On January 19, 2022, the Lunar Nodes will shift from Gemini/Sagittarius axis to Taurus/Scorpio. This invisible axis point also known as the Axis of Fate holds some pretty incredible symbolism. Since the nodes represent cycles of spiritual and karmic influences, they can be compared to portals that connect humankind with Universal Consciousness.
The Taurus & Scorpio Axis
2022 is when the Nodal Axis starts a new cycle. The nodes are considered an axis of fate that is past and future-based. It is the bridge from that which is familiar to who you are becoming. You are born with a personal nodal placement, and the North Node’s zodiac sign represents the journey of your soul growth. It is considered an auspicious point and is often referred to as the Dragon’s Head.
The North Node transitioning into the earthy Taurus brings focus on security, finances, stability, earth energy, food, relationships, sensuality, and the throat chakra. Perhaps, even opportunities with financial or relationship stability. The North represents an influx of karmic experiences that have the undertones of fate. This is especially significant if you have Taurus planets, or the angles of your chart are Taurus. This will be an eventful year.
With the South Node in Scorpio, it brings themes of transformation and sacrifice. Traditionally, the South Node represents soul gifts and the place you turn to when facing life’s difficulties. Yet, it isn’t where destiny is taking you, and the North Node is the Destiny point. As the nodes transit and connect with your personal chart, this is when events can occur. This is especially true if you have planets in Scorpio or have Scorpio rising.
Discover your Destiny Point (North Node)
As the nodes transit, they need to make a connection with your personal planets or the angles in your chart. This is when you can predict opportunities, or themes related to your Soul’s Purpose to be revealed. A Nodal Return isn’t the only time when we can tap into our true calling and align with our cosmic destiny. As your birth chart’s planets progress, there will be alignments with the nodes that create specific dates of growth, setbacks, or unfoldment. If an eclipse or planetary transit is aligning with your Nodal Axis, this is an additional clue to when events can occur that take you in a new direction that is aligned with your soul.
