Hi 👋 I was wondering if you can explain one of my placements for me? - Stellium in 8th and in Aries( North Node, True Node and Juno) all of them are in Aries too.
Okay so I should first explain smth.
Stellium: 3 or more planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto) in the same house or sign. The nodes don't count. Although some astrologers count them if they're in the middle of the stellium (aka not the first or last 'planet').
Why don't nodes (north & south) count in stelliums?: They're not planets, they're calculated points in the sky based on the position of the Moon relative to the Earth & Sun.
North node, mean node, ascending node, true node... What's the difference?
North node & ascending node are synonyms, they mean the same thing.
The words mean node and true node both refer to the moon's North node (or ascending node, whatever you want to call it).
What's the difference between mean node and true node? The only difference is how they've been calculated. These two can't be more than 2.5° apart from each other but the calculation is different.
Mean node: When astronomers calculate the Mean Node, they take the Moon’s rate of motion and average it out. The resulting position is the Mean Node. The Mean Node is always retrograde.
True node: In theory, the position of the Nodes “wobbles” a bit. Astronomers began to factor this wobble in and called this position the True Node. Although the Nodes proceed through the Zodiac signs in a retrograde direction, the True Node moves in the opposite direction for a few days a month. (The opposite of retrograde is “direct.”) This is very different from the mechanism by which the planets go retrograde.
Which one's better? There's data to support either choice. They're only ever 2.5° apart so it doesn't matter much. If they fall in different signs for you, consider that both signs are valid.
Next: asteroids don't count in stelliums. The only moment you may consider an asteroid in a stellium is if there's already a planetary stellium (3 planets) there.
So as for your question. North node & true node is the same thing (North node is both true & mean, it just refers to the node itself no matter the calculation). So I assume you mean mean & true node in Aries. It's not weird to have both in the same sign, because they'll only ever be 2.5° apart.
North node in Aries, south node in Libra: This life's karma is about oneself. In your past life you've understood others, and understood much more than you've been understood. You were likely a caretaker and natural nurturer. In this life your karma is to take care of yourself and work on your own authenticity within, it's not about others anymore—it's about you. It's about your body, your mind, your appearance. It's about the core of who you are and how you actively present that to the world. It's about learning to stand up for yourself, take care of your body and be assertive about the things you want. It's about desire, about wants, about action. It's direct, rather than passive. It's bold.
With Juno in Aries, you're attracted to more direct people. People who are upfront and open and above all, passionate. People who know what they like and will do anything to get it. Essentially they're the go-getters. Funny, charming and at times loud.
