The Houses
To understand the houses, or "sections" of the birthchart, you?ll need to have your birth chart in hand, and look at which one of the 12 sections of the chart your Nodes fall in?remembering that the North Node looks like a set of head-phones, and the South Node looks like its reversed image: a horseshoe. If you don?t have your chart, there are numerous sites on the internet which will show you your chart, for free, in minutes.
If however, you don?t have your birth time?which many people don?t have?the house information won?t be accurate, because it?s based on the time of your birth.
The house description of the Nodes always tells us in what area of our life things are happening, and where attention is needed to be paid. We are advised to move towards the area of life ruled by the house of the North Node, and away from the limitations of the house that holds the South Node.
However, remember that it is a polar axis we?re describing, and the opposing houses always have elements in common with each other. If you use the high expression of the South Node house, almost as a natural talent, you are doing well. And when you reach for the high expression of the North Node house, you are stretching beyond your comfort zone to maximize all you can be.
It is good to remember with both the sign and house description of the South Node, that there is an emotional memory here?unconscious, but similar to a dream that we can?t quite remember?the South reminds us of what we didn?t get right earlier in this life or in a former life. So be gentle with yourself in this area of life ruled by the South Node, as this is where you?ve experienced wounding before. Whether we did it, or it was done to us, the ?emotional hangover? may feel somewhat similar. Elizabeth Spring www.elizabethspring.com
