Anyway. What are your North and South Nodes and do you feel like they have any/have had any impact in your lives?

You're going to think I'm a whacko.... (and anyone else reading this)
After my post, I googled North Node Pisces & found this site:
http://northnodeastrology.blogspot.com/2008/03/pisces-north-node.html
So I'm reading along, right, and it's all creepily kind of familiar to me.
Like I'm sitting here at work reading it, smiling...feeling comforted by it. Then at the very bottom there's a quote from Jiddu Krishnamurti who was apparently a North Node Pisces as well. My stomach dropped, I absolutely flipped shit on the inside...

Idk if you've heard of a band from the 90's called LIVE? They made another album in 2000 I believe?
Well, I always loved them and couldn't tell you why. Most people can't even understand their lyrics...but somehow, even as a small child they made sense to me. Hearing them comforted me. The lead singer - who is also the song writer - Ed Kowalczyk credits Krishnamurti as his inspiration.

Ev - yeah it makes sense actually when I finally admit it to myself.

I am a perfectionist and am very hard on myself. Even as a Sag I've always just kind of done what I'm supposed to do.
I've been struggling with my spiritual beliefs for years.
I also have outrageous expectations of people and hold my own standards to others - always getting let down in the process...lol...good thing I am a Sag at the end of the day, or I'd have no hope left for humanity. 😛

Through previous incarnations the soul has acquired an overemphasis of energy in the area of self-righteousness. An overwhelming need for independent pursuit of philosophical and spiritual enlightenment has led to neglect and lack of connectedness to other humans.

In order to heal this energy imbalance of the soul, Gemini North Node individuals need to focus on reconnecting to others by learning to relate effectively. This process can be assisted by practising and developing active listening skills and openness to the viewpoints and feedback of others.

A tendency to "pontificate" and overlook or dismiss other viewpoints only serves to drive people away and further disconnect Gemini North Node individuals from other humans. By cultivating a more receptive and less judgmental attitude, these individuals are more likely to create the rapport needed to achieve the appreciation for the knowledge that they so strongly desire to share with others.

A critical lesson that needs to be learnt in this lifetime by Gemini North Node individuals is that a self-righteous attitude regarding having "all the answers" stemming primarily from their intuitive faculties will not suffice to provide the answers that they are seeking in this lifetime. These individuals need to further expand their perspective on life and their body of wisdom via input of information from others and cooperation with others in dealing with life's issues.

Many events in this incarnation will provide Gemini North Node individuals with the challenge of learning to effectively integrate the energy polarities of gathering and exchange of information (Gemini North Node) and synthesis of information/wisdom (Sagittarius South Node) in order to attain a true sense of internal harmony which will assist alignment with their spiritual purpose and path.

I'm just the opposite of you Jason. My North Node is in Cancer and my South Node is in Capricorn. I don't know much about it though and not sure what it means.



The Cancer north node reveals a soul that has spent numerous incarnations as an opinioned, well-respected, and accomplished member of the community. It worked hard to achieve it's once prominent level of recognition and enters this lifetimes wanting, needing, and pursuing the same prestige it once had.
He works harder than most yet fails to accomplish all that he sets out to do. If he feels that a situation might make him seem inadequate, he will go far out of his way to escape the embarrassment; even if it means making himself emotionally and/ or physically ill.
Karmic residues of materialism and self-righteousness are also not foreign to him. Rarely will he accept the advice of others; secretly thinking that he knows best. Seldomly will he share his honest feelings because he believes in personal privacy and is unable to accept any form of criticism. And being the opportunist that he is, will strategically place himself in situations where there is something to be gained; not hesitating for one moment if offered the chance to use another's weakness for his own benefit. All of this is done secretly of course, as to not damage the respectful image he has worked so hard to create for himself.
Unfortunately, or fortunately, depending on how you want to look at it, the Cancer north node will ask him to leave his rigid ways behind and soften his walls when dealing with others. He will be asked to trade his arrogance for emotional honesty and will be shown the benefits of nurturing and being nurtured. And most importantly, he will asked to gradually open himself up to his Cancerian sensitivity.
As time goes by, he will begin to value life and family more than money, emotional connectedness more than calculated control and new creation more than old baggage. His soul will teach him that the rock which was once him, is now ready to give way and allow some water to seep in. His soul will help him see that one of his greatest pleasures and achievements in this lifetime will be to nourish others; both in physical and spiritual ways. His Capricorn south node has overfilled his vessel...and so now it is his turn to share its abundance with those who need it.
