On May 5th, the Lunar Nodes will shift from Cancer/Capricorn to the Gemini/Sagittarius axis. 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 Nodes on the Gemini & Sagittarius Axis
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.
2020 is when the Nodal Axis will shift from Cancer/Capricorn and move into a new cycle in Gemini/Sagittarius. With the North Node transitioning into the air element, it will bring focus on communications, mental processes, and learning. Perhaps, even opportunities with education systems. Since Gemini, is ruled by the planet Mercury, this axis is going to expand and activate your mind. This tells me there is something important that you have been thinking or worrying about. With the South Node in Sagittarius, it is encouraging faith, spirituality, and optimism. This just might be a blessing in disguise for you to expand your mental and spiritual horizons.
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.
