The North Node isn't a planet — it's the point where the Moon's orbit crosses the ecliptic heading north. In astrology it carries enormous weight: your North Node sign describes your soul's growth direction, the unfamiliar qualities you're meant to develop in this lifetime. Directly opposite sits the South Node — your comfort zone, the over-developed patterns you default to under stress. Life, the theory goes, keeps pushing you from South to North. The nodes change signs only every 18 months, so your birth date alone identifies your North Node sign with certainty in nearly all cases.
