VENUS AND IT'S NODAL AXIS

All,

We will continue on tomorrow August 10th.

All,

We will now continue by discussing the the N.Node of Venus relative to the natal Venus, the S.Node of Venus, the location of it's planetary ruler, and all the aspects therein.

The N.Node of Venus correlates with the Soul's desire to evolve within it's inner relationship to itself relative to where it has been relative to what has constituted the fundamental sense of meaning for it's life, what it has been valuing that has lead to that sense of meaning, how it has been relating to others because of this, the needs it has had that have been meet through it's own self reliance, and the needs it has had for others to help in sustaining itself. Within this what the Soul has needed to sustain itself through the inherent or learned resources in order to survive in the world itself.

The N.Node of Venus by house, sign, aspects, and the location of it's planetary ruler with aspects to it all correlate with evolving in new ways that lead to new ways of the Soul relating to itself, others, new awareness's of that which leads to a new sense of meaning, and the values that correlate with that, unlocking inherent resources that the Soul had yet to understand or know within itself that allows it to sustain itself in new ways and/ or learning new resources that correlate with it's evolving sense of meaning for living that allow it to establish itself in the world in new ways.

In our ongoing example, above, we will now put the N.Node of Venus in Aquarius in the 1st House. In this context, the existing S.Node in Aries in the 3rd, it's ruler in Sagittarius in the 11th squaring Saturn in Virgo in the 8th which are being integrated through the natal Venus in Taurus in the 4th in opposition to Neptune in Scorpio in the 10th, we can understand the Soul's evolution relative to it's inner relationship to itself. In essence, the Soul is recreating it's past yet with an intention of breaking free, liberating, from that past: the N.Node in Aquarius in the 1st House.

By recreating the past the Soul through this N.Node is learning what to sustain from that past that still holds meaning and value, and that which does not. It will recreate relationships with others from it's past in order to objectify the dynamics within them so that a deeper sense of self knowledge takes place within the Soul itself. In this way the Soul is not only evolving it's inner relationship to itself but becoming ever more aware of whom and what types of other people it wants in it's life, and those that it no longer has any need or use for.

Through this N.Node the Soul will evolve into new ways of finding and discovering how to integrate itself into the world, it's culture of birth or beyond, relative to wanting to help others through some kind of work that is meaningful to the Soul. This could include checking out different kinds of existing organizations of like minded people whose intentions is to do just that with the intent of finding the one that most closely resonates with it's own nature.

Above all else this N.Node of Venus correlates with the Soul's intention of objectify itself: all the inner dynamics within it. The intent of course is one of total self knowledge within the ongoing intention of accepting the responsibility for itself, and that which it has created. In turn the Soul will naturally desire to relate to others in exactly the same way: to help other objectify themselves. In this way the Soul is setting the stage for itself to affect maximum evolution within the current life, and setting the stage for the increasing evolutionary pace in the lives to come. In this way the Soul can also help others do exactly the same thing.

This is but a small example of what these symbols can mean.

If you have any questions please ask.

Hi Rad,

Wath do we do when a chart is very complex and there are a lot of planets in major  aspects whith both de nodes and the natal planet. Do we consider squares and oppositions as more important?

Thank you.

Hi Maya,

"Wath do we do when a chart is very complex and there are a lot of planets in major  aspects whith both de nodes and the natal planet. Do we consider squares and oppositions as more important?"

***********

No, they are not more important. The entire chart must be considered as equal within itself. In so many ways a natal chart is like a hologram through which a prism reflects the dimensions in time that correlate with the Soul's ongoing evolutionary journey: past, present, and the future. Seen or understood in this way reflects how the past comes forwards and conditions the nature of the moment in which the current life dynamics that the Soul has created reflect that past. As the same time the future evolution of the Soul, and the dynamics necessary for that to happen, are also reflected in each moment that are affecting those current life dynamics. Thus the interaction with the Nodes of all the planets relative to the natal planets: the current life or moment.

So all aspects, all the various dimensions that can be seen via the evolutionary hologram/ prism are co-equal.

All,

The final step in understanding Venus and it's Nodes is to locate, by house, sign, and aspects the planetary ruler of the N.Node of Venus.

In our ongoing example, above, we will now put the ruler of the N.Node of Venus, Uranus, in Libra and in the 9th House. We have already, through the examples we have used, established the context through which we can now understand this placement.

That context, in essence, has the Soul desiring to seek out all kinds of information about the nature of things, S.Node of Venus in Aries in the 3rd, from a diversity of sources by initiating relationships will all kinds of diverse people in all kinds of walks of life: the ruler Mars in Sagittarius in the 11th. In so doing the Soul was desiring to find out about it's own individuality through comparison and contrast: the archetype of Venus. I am not this, I am not that, so what am I ? In so doing the Soul desired to form deeper and intimate relationships with those that it felt some degree of simpatico with: Mars square the Saturn in Virgo in the 8th that lead to evolving it's inner relationship to itself, and others, by way of psychoanalyzing the dynamics within itself, and those others, that it drew into its personal and intimate life: why this, why that, why do you feel this way, why do I feel that way, etc, etc, etc.

In so doing, the Soul created circumstances for itself in which it created conflict in this way with others, conflicts born from trying to make like minded friends into intimate others in which the fundamental differences between it and others became magnified. In this way, the Soul created abandonment issues, trust issues, psychological manipulation issues born of desiring to get it's needs met, being used or being the one using another, and so on.

