The Nodes in the
Signs

The North and South
Nodes are two points on the Moon. In astrology, these points are
considered indicators of karma, lessons, and overall themes within
the life.

The South Node marks
what we already know. Some see this as lessons we have already
learned in our past lives, so we don’t need to learn them again.
The sign this Node falls in reveals the energies and knowledge
already within us, but it can also reveal our weaknesses. For those
who don’t believe in past lives, this is often seen as the lessons
we learn quickly, or in childhood.

The North Node, also
known as the True Node, marks the lessons we need to learn in this
lifetime. The sign this Node falls in reveals what challenges and
difficult positions we will be faced with in this life. This is a
director, pointing us towards our ultimate destiny or purpose.

Because these Nodes
are perfectly opposite, they will fall in opposing signs (ie. Aries
and Libra, Taurus and Scorpio, etc.), also known as sister signs.
