A lot of times when the North node is involved, it isn't that way because it's outside of our comfort zone. Now that sounds warm and fuzzy and it kind of is, but you know we tend to have this idea that when we're doing something we're supposed to be doing it should feel easy or should have a natural flow. It's like our lighthouse, the north to our compass. The North Node gives us clues about what our soul wants to do in this lifetime. Sometimes you'll also see it called the true node. Sometimes it's referred to as the head of the dragon. It's sometimes called the karmic axis, which gives you some clues as to what its significance is, and in Vedic Astrology the North node is called Rahu. In my work with synastry I work with four axes and the nodal axis is one of them. The North Node is part of an axis called the nodal axis. It's the point where the moon's orbit and the ecliptic meet at the moment of your birth. In astrology it's called a luminary and the North Node isn't a planet either. You know, we all can have and do have shadow sides to our personality, shadow sides to our Sun Sign and managing that is what I would encourage you to think of when people say "deal with your ego." It's just that filter and we need that in order to interact with regular life on planet earth. I mean, why would we even be here? It would be so boring if nobody had a personality. I really want to challenge that idea because our ego is our personality and without a personality. You know, you've got to get rid of your ego to be really spiritual. Does that make sense? The Sun is also our ego, and a lot of people see the word ego as a bad thing. So all of your other planetary aspects have the Sun's filter through it as well. The Sun is not only the vehicle your soul is using as its filter and its expression in this life, the Sun shines its filter through all of the planets. If you imagine our solar system, the Sun is at the center and we have all of the other planets and asteroids in orbit. Your Sun Sign is the filter that your soul has chosen to shine itself through in this life. We all know what that is as a culture, but it's actually much deeper than that. The Sun is, you know, what's your sign? I'm a Virgo. So we need to look at it as a whole after we look at it individually.įirst let's talk about what the Sun is in astrology. Now you may not know what that means and that's okay I will get to that later on. For example, if you have a synastry chart where all the soulmate indicators are there, everything looks amazing except someone has an unaspected Sun. So in other words, even though each ingredient in the recipe is important and gives flavor to the whole recipe, you can't single out each ingredient and sort of put an umbrella over the relationship or the recipe. I also want to mention that when it comes to synastry, it's like a grand recipe and each synastry connection that we look at is a different ingredient in that grand recipe. There are so many ideas about what these deeply moving relationships are and I'm not here to debate semantics with anybody. Some people say soul mate, some people say twin flame, divine partner, life partner, so just use whatever word you like. When I say “soulmate” I really mean whatever word you use for that deep soul-connected type of relationship. First I need to give a little disclaimer.
