North Node is about purpose to fulfil this lifetime; life directions. Link Does it mean that it is easier for someone who has sun conjunct north node compared to someone who has sun opposite north node or sun square north node? Does everyone achieve what they are set out to do? What if one falls back on their comfort zone (south node) and never progress? Does Orb counts? What if Sun and north node is in the same sign but are not close? My north node is in the 11th house in Leo loosely conjunct my sun. IP: Logged |

nice link, thanks it's a *keeper*Yes sun conj N Node is supposed to be fortunate, BUT it all depends on how the sun is placed and aspected.... Do you want to post your chart? If you don't achieve your goals this time around, the common perception is you will come down again and try again.Thing is we don't even start to reach for N Node til mid life.... How looosly is it conj your sun? max 10' is allowed for luminaries ie: sun/moon in aspects.. Obviously, the closer the better. Now you seem to have missed out the sign and house positiion. In Leo in 11th your Lessons are connected to friendships, group activities and large organisations. Leo needs to be 'centre stage' the organiser, the limelight. South Node in Aquarius 5th house is asking you to come away from 5th house matters, like romance, children, creativity etc and enjoying the freedoma and independence you are used to.
5th is also the house of gambling and self employment... here are some more research links for you...

Many thanks for the links.  My sun in Leo 6'8 is definately very far from the north node 20'11. quote:

Darn... I hate the limelight. I dislike group activities. I prefer few close friends.  IP: Logged |

How old are you?
The NN won't come into play until mid-life (early 40s onward).
It's natural when you're in your, say, 20s to have no view of NN issues as you are already busy becoming an expect in SN issues/talents/lessons. Once you excel in those, you can move on toward your NN later in life.IP: Logged |

How should one deal with those who actively try to distract or detain one from one's NN? So far I've dealt by ignoring them. But that's actually somewhat contrary to the NN house placement.IP: Logged |

Hmm, I would say trust life to take you to your NN. I wouldn't ignore anyone if my sole problem is that they're "distracting" me from my NN (lol).

I think life experience slowly changes your outlook. My whole life I was very much focused on work and career and had a relatively good job. Yet I felt like I wasn;t being true to myself after a while and wanted a career which helped people. Before I had a chance to change career (I guess I was stuck in SN tendencies) I becaem very ill for nearly 2 years with alot of time off. I wrote lots of lyrics+music and I became much more in touch with emotions and expression. I have by no means 'arrived' ay mt NN but feel I have become more Cancer like and less capricorn like (which was more dominant throughout my life as my mars is capricorn too)

I'd prefer to check your chart as I can't see from here the cusp of your 10th house.
Is it easy to bring it up? Or do you know if you 10th house cusp is in Cancer too? IP: Logged |

Conjunctions and trines are best aspects for north node. Since "sextile NN" means "trine SN", it supports SN more than NN Which is not good. Trining SN means, SN and aspecting planet has in the same element which is not wanted.My north node and saturn is well aspected and placed which is unlucky for me because NN in 29 degree of capricorn conjuncting Saturn in NN. I hate being capricorn but cancer as well. Thus i am gonna create my own north node which i see fit. I am nearly over my SN so i am gonna start new. ALSo i have 11th house ruler in 11th house and in equal house system, MY NN and Saturn conjuncts in capricorn in 11th house(a little bit wide). An astrologer said that my overall placements supports my life's purpose. Who cares North Node? Worst NN's are earth elements... hiyyyyyyyy.. Boring, slow advancement, not good for lazies.. I think most lucky people in this life are WELL ASPECTED NORTH NODE İN FIRE SIGNS IN 5TH HOUSE!!!!! IP: Logged |

That'd be great, thanks I'll try and attach it here.
It is on the cusp of my 10th towards 11th... I'm never sure whether to 'round up' house placements or not.. What do you think?

