Lauren i am your opposite hehe! i have my north node in scorpio in the 5th, conjunct venus & uranus. the south node is in taurus in the 11th conjunct chiron.

i am still wondering if the north node is considered in a stellium cuz if it is then my n node, venus & uranus is one! hmmmm...

what this means to me (abstract PoV): i think that with my taurus s node i was some sort of mid-wife, witch, healer woman in a past life (or a few). i think that my s node being conjunct my chiron ('the wounded healer') may mean that i was lynched and/or burned at stake for my alternative healing beliefs in that time period.

so this life with my scorp n node i need to focus on my creativity and accept the help from others despite what they had done to me in my past life(s)! it is really hard for me to do this as i do tend to wanna do everything myself (and i can do everything myself but that isn't the point in this life!).

I'm not sure about the stellium thing..maybe, but most astrologers tend to count planets only.

Lauren, I sound like you, because my south node is conjunct Pluto, the intensity is too much, so far I attract a lot of air signs for that reason who try to lighten me up. I am demanding and like a lot of closeness. I try to make more out of what I have, without going slow.

As for working on feeling the luxuriousness of fabric or working on sex with my loved one, I find that it can have the opposite effect with me with a Taurus Sun/Cancer Moon. All that Pisces, Neptune 1st house, can make me love to sleep so much, I never want to wake up. If I take a pill to sleep I will take too much, enjoying the feeling so much, I become part of it, and lose myself in the feeling instantly. If someone sleeps next to me every night, it looks like I'm losing it, but I never do.

For that reason I try to surround myself with smart people who are orderly-but not rigid-that way I am getting that part of myself out there-and I can take time to feed the feeling part of myself. I get time to myself outside of my main relationship.

In relationships I must express all my energy and thoughts outward either in therapy or as doubts to be worked on. I cannot bottle up anything or my partner senses doubt inside and gets rigid and controlling-making me want to escape even more.

My mother has the same node, Pisces but in the 10th, conjunct her moon, and has Neptune trine her Venus and Ascendant. and we don't talk. We both cannot be around others with too much Pisces. We DO communicate through others and that's enough.

I have an ex b/f with lots of pisces, and north node in Cancer/4th house conjunct Neptune. And we also can't talk.

the following is from http://www.echoedvoices.org/Dec2002/Astrological_Perspectives.html

Is your Dragon Draggin'?:
Understanding your Lunar Nodes

It has become more widely known in recent decades that the North and South Lunar Nodes, known respectively as the Dragon's Head and Tail, play a significant role in determining the DIRECTIONAL ORIENTATION of a birthchart. People seeking astrological "advice" should know that the Dragon in their birthcharts is the only factor of astrology that tells them what they SHOULD do. The Lunar Nodal Axis shows the directional flow of the feminine life force through the earth-system of enfoldment within the womb of the lunar orbit, the cosmic "birth canal" so to speak.

Astronomically, the Lunar Nodal Axis is the intersection of the Moon's orbit and the Earth's orbit. The North Lunar Node, or Ascending Node (Dragon's Head), is the point at which the Moon crosses the Earth's orbit moving northward. The South Lunar Node, or Descending Node (Dragon's Tail), is the point at which the Moon crosses the Earth's orbit moving southward. The positions of the Lunar Nodes move slowly backwards around the zodiac, making one complete cycle in about eighteen and a half years.

The great significance of this astronomical relationship is that it constitutes a vital nexus of interaction among the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun. This interaction is dramatically shown by nature through the specter of eclipses. These strikingly visible phenomena can only occur at times when the Sun is very close in angular relationship to one or the other of the Lunar Nodes, thereby generating eclipse patterns at roughly six month intervals.

In ancient lore, eclipses were explained by the existence of a cosmic Dragon that routinely devoured the Luminaries (the Sun and Moon). The ability of priesthoods to predict visible eclipses from a particular place on the Earth's surface brought them enormous power to demonstrate their converse with the cosmos to the public at large, as it were. It is not unreasonable to suppose that those priesthoods understood more of the meaning of these phenomena than only their striking visible display.

