Episode Description from the Publisher

Every so often the sky changes the direction it is asking us to grow in, and not for a day but for the next year and a half. On July 26 the lunar nodes moved into Aquarius and Leo, and this is one of the most important shifts of the whole year, and almost nobody is talking about it. In this minisode I break down what your North Node and South Node actually are, the compass of your soul, and what this new chapter is asking of all of us. The North Node in Aquarius points us toward authenticity, community, freedom, and the courage to be exactly who we are. The South Node in Leo shows us the need for approval and applause we are being invited to gently release. This is also the axis the eclipses will move along now, so these themes will keep showing up in your life and in the world over the next eighteen months. I share a simple journaling practice to work with the shift and one line to say out loud as you step onto the path your soul has been pointing you toward all along. Topics Covered: What the lunar nodes are and why they always work as a pair The South Node as your comfort zone and the North Node as your soul’s direction Why the nodes change signs every eighteen months and reset the lesson for all of us North Node in Aquarius: authenticity, community, freedom, and the future South Node in Leo: releasing the need for approval and the spotlight How this shift moves the eclipse axis onto Aquarius and Leo What the nodes mean on a collective level A journaling practice to honor what you release and reach for what is next Timestamps: [00:00] The sky just changed direction for the next eighteen months [00:45] Welcome and why this shift sets the tone for the next chapter [02:30] What the lunar nodes actually are [06:30] North Node in Aquarius: where we are growing [10:30] South Node in Leo: what we are releasing [14:00] What this means for all of us and the eclipses ahead [16:30] A journaling practice for the new chapter [19:00] Closing: your future is reaching for you Resources: Follow Spirit Daughter on Instagram Visit the Spirit Daughter Website Get my book Spirit Daughter Get your Free Natal Chart to find your North and South Nodes Book a Natal Chart Reading Try the Moment App for free Get the Leo Season Workbook See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