Well, I think the choice of whether to have equal houses or Placidus is personal. As you learn more about your chart, you will learn to discern which one fits you best.
For now, let's leave it at Placidus. And it turns out your 10th house cups is in Gemini.
Ruler of your 10th is Mercury. Natural ruler of the 10th house is Saturn (ruler of Cap) but in your chart Saturn rules the opposite house 4th).
Now, when the NN is in a sign that is naturally in opposition to the natural sign of that house, it is all about integration of the opposites. As you already said, bringing Cancerian qualities to your 10th house is what you are called for to do in this lifetime. Because the 10th is a very visible house, any Cancerian traits here will determine your status, position in society, influence your career and how you are seen by the public.

Thats a very helpful description the house systems! Thankyou.. it has been confusing me for some time. I guess I need to integrate my NN/SN and my Sun/Moon polarities! That is a good question, I'm inbetween jobs at the moment. Myself and a friend have setup a software development business last month but it is not providing much income yet.. I would like to either.. a)Make my own business successful, become very rich so I can set up foundations\charities\groups to help people (the idealistic option).
or b)Work for a charity maybe corporate fundraising (possibly the more realistic 'compromise') What does my chart suggest? What has your personal north node experience been like Anongrl?

i'd be very happy if i did indeed reach the symbolic degree my NN represents. might be a rockier path to this tho..Interpretation of the 6° Gemini symbolic degree
"At the edge of a lake surrounded by mountains, two young women holding hands watch a swan swimming towards them." Contemplative, pleasant, and generous character. Even though the horizon is quite limited, life is stable, quiet, and devoid of uncertainties. One is blessed with numerous loyal friends, a nice entourage, and a happy marriage. In a female chart, this degree may indicate special loving ties with a sister or a twin, or the birth of twins.

That's correct.
I'm a SN in Virgo conj Pluto.
My super-analytical skills and the painstaking attention to detail are an expression of my Virgoan SN. (I also have a strong air/fire element in my chart which helps intellectually.)
My NN is in Pisces. Astrology, Reiki, Tarot, healing, poetry, and intuitive counselling are the talents pointed out to me by my Pisces NN.
Integrating both my nodes is not easy. My SN is still pretty strong and I'm often frustrated by ppl in my life who will only accept one side of myself and ignore or completely reject the other.
It's a lifelong pursuit.
I'm glad you found the above useful. Your second idea seems to me better suited for your NN because I could almost visualize you in a place like this offering personal care of some sort to people in need. You can be very successful while expressing your nurturing talents (Cancer) in a professional setting. Any interests in hands-on healing, massage, cooking professionally, catering, hotel services, and the like?

Hmm, methinks it might be harder for you to reach your NN in this lifetime. I'm not being rude or anything. You have a lot of rx planets which indicate similarly that you are a pretty young soul, have work to do on a soul level, it might take a while.
Just live your life the best way you know how. Never harming anyone. Being true to yourself, honest with everyone. Don't worry so much about unaspected NN.
How do you feel about your SN in Sag?

Interesting!!! You mean a lot of rx planets means young soul, but someone who has say, one rx planet is an old soul on this planet? Oh wait, that means acousticbob an old soul, he only has a rx chiron!!!!

Well, no. I only referred to sand's chart specifically. Having a big number of planets rx usually is an indication of a number of lessons to learn in this life. For me, having a lot of karma to resolve means you -as a soul- have ways to go, which is why I called it "young" soul. I wouldn't generalize though, and I definitely didn't put this or that label in anybody else's chart. Like with most "labels", "young" or "old" is relative to what you use as a standard: young as far as to what? old when compared to what? You need to have a "measure" of sorts in mind, or you're talking nonsense. I explained my measure in this case. Sand was asking specifically about his Nodal axis and the measure of lessons and karma is relevant to the question at hand.
Otherwise, I look at each chart individually. I don't recite cookbooks. It's my personal view of things and how I perceive things a combination of both knowledge and intuition.
Just to clarify and as a disclaimer. IP: Logged |

that's cool if i'm still a young one. i'm too earthy to comprehend other planes anyway. they say tho (so iv read lol) that no young soul is born with scorpio rising. or something like that. my interest in the north node is this lifetime. i didn't even think of it as something i can fail to do hehe! but gem NN sounds so easy!  i'm a bit of a fatalist too in that somehow i believe i'll be placed into what i should be doing even if that's going down in a plane or something. i definitely still do my sag south node which is gather info.
