2023 Cosmic Guide For The New Eclipse Cycle
Like Saturn, the lunar nodes play a major role in Astrology. They reveal a story arc both personal and collective. The South Node represents our karmic work. The North Node represents an archetype to work towards and integrate.
The Nodes also make eclipses happen.
The Nodes have been in Taurus-Scorpio since January 2022. But on April 20th, we have our first eclipse in a new series, a solar eclipse at 29 degree Aries. Then the Lunar Nodes change signs, arriving in Aries-Libra on July 17th.
The main story around these Aries-Libra eclipses is individuality and relationships.
We have our first Libra solar eclipse on October 14 at 21 degrees. We have two final eclipses in Taurus-Scorpio, wrapping up a story that began in November 2021.