Coming into the current life the Soul choose to have Venus in Taurus in the 4th, and in opposition to Neptune in Scorpio in the 10th. In essence the Soul desired to slow itself down, to learn how to develop an inner sense of security, self reliance, to choose it's environment to live in a very careful way that it could call home, and to find a meaningful work or job function through which to sustain itself in the world, and to actualize it's sincere desire to help others or the world in some way.

The current life N.Node of Venus is in Aquarius in the 1st, the desire to create a new cycle of relating to itself and others, a desire to liberate from the prior ways of being within itself, and thus how it had been relating to others, to quicken it's evolutionary pace for itself, and to help others as well. To set in motion new directions that required a fundamental freedom to do so which was a perfect evolutionary reflection of, going back to its evolutionary history starting with the S.Node of Venus in Aries, what had come before, but now in new ways.

With the planetary ruler of the N.Node being Uranus in Libra in the 9th House we can now see that the Soul is intending to relate to itself in new ways by trying to discover an underlying philosophical way of understanding life itself. A binding philosophy that will serve as a foundation upon which the Soul can 'interpret' the nature of anything through including it's own inner being, and the beings of others. This would then serve as a comprehensive way of understanding and integrating all that has come before, and a way of integrating and understanding all that it will be creating and experiencing in the current life that will propel it into it's next life.

This will be integrated through the current life Venus in Taurus in the 4th by way of changing how the Soul relates to itself: it's egocentric structure. In turn, this will affect what constitutes a sense of personal emotional security that affects it's ability to sustain itself. It will serve as a vehicle through which to incorporate and integrate the ongoing sense of what is meaningful as the Soul continues to expand it's personal sense of self awareness. In turn, it will evolve how and why the Soul is choosing the types of people to relate too, of whom to bring into it's life in ever more closer ways, and serve as the very basis of what the relationships are based and founded upon in the first place: the core philosophical simpatico through which the Soul, and those it chooses to form relationships too, relate.  

Within this the Soul, via the location of the planetary ruler of the N.Node of Venus, is desiring to learn how to truly listen to others in such a way as to 'hear' their realities as they actually exist for them versus projecting upon them that which they think their realities are as defined by the Soul's own subjective reality. In this way, the Soul is desiring to learn how to relate to others in this new way, and have others do the same for this Soul. In turn, this sets in motion a new desire in the Soul of wanting to give to others what they actually need, and to have others do the same for this Soul. In this way, the Soul is desiring to learn how to be in relationships that are defined equally: not who is more or less important than the other. That each others needs are co-equal.

Within this the Soul is desiring to change it's inner relationship within itself by shifting its focus from the left to right brain: from the deductive to the inductive. In this way, the Soul is learning how to see the 'whole' of it's life at all times, and to understand the 'whole' of others life in the exact same way. This new way of understanding itself, and others, evolves the Soul's way of relating to itself and others as a result.

The Soul is also desiring to learn how to 'lighten' up within itself due to the intensity of it's most recent prior lives that could have included intense traumas of different kinds: the planetary ruler of the S.Node of Venus in the 11th square the Saturn in the 8th. This new need within the Soul will thus manifest as a humor that is defined by the 'vision of the absurd': Uranus in Libra in the 9th. Thus, the Soul will be learning how to laugh at itself, and help others do exactly the same.

We could go on and on but this simple example will illustrate how to understand and integrate the planetary ruler of the N.Node of Venus into your understanding of the entire relationship between Venus and it's Nodal axis. You can apply this to you own birth charts, and those of others.

If you have any questions please ask them of me now.

Hi Rad,

Could you share your thoughts on NN Venus conjunct natal Venus and both conjunct SN moon? Venus is also NN moon ruler.
I keep stopped on a contradiction between the evolutionary desires, the past and the future.

Also, is there a general understanding in the chart for NN of one planet conjunct south node of another and both conjunct a natal planet?

And thank you very much for conducting this thread. It produced some very helpful questions, light on some answers and hopefully some new dendrites

All the best,
Helena

Hi Helena,

"Could you share your thoughts on NN Venus conjunct natal Venus and both conjunct SN moon? Venus is also NN moon ruler."

**********

This will correlate to the Soul's desire and evolutionary need to recover, repeat, redo relationships that the Soul has had with core others in the past. The dynamics of those relationships with each one from the past will be the defining dynamics in the context of the current life for two reasons. One is that something was not finished that needs to be finished, and the other is then to recreate the relationships so that they can evolve beyond those dynamics. Those new dynamics will be reflected in the actual house/ sign of the N.Node of Venus conjunct the natal Venus as well as the house/ sign of the N.Node of the Moon, and all the aspects to them from other planets.

**************

"Also, is there a general understanding in the chart for NN of one planet conjunct south node of another and both conjunct a natal planet?"

*************

Here again the archetypal intent is to recover, repeat, etc dynamics from the past that are being brought forwards with the intent of evolving those dynamics: the N.Node of a planet .. the evolution .. conjunct the S.Node of another planet .. existing dynamics ... in the context of the current life: conjunction to the natal planet.

And remember that these sorts of evolutionary/ karmic issues can only be correctly understood by way of the core EA paradigm in the birth chart itself.

And thank you very much for conducting this thread. It produced some very helpful questions, light on some answers and hopefully some new dendrites..

Thank you for saying this Helena ...

Thank you for your answers and your time, Rad.

It is indeed a blessing to have found EA and this community.

Best for All,
