Though Pluto has to do with death and the underworld and all that, a much easier and understandable explanation was given me through a transit of Jupiter square Pluto I experienced once. Jupiter (gain, expansion, stuff!) was in square (imperfect emnity, an aspect I say is like two people arm-wrestling) with Pluto (getting rid of something = it’s death, you know).

I had a lot of crap and I reached a critical juncture: I just had to throw some of it out or get a new place to live! Jupiter square Pluto, get it?

So if Pluto is “getting rid of something,” you look at its sign and house placement to determine how it operates and in what area of life.

Thanks, Art. The nodes are known as Rahu and Ketu in Indian mythology.

Good article – I don’t know much about the nodes and they don’t have any real mythology associated with them, which adds to my seemingly incomprehensible lack of grasp of the sibject. I had to bookmark the article, however; it seems that the Ocala, Florida public library wouldn’t allow a Internet connection to Sasstrology.com as it represents such a radical divergence from the sexual attitude they expect of library patrons … you know, like knowledge and open communication. Such things a library just cannot allow!

Awesome article.

The last man that I KNOW that I will be heartbroken for… was a Capricorn whose Moon-conjunct-Mars conjunct my Libra South Node.

Did it feel intense! When I first saw him, I thought, “Hm.” 9 months later, found out he thought the same, too. Then it didn’t work out and now… wow.

Moon-Mars conjunct southnode. Thoughts?

Lots of emotion there – both past AND present!

Ahh, interesting. So if My True Node is Aquarius, that means my South Node is Leo? That also means that my South Node conjuncts my Sun by sign.

For my sweetheart, his True Node is Gemini, making his South Node in conjunct with my moon. His Ascendant conjunct my Sun and South Node, and my True Node conjuncts his Venus! =O

Found it – good to know. (Or confirm, I should say.)

Thanks for the reference, NR!

I have an interesting thing I found. My current relationship has BOTH of our nodes opposite each other. His is MC-Aq/S-Leo and mine is MC-Leo/S-Aq… and both with Moons in Leo. Good match?

A previous relation (one that I have never really gotten over)… he had the MC conjuncting my Asc (both with Neptune), and His Venus conjuncts my south node. Still trying to wrap my head around the meaning of this one. Any thoughts?

Astro.com will tell you all you want

See the glyph Jeff used on the home page? Look for that in the chart. That’s the north node. The south node is always 180 degrees from that (the chart won’t show the south node). So if NN is 10 Taurus, the SN is 10 Scorpio.

The NN will be listed in the astro.com chart table as “true node.”
