by Tiffany Harelik, MA, RYT
In 2025, the nodes will shift from Aries/Libra to Pisces/Virgo. This shift highlights a movement away from assertiveness and individuality (Aries/Libra) toward a focus on healing, health, service, and intuition (Pisces/Virgo). For many, this will be a time of changing approaches in service to others and enhancing health and wellness. The South Node shows us what to eliminate, while the North Node shows us what to embrace. Scroll down to get your horoscope.
South Node in Virgo
Strengths of the Virgo archetype include the patience and ability to read the fine print, pay attention to details, and help make order out of chaos. Virgo is an earth sign ruled by Mercury. The South Node shows what needs to be released or eliminated. When the South Node is in Virgo, it shows us where to let go of the challenging Virgo traits.
What to Eliminate
- Overthinking: Over analyzing and worrying lead to anxiety and stress, making it hard to relax or go with the flow. Scripture clearly states “do not be afraid” 365 times.
- Perfectionism: The desire for everything to be flawless can cause frustration, procrastination, or an inability to appreciate progress.
- Over-Criticism: Being overly critical of ourselves and others, leads to harsh judgments that create internal tension, and tension in relationships.
- Control Issues: Ann Lamott reminds us that help is just the sunny side of control. A strong need to control outcomes prevents flexibility and denies acceptance of the unknown. Letting go of control is how we surrender and build faith.
- Workaholism: Overfocusing on work or productivity can lead to burnout and neglect of emotional or spiritual needs.
- FADEing: Fixing, Arguing, Defending, and Explaining create pressure and control issues. What if you did nothing?
North Node in Pisces
Challenges of the Pisces archetype include deception, lack of boundaries, denial, being scattered and unfocused. Pisces is a water sign ruled by Jupiter and Neptune. The North Node shows what needs to be embraced. When the North Node is in Pisces, it shows us which of the best elements of Pisces we can aim to incorporate into our lives and experiences.
What to Embrace
- Compassion: We all deserve more unconditional love, understand, and empathy. This requires we talk less, and listen more. Instead of trying to one up someone, where can we offer kindness and support?
- Creativity: Pisces rules vivid imaginations which fuel artistic expression.
- Intuition: We are born wise. We have physical senses that extend into the metaphysical world. Learn what the sound of your Higher Powers’ voice is, and then to trust your inner voice for higher guidance.
- Flow: The ability to go with the flow and adapt to changing circumstances is needed. What is wanting to unfold organically? Are you allowing it?
- Dreaminess: Welcoming a bit of idealism and dreaming (Neptune) big (Jupiter) inspires hope and opens doors to new possibilities.
- Forgiveness: It’s important to release resentment, allowing for grace, personal peace, and healthier relationships.
- Spirituality: Did you know that Pisces rules Christianity? There is a resurgence in this realm of spirituality and an unfolding of the prophecies of harvesting a million souls.
