What South Node does in a chart
South Node describes your past-life gifts and comfort zone to grow beyond. Its sign says in what style, and its house says in which part of life.
South 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. South Node in Cancer takes on that style.
The other node
The two lunar nodes are always opposite each other, so a South Node in Cancer means a North Node in Capricorn. Your soul's destiny and growth direction this lifetime sits in Capricorn, and the two are read together as one axis.
