What North Node does in a chart

North Node describes your soul's destiny and growth direction this lifetime. Its sign says in what style, and its house says in which part of life.

North Node in Cancer

Cancer is a cardinal water sign. Water signs feel, remember, protect, and read the room before anyone speaks. Cardinal signs start things. They open each season and like to lead. North Node in Cancer takes on that style.

The other node

The two lunar nodes are always opposite each other, so a North Node in Cancer means a South Node in Capricorn. Your past-life gifts and comfort zone to grow beyond sits in Capricorn, and the two are read together as one axis.
