#the nodes

Destiny opens a karmic portal into a new timeline. On June 5, Uranus at 2° Gemini forms a rare square to the North Node in Pisces and the South Node in Virgo at 2°, creating one of the most significant karmic turning points of the year. Life may begin moving faster than expected as sudden realizations, meaningful encounters, and unexpected opportunities reveal pathways that were previously hidden from view. What appears random may be carrying the signature of destiny, guiding you toward a future that has been quietly unfolding behind the scenes. Sometimes a single moment of awareness changes everything that follows.

Allowing emotions to flow, indulging in sensitivities, indulging in fantasies, letting things come and go, and maybe even expecting the unknown is their comfort zone. Possibly use to being the victim can be associated. This South Node can be use to instability. Not that they accept this instability or promote it but life has shown them a lot of change and influx, especially with how others react and feel. People in their life may have had little boundaries or tend to cross this person's boundaries too often. Easily being used or mistreated may be something they keep coming across. Helping others, highly emotional talks, maybe feelings of wallowing, self-pity, self-blame, guilt, feelings of softness, and accepting and understanding endings are themes that they tend to revert to or rely on. They may feel most comfortable around those they have to take care of or those that they put on a pedestal. This South Node may feel more comfortable with the idea of a person or fantasy of someone than the actual person at times. Those who stimulate their emotions and passions may feel comfortable.This can come in a wide range of positivity or negativity. While there are challenges to overcome there is great emotional strength in imagination, expression, flexibility, and self-healing.

To be upfront, there may be a comfortableness with being controlled BUT even more so to have control. This could have come from a controlling upbringing, an unpredictable life, or people in their life who put all the responsibility and authority on them. They are use to structure, LOGIC, rules, things making sense, practicality, maturity, seriousness, and responsibility. Not only does taking care of themselves come naturally but guiding, taking care of, protecting - mostly being responsible for others comes naturally. Emotional suppression can be what they are use to. It feels uncomfortable to express feelings and "burden" others with their worries or problems. OR they could be around people who approach emotions as something highly private and not to be shared. Their natural environment can feel cold at times or even cutthroat. They are most comfortable around the down-to-earth, the level-headed, maybe the crude, the "what you see is what you get", and those that get business done. Ambition, tenacity, their ability to overcome obstacles is a strength. They're use to the harshness of reality, expects something to go wrong, wants to always be prepared. Out of their comfort zone is letting go, relaxing, overcoming negative thoughts and worries. 

Hiding away is what comes naturally or is an instant response to many things in life. Hiding away as in shielding their emotions, vulnerability, intentions, insecurities, and fears. This South Node feels comfortable in the dark and in a place that is hard to get to know them. Maybe they were very sensitive when younger, had a family that poked too much at their privacy and self-autonomy, maybe something made them feel powerless in the past. There could be many things that cause this. There is also comfort in taking control and trying to maintain self-reliance and even more so a power over others in their life and their own path in life. The Taurus North Node isn't about some explosive opening or dramatic surrendering to chaos and unpredictability, it is about steadily coming to terms with reality, with honesty, and letting emotions and relationships rest on the surface with peace or grounding. Because polar opposites are about what is opposite, sometimes a stark contrast, Scorpio South Node holds onto extreme pains and inner turmoil where the Taurus North Node pulls to let go of the internal war and tap into inner strength and stability. The Scorpio South Node comfort zone can be brooding and bathing in their own deep emotions. Another tally mark of a grudge is on their prison wall. Another person to distrust on their list of worries and observations. The Scorpio - Taurus dynamic also has themes of survival. The South Node has strength in facing their emotions to survive and the North Node shows a place of resilience and endurance. Sometimes they feel safer or more comfortable with those they can control. Trust and intimacy are in their sphere of what feels right and it may mean they are attracted to those who seem most trustworthy, good listeners, sworn secret keepers. A feeling of always having trust be betrayed could be what they are use to as well. A pattern of "testing" people could happen. But this South Node can have a great strength of emotional insight and perception into human nature.

Comfortable in thinking about themselves, it is instinctual. In this way they may relate themselves to others impulsively. While somewhat "Libra-like" they still do this with self-interest in the front of the mind. The comfort zone is in taking the lead or possibly more often doing things on their own. Hobbies, achieving success, projects or homework. They are not "alone" socially but when it comes to getting stuff done... they want to be the one and only. Staying active, little time for rest, refraining from showing sensitivity, frank discussion, being forward, and having a positive mindset is part of what comes naturally. With optimistic thinking could indicate the uncomfortable need to face things like vulnerability, inner sadness, accepting failure, accepting weaknesses. The SN strengths is in ME. Individuality, courage, honesty, attention to self-needs, independence. Their "comfort zone" might also include people or environments that allow freedom and individuality. People who admire them or follow them. People who respect their space. Could also be people who challenge them, compete with them, or always cause conflict.
