North Node The
North Node ( )
and South Node (
 )
of the Moon are points that are directly opposite each other.
Together, they form the Nodal Axis. They are not planetary bodies; rather, they are
mathematical points
that take into account the relationship between the
Sun, Moon, and Earth at the time of our
birth. More specifically, the Moon's nodes
are the points where the Moon's orbit intersect the plane of the ecliptic.The Nodes of the Moon represent points of personal karmic imbalance. The North Node represents the kinds of experiences that we must work to develop in order to work with our karma, and to grow spiritually. The South Node represents those experiences and qualities that come naturally to us, that are over-developed, and that we tend to fall back on. The South Node can be a point of undoing unless we develop the North Node experiences and qualities. Thus, consciously working on these "life lessons" can bring us to increased happiness and fulfillment. If we over-emphasize and fall back on the qualities of our South Node, at the expense of developing our North Node, we may have a difficult time feeling personally successful.
