The Lunar Nodes are two calculated points formed where the Moon’s orbit intersects the ecliptic, the apparent path of the Sun through the zodiac. The North Node, also called the ascending node, marks the point where the Moon crosses the ecliptic moving northward, while the South Node, or descending node, lies directly opposite it. The Nodes are not physical celestial bodies but mathematical points used in astronomy and astrology. In astrology, they are commonly interpreted as a complementary pair within the natal chart, with their meaning considered through their Zodiac Signs, House placements when available, Aspects, and relationship to the broader chart pattern. Their exact calculated positions can be represented using either the True Node or Mean Node, depending on the method used.
