Introduction
The Nodes in the birth chart represent the energies linked to the Soul’s karmic story, and how the soul can evolve from them.
The South Node tells us about the themes we have worked on previous lives, so it feels familiar and too comfortable so there is no growth, and we end up getting too attached to them and using the low expression of that energy, but also note that since we have experience with these energies, we have great strength on them.
The North Node on the other hand, is the medicine! It tells us about the themes the soul intends to work on in this lifetime to reach its evolution. Those energies are unfamiliar to us, they feel uncomfortable, and we usually don’t have experience with them, but when we follow our North Node our soul expands as we overcome our limitations and conditionings, we grow and our path of evolution opens up to us.
The house location in the birth Chart gives us more information about what arear of our life these life lessons are to be applied.
Lunar Nodes shifting to Aries Libra Axis
In the collective, the Nodes changed signs recently. The nodes of the moon were for about 18 months, in the axis Taurus and Scorpio, time where we worked on topics about our personal survival instincts, our values, and balanced them with our transformational power.
Now with nodes officially in the axis Aries / Libra we are focusing on the Self, balancing our desires of independence with our desires to be in a relationship. Collectively, this change in the nodal axis will set some trends in the community or some challenges related to the energies of this Aries Libra Axis.
This happened on July 12, 2023 for the mean nodes of the Moon which are the ones we use for evolutionary astrology. And they will be there until January of the year 2025
This shift in the nodal axis activates growth in our chart as individuals, mainly all your cardinal points in your chart will be activated during this time. The emphasis is the cardinal and fire energy for Aries.
Libra South Node
Libra energy aims for peace and harmony, but if the South Node is in here, our work will be about asking ourselves where we have been giving away our power on behalf of that peace and harmony. It may be helpful to discern about behaviors we may have outgrown or that no longer work of us in any type relationships.
During this time with the South node in libra, we are invited to clean up that area in our chart, and this does not mean we need to become only focused on ourselves and we will stop collaborating with others, no! this is about balancing the energies, healing the Libra area of our chart with a healthy Aries energy, and being careful of the low expression of our Libra energies, realizing what behaviors within our relationships are no longer at the service of the soul’s evolution. It is about realizing where in our relationships we are being codependent and where we are losing ourselves in the other.
Aries North Node – The Medicine
With the North Node in Aries, as our medicine during this time, we are moving towards a strong cardinal fire energy. We are aiming to integrate in our processes the energy of the initiator, energies of motivation, being decisive, stand up for what is right, and how we overcome obstacles. Aries energy is also about connecting and being conscious of the energy of the SELF, and this has to do with how we take leadership in our life and take care of ourselves.
So, as you may notice, this is more about adjusting and healing the Aries -Libra Axis area in our chart, Libra South Node receiving the help of the North Node energy of Aries as a medicine…, we will work on our relationships with ourselves first — to then being able to build healthy relationships grounded in self-love.
The Aries-Libra axis if working in a healthy way, can be integrated, they complement each other, and they can get into an agreement. We can be decisive and stand up for ourselves or for others in a peaceful diplomatic Libran way. We can find courage to have a peaceful conversation with our partner to express our needs.
During these eighteen months, we are invited to work and experience these Arian topics, in that area of your chart where Aries is. So be mindful and open minded to explore them. It is helpful to consider that important events on the Nodes send a signal to our Natal Nodes activating something in there specially on your cardinal point of your chart, and mainly during eclipse seasons.
As always remember we all have free will. What I am describing here are the energies available in the cosmos, but it is up to you to take the opportunities to do the work. So, keep that in mind.
I hope you enjoy this information and find it helpful, so you guys have an idea of what the work for the next 18 months is about in relation to the nodes of the moon.
Thank you for being here!
