North Node and South Node: Portals of Purpose

Today, I am talking about promise, passion, and purpose in the context of your North Node and South Node…

In the cosmic mirror of your birth chart, the North Node and South Node are not just astrological points—they are portals of purpose. They hold the sacred code of your soul’s journey through time and space—what you’ve come into this life to release, remember, and reclaim.

Together, they form a spiritual axis—one that bridges your karmic past with your dharmic potential.

The South Node – Echoes of the Past

Your South Node holds the stories, skill sets, identities, and emotional patterns that have been lived, repeated, and over-practised across many lifetimes. These karmic imprints are etched into your energetic field—familiar, even seductive—because they’ve shaped you again and again.

For myself, I’ve had many lifetimes as a devoted warrior—in my Aries South Node, along with my Sun sign in Aries in this lifetime—So, I am indeed ready for my Libra North Node role as a diplomat, a co-creator, a supporter, an encourager, a peacemaker, an artist and a cultivator of sacred beauty in this lifetime.

See, in this lifetime, you’re not here to repeat your old practices.

You’re here to recognise them.
To bless them.
And then, to release their hold.

This part of your chart reveals what’s been completed at a soul level. It’s not bad or wrong—it’s just no longer where your power lives. The South Node shows where you’ve played the role long enough. Now it’s time to step off the old stage, bow with grace, and make way for a new expression of your Soul.

This is what it means to release karmic imprints. It’s not about disowning the past—it’s about liberating your light from the cords that bind it.

The North Node – Your Sacred Becoming

The North Node is your soul’s compass point. It’s the evolutionary direction that your future self is calling you toward. It’s often unfamiliar, edgy, and deeply activating—because it represents the very qualities you’re here to embody in this life.

This is your Dharma—not just your “life purpose,” but the sacred path of your unique emergence and presence. Aligning with your North Node is an act of devotion. It’s a choice to live into your soul’s potential, even when it challenges your personality or ego attachments.

Where the South Node says, “You’ve done this,”
The North Node whispers, “You were born for this.”

It’s where your courage awakens. It’s where your future takes root. It’s where your radiance returns—fully expressed and fully embodied.

The Dance Between the Two – Wisdom and Evolution

This sacred axis is not about abandoning who you’ve been—it’s about alchemising the wisdom of the past to serve who you are becoming. The gifts of your South Node don’t disappear—they’re refined and redirected through your North Node expression. What once held you back becomes fuel for forward motion. What once defined you now informs your purpose, but no longer limits it.

For example:
If your South Node is in Virgo, you may have mastered precision, service, and discernment. But over-identifying with perfection may have limited your expansion. With a North Node in Pisces, you’re now called to trust, flow, and surrender—to soften control and awaken divine imagination. Your Virgo clarity becomes a vessel for your Piscean vision.

This is the path of soul evolution.
Not just doing life differently—becoming someone new.
Not from ego, but from essence.

On Reflection

Your Nodes are a sacred script. They remind you that you’re not here to stay safe in what’s known. You’re here to remember your soul’s agreement, release what no longer serves, and awaken the frequency of your Dharma. This is where karma transforms into grace. Where past-life residue becomes present-moment power. Where destiny is not something to chase, but something to embody. So pause… Feel into your body… Ask yourself:

“What within me is ready to be released? And who am I being invited to become?”

Your Dharma is not a destination—it is your devotion. It is the frequency of your future… calling you now.

Heart to Heart, Elizabeth
