart; all of the planets and aspects are conjunct when doing an overlay between the two charts. The closer that your natal north node is to 0-degrees Aries, the more similar the natal and draconic charts will appear. In the context of a this blog post I’m talking about people who have their natal north node either at 0-degrees Aries or conjunct the Aries Point within 5 degrees applying & separating. There are some theories that I have about what this can mean for the person who has this in their natal chart (and mind you, these are all just theories that feel like they might be right). When studying […]