The gist of the matter for purposes of natal astrology is that the Dragon's Head in your birthchart shows you where your energy is best directed, and the Dragon's Tail shows you where you inherit innate abilities. The primary significance of this is that there is a natural tendency to be more comfortable in the area of your South Node than the area of your North Node. That is, we tend to be more comfortable with what we already know how to do than with what we have not yet learned how to do.

For example, if your North Node is close to your Ascendant (on the left side of your birthchart), then your South Node is close to your Descendant (on the right side of your birthchart), and you feel more comfortable in a relationship than you do on your own, but in order to "move forward", the direction the Dragon is "headed", you have to learn how to be on your own. That doesn't mean that you can't have a good relationship, unless you cannot also accept the challenge of being who you really are.

If your North Node is close to your Descendant, then your South Node is close to your Ascendant, and you feel more comfortable on your own than you do in a relationship, but in order to move forward, you have to learn how to take full account of the "other person" as it were. That doesn't mean that you must deny yourself, although it might feel like that until you get your proper orientation, but rather that you not become self-absorbed to the point of being oblivious to the needs of any partner you may be involved with.

If your North Node is close to your Midheaven (at the top of your birthchart), then your South Node is close to your I.C. (Imum Coeli, at the bottom of your birthchart), and you feel more comfortable in the privacy of your own home than you do taking a prominent stand in public, but in order to move forward, you have to learn how to take such a prominent stand in some manner, to "stand for" something to the world at large.

If your North Node is close to your I.C., then your South Node is close to your Midheaven, and you feel more comfortable assuming responsibility in the public sphere than you do in the privacy of your own home, but in order to move forward, you have to learn how to deal with your own "inner issues" as it were.

There are many factors that play into a full understanding of the Dragon in your birthchart, e.g., the opposing houses and signs involved, and especially any planetary conjunctions to either of your Lunar Nodes. Planets conjoined to your South Node show specific personal functions that play into your inherited familiar orientation to life. Planets conjoined to your North Node show specific personal functions that take you directly into your greatest growth potential as a person.

The essential point is that your whole life focus should be oriented toward the incorporation of energy, as the Dragon moves forward and eats, through the orientation indicated by your North Lunar Node, more or less leaving your South Lunar Node to take care of itself, as the Dragon needs be less concerned with where he has been than with where he is going.

This can be extremely challenging, as, for example, when there are planets conjoined to one's Dragon's Tail and not to one's Dragon's Head. For such a person, one must incorporate inherited "talents" into one's moving forward. This can sometimes be experienced as "baggage." This often constitutes examples of one's Dragon draggin' as it were. To incorporate the orientation toward life indicated by your North Lunar Node is to move directly against entropy, to swim upstream, to tack your sails into the wind.

Despite any initial difficulties one may experience in learning how to incorporate energy at one's Dragon's Head, the very determining factor of this learning is the energy gain and the directional comprehension, putting everything else in proper perspective, that results from being "headed" in the right direction.

This whole process of learning is inherent in your personality as represented by your birthchart, and it is not necessary for you to know these truths about yourself in specifically astrological terms in order to find your correct orientation in life. Knowing your birthchart, however, spells out these parameters in no uncertain terms. Furthermore, knowing the astrological parameters of your orientation toward life, as indicated by your Lunar Nodes, enables you to monitor, in very revealing terms, various accentuations of the theme as they are affected by planetary transits and progressions.

I can be a procrastinator, but it disturbs me so much that I must act. I've learned the NN is all about skills that we need to work on and I see this need to act as part of that lesson.

I have my Chiron Aries as well & learned that the conjunction btwn these 2 means that I am very much focused on healing myself more so than many other aspects. I see this as part of that growth process.
