The Nodal Shift!
The Nodes of the Moon transit into Virgo & Pisces today and it marks an epic shift in the collective focus, dharma, karma & lessons.
The Nodes have been moving through the signs of Aries & Libra since July 2023 where you have been moving through lessons around relationships & your self identity.
Reflecting on how far you’ve come when it comes to yourself (Aries) and how you’ve asserted yourself in new ways in your life and relationships (Libra) points to how powerful the Nodes are.
You’ve been forced to release people pleasing tendencies, out of balance relationships, over giving, self sacrificing and most importantly, you’ve had to firm up your boundaries and raise your standards because this is what the South Node in Libra and North Node in Aries required.
Now understanding the energies & polarities of both Virgo & Pisces points to strategies to find harmony, balance, peace and ease over the course of this 18 month transit.
The North Node sign is what to develop & strategies to win… think of it as a point or place of integration.
The South Node sign is tendencies to leave behind & strategies to lose… think of it as an area for you to do shadow work around.
Releasing the shadow energies of the transit South Node can be intense & triggering because it can feel vulnerable, uncomfortable & as if it will threaten your safety.
However, these tendencies will cause you to lose over the course of this transit if they are not faced, confronted & healed.
The way out is through embracing the qualities and methodologies of the North Node which will actually lead you to more happiness, satisfaction, joy & fulfillment over the course of the next 18 months.
This balance in polarity is happening in Virgo & Pisces so here are the main energetic themes you’ll be asked to integrate (North Node in Pisces) and releasing (South Node in Virgo).
Shadow sides of Virgo (Releasing):
Anxiety & Anxiousness
Control
Stress
Overanalysis
Obsessive worry
Exaggerating the importance of details
Being too critical or judgmental
Fault finding & making others wrong
Perfectionistic tendencies
Staying in unpleasant situations
Inflexibility
Positive & Empowered Pisces (Integrating & Developing):
Spirituality
Cultivating & trusting your intuition
Being nonjudgmental
Compassion
Acceptance
Surrendering anxiety to a higher power
Freeing the mind through meditation and self reflection
Focusing on faith
Trusting in positive outcomes
Acknowledging connecting with the universe
Welcoming change
Love & wholeness
You’ve been moving through karmic lessons with Saturn in Pisces since March 2023 so think back to the revelations or notable events that came up at this time, especially as it relates to overcoming fears, spirituality and surrender.
Look to the axis that rules Virgo & Pisces in your birth chart and these will be the main energetic themes for you to navigate now:
1st-7th house axis: Balance between relationship and self. Me vs. We.
2nd-8th house axis: Balance between personal need for security and comfort and the same needs of others.
3rd-9th house axis: Balance between learning and sharing knowledge.
4th-10th house axis: Balance between public and private lives. Career vs. Family. Inward vs. Outward energy
5th-11th house axis: Balance between needing to be seen by others and the need for togetherness. Social activity & play is the focus.
6th-12th house axis: Balance between mental, spiritual, and physical health. Work and service.
What makes this transit more powerful, important and interesting is that the North Node is moving from 0 degrees of Aries to 29 degrees of Pisces which means it’s moving from the FIRST degree of the zodiac to the LAST.
This is a MAJOR release point and is clearing and bringing things to culmination, manifestation & fruition.
The North Node will also conjunct the ruler of Pisces, Neptune, so the veil will be VERY THIN the next few months.
Things can majorly come full circle now and big blessings can come through so pay attention to what intuitive insight & spiritual guidance comes through & act accordingly.
There’s a BIG Full Moon in Cancer conjunct Mars retrograde on July 13th and its a major emotional purge supporting you in clearing your past for good.
This is the beginning of a collective 9 year so a lot of beginnings and endings are bound to occur.
The way out is through the North Node and learning lessons of release, complete trust in the unknown, faith and surrender.
