quote:
Theory & Practice of Geocentric Planetary Nodes by Theodor LandscheidtThe moon’s nodes and their interpretations are only a special case. General interpretational analogies of the geocentric nodes may be derived from the cosmic phenomenon that the orbital planes of two cosmic bodies intersect each other. In astrology this is a legitimate analogy operation. It yields the interpretational principles: intersection, interface, interchange, junction, contact; connection; union, nexus, convergence, coalescence. In psychological terminology, we get: meeting, relation, connectedness. Biological terms that reflect the nodal phenomenon are cell fusion, sense organ, synapse. As to practical realizations, we may think of society, club, conference, association, cooperation, traffic-junction, crossroads, network, switch aggregates, social contact, union with a partner.
It is easy to see that the nodes cover just that wide field of human relations that generates problems astrologers meet with in their consultations. She or he who does not take into account the planetary nodes does not take advantage of this special information that amounts to about 40% of the total information embodied in a horoscope.
This implication is highlighted in detail when we look at the interpretation of the special nodes. They emerge when we combine the general interpretational principles of nodes with the well-known principles of the planets:

Fateful relationship; karmic link; exert pressure on a partner; meeting one‘s inner life center (Self); “loss of soul”; mass meeting; nuclear fusion; nuclear fission; political influence exerted by mass media; interaction of nuclear force; wield demagogic oratory power.
Moon’s Nodes:
More special interpretative analogies had to be assigned to these nodes than the hitherto usual symbolical correspondences.
Principles:
Subconscious connection; instinctive association; relation subjected to change; contacts with the female sex.
Biology:
Exchange of fluid; sweating; sweat duct; beginning and ending of menstruation; penetration of spermatozoon into egg; delivery; cutting of umbilical cord.

It should be noted that such interpretations that accentuate special qualities represented by terms like link, connection, association, union, junction, etc., cannot be derived from the planets alone.
