(I've got
Mercury
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Pluto
Uranus Retrograde...
and my Nodal action is...Direct.)

quote:

---

I feel that planets in direct motion are concerned with issues of growth, while planets in retrograde motion are concerned with issues of evolution. What’s the difference between the two? Well, growth cycles can be accomplished within the span of an individual lifetime. Evolution cycles, on the other hand, take many lifetimes to complete.

I began to explore this theory when I started to work extensively with the Moon’s Nodes. The Moon’s Nodes most certainly have to do with evolutionary issues: in a sense, they help to connect our past life experiences and lessons with our path in this lifetime.

Retrograde nodes are NOT the same as a retrograde planet, since planets have energy and nodes don't. So whether or not your nodes are retrograde is unimportant, what matters is the sign and house placement of your nodes. I think you CAN utilize your retrograde energy in this life, but it takes a LOT of work. Most likely you are doing this work in:
- Mercury (thinking/daily work)
- Mars (being)
- Jupiter (expansion, also wisdom)
- Saturn (duty)
- Pluto (transformation)
- Uranus (friends)

So, as long as you are working on your thinking every day, being who you are, learning, doing the "right" things, transforing yourself and your world, and being friendly...you're working on and using your retrograde energies. And, most likely, you work on these energies a little MORE than the rest of the energies in your life.

Turing direct in this lifetime,
