Hello, I answered your question in the Basic Astrology Forum, "Recognising Karmic Relationships" but I could not post so I am going to answer you here. Interesting question
Hello Tainsberry
Saturn is the Lord of Karma and the South Node is a Karmic point. Both conjunctions show a past life connection.
Quick question
which houses Rule Saturn respectively? (Capricorn on the cusp)
If it is the third house it could be a sibling connection
4th house could be a maternal connection
10th house could be a paternal connection
7th house could be a marriage or business partner. etc.
EtA. Not all Astrologers use the 4th for the Mother and 10th for the father, but I do.
Use what resonates with you.
