The South Node is always in direct opposition with the North Node in a natal chart or through transit. Therefore, it is important to take into consideration both placements in their signs as well as house positions and aspects. The NN has been defined clearly in our past posts and they have included the South Nodes position as well, but we thought we would just discuss the energies of the South Node in this post.
The SN is
conducive of the energies linked to Saturn so challenges and obstacles are
often a part of this nodal expression. Difficulties are associated with the SN
when we drift back into the comfortable realms of this nodal placement. We are
not meant to follow this position and although it may feel like a comfortable
place to reside, we are not to move in its direction (defined by the house and
sign position).
The SN has
been linked with a prior life that some Astrologers suggest can assist us in
our current life. We can use some of these energies to assist us in following
the NN requirements in the natal chart. We have brought the SN energies with us
but they can suggest challenge when activated through transit or progression. A
challenging square to the SN will indicate struggles and obstacles and a
tendency to resist change and evolve. If Uranus is involved there may be a
tendency to resist spiritual evolution and enlightenment; if Neptune is
involved a resistance to let go of the past; and a suggestion of ego
involvement if Pluto is involved or a need for growth and expansion often
through positive reinforcement if Jupiter is involved and so forth.
Oppositions
often imply that others are involved and their input will impact us. In some
cases we may not want to be open to what they have to say or feel as though
they are intruding. Because of the NN conjunction we actually need to listen to
these people in order to move ahead.
Trines and
sextile help to facilitate opportunities and easy flow although the connection
to the SN often suggest that even though an opportunity is present holding on
to old ways and not moving forward can be a challenge.
Although
the SN is considered to be a challenging position regardless of the difficulties
presented by the SN in the natal chart we can use their energies to enable
growth and opportunities in our current ventures. They can hold important
information that has been taught or learned through experience that can help us
move ahead with our NN potential.
