South Node 8th House Scorpio, North Node 2nd House Taurus



Away with the drama and trauma and melodrama! No more tragic love stories, no more battles for power, struggles for revenge, hidden agendas and all the stuff of great novels. Just peace. Serenity. That?s the movement away from the South Node in the 8th house to the North Node in the 2nd house. Your Soul needs a rest?

The 8th house South Node, ruled by Pluto, has struggled to transform and be re-born like the phoenix, and somewhere in all that struggling has come an exhaustion and weariness of the spirit. This life is now one where you are being called to rethink your values, your priorities, and put the Venus ruled 2nd house of Taurus back in its position of prominence. This is not the Venus of the struggle, but of gentle inquiry---the one that has the savvy to pick her own battles and chooses the ?mutual fund? that agrees with her political and ecological consciousness. This is the Venus that soothes us, and reminds us of our roots in this good earth. She?d rather write a poem than put on the dress that makes her into the femme fatale. She finds the sacred in the commonplace, and makes it extraordinary.

The South Node here has great gold in its shadowy inheritance---it has a hard won wisdom and occult knowledge that can serve us well when used right. Certainly astrologers and those interested in astrology, have resources here in the 8th house. But as always with the South Node there is the defeat and despair of what we didn?t get right earlier in this life or in a former life. We paid too much attention to other people?s business rather than our own. We were the power behind the throne, or the one who ?borrowed? another?s values, glory, money or husband. Our own yearning for these things seemed to make it acceptable, but we missed the basic course in ethics and compassion and fairness.

This new North Node in the 2nd house is deceptively easy---stay away from all that. Just be good and mind your own business. Enjoy yourself, don?t tell me you have to ?work?---instead, take a picnic to the beach to watch that beautiful sunset. Easy?.yes?!
