“Karma is experience, and experience creates memory, and memory creates imagination and desire, and desire creates karma again. If I buy a cup of coffee, that’s karma. I now have that memory that might give me the potential desire for having a cappuccino, and I walk into Starbucks, and there’s karma all over again.” Deepak Chopra
The North Node of the Moon is an extremely important point on everyone’s map. What is the North Node of the Moon? It is the point where the moon’s orbit intersects the Earth’s orbit around the sun, called the ecliptic – something that happens in both the northern hemisphere and the southern hemisphere. Eclipses always occur in the same signs as the signs where the Moon’s Nodes are located. In Uranian, the eclipses occur in the same sector of the 90o cycle (*each sector has 30o) as the ones where the Moon’s conjunctions are located and thus, almost always, they produce fatal events.
The axes of the North Node are the following:
AR/NO: Destiny together with the world, together with the country I am in. Connections with the public. General contacts. Many associations, and alliances. Association or participation of many persons in a project. Social networking. Movement on the street. The routes.
MC/NO: One’s close personal contacts. Soul associations. Inner bonds. Professional ties. Karmic contact. The “others” and me. Participation. Contacts are aimed at a common goal.

The North Node would be the “memories” of our past actions that are imprinted in the present and form the perspectives of the future. Many times the Universe sends us an acquaintance that changes the course of our lives (*for better or worse). Let’s look at some examples…
NO/HA: Ties with difficult prospects. Unpleasant contacts. Relationships that are not very good. Chivalry. Reluctance. The unpleasant experience of such a relationship. Karmic problems. Problems from offending behavior of others. Secret associations and contacts. Issues related to ancient artifacts and studies, waste, and metaphysics. Contacts with widows. Feeling smudged.
SO/NO: Contact the wider public. Personal as well as physical contact. The person will witness an important event. Karma with a person. Contacts during the day. Our karma. Important personal contacts. The ego concerning karma and also the “soul associations- groups” that I have come to in this incarnation.
The North Node & HADES meet (at position 15 in the table) the AD/VU midpoint and this is interpreted as:
AD/VU=HA: Deprivation and great need through the hard knocks of fate.
AD/VU=NO: Contacts and relationships with disabled people. A person who is under the impact of a hard blow of fate.
Isn’t the predictability really incredible?
We turn to the chart of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. A reformist prime minister who used to pretend to be politically active regardless of whether he was no longer in the prime minister’s chair. The former Japanese prime minister was shot twice and killed during a campaign speech. The motives for the murder were economic & religious. The perpetrator’s mother had sold her house and donated all her money to the “Unification Church” and in 2002 she was forced to declare bankruptcy. Abe’s death has shed light on his and his ruling party’s links with the Unification Church, which is known for its conservative and anti-communist stances, including its mass marriages. But let’s see if the North Node of his natal chart predicted any of this.
As you can see in Shinzo Abe’s map the North Node equals MARS, POSEIDON, HADES & KRONOS. These give us an interpretation:
NO/MA: The axis of the erotic approach. The erotic relationship. Giving the relationship a more “formal” tone. Engagement. Working with others. Karmic actions. Injury with or by others. Affairs with tools, metals. Violence.
NO/HA: Ties with difficult prospects. Unpleasant contacts. Relationships that are not very good. Chivalry. Reluctance. The unpleasant experience of such a relationship. Karmic problems. Problems from offending behavior of others. Secret associations and contacts. Issues related to ancient artifacts and studies, waste, and metaphysics. Contacts with widows. Feeling smudged.
NO/KR: Contacts with states, diplomatic missions, and senior state officials or judges. Issues related to the boss. Contacts through teaching. Issues with authorities. Others make rules or “laws”. Legal issues.
NO/PO: The axis of spiritual and intellectual contacts. Contacts with a common karmic background. Contacts with psychics. Issues of ideology.
Position 32 has the midpoint UR/VU and this equals HADES & North Node.
UR/VU=NO: An individual to be investigated, tested, screened, or retested. Someone who is reckless. An association of some people for a joint response to a situation.
UR/VU=HA: Exposure to vulgar acts. Sudden great dangers. Playing dirty games with unforeseen consequences.
Is the North Node our initial and final destination? A question I pose is that I want to put us all in a process of creative thinking.
And we go to one last chart. Ilich Ramírez Sánchez may not mean anything to you as a name. But his nickname will certainly tell you a lot: “Carlos the Jackal“. We’re talking about a terrorist whose name was the number one wanted man on the planet. The third world Carlos was not a leftist, he was not a neo-fascist, and so, without any ideological arsenal to keep the coal in the grate lit, he ended up alone, he and his hunchback, working as a… freelance assassin: he became a mercenary in the employ of dark state powers and secret services in the Arabian territory and beyond.
The North Node as you can see on the map equals VENUS, VULCANUS & CUPIDO. This gives us an interpretation:
NO/VE: The axis of pleasant contacts and love affairs. The vanity of others-the vanity of the crowd. The wives of others. Destiny with women. Reconciliation. The comfort I have with others.
NO/VU: The axis of willingness. Contacts that have the potential to change the flow of things. The big issues. Fateful meetings and contacts. My karmic companions. The strong shapes, the powerful associations. Big and powerful encounters.
NO/CU: Family ties. Common interests or associations. Establishment or associations. Family members. Ties with family or artists. Formalization through marriage. Matters relating to marriage. The school. Pleasant agreements, good contracts. The party.
But the axes involved speak quite clearly. At position 23 we have the UR/HA midpoint and the interpretation is:
UR/HA=KN: The person who will suffer a betrayal. Having the resentment of a traitor. Involvement in a murder case.
At the same time MA/HA (*position 15), AS/HA (Position 5) MC/HA (*position 4) is involved and this tells us about:
MA/HA=NO: Contacts regarding murder or other related action.
MC/HA=NO: Grief with others. A destiny shared with unpleasant developments.
AS/HA=NO: Entanglement product of a wrong choice.
In this sign, there is also the SA/UR axis (** Position 19 The axis of rigidity, strife and sudden separation. Unexpected loss. Losses due to haste. Objections to everything that is an obligation-duty. The blackout.) and equals the North Node and also Vulcanus
SA/UR=NO: A person who is present in some separations. Relationships and bonds are destroyed.
SA/UR=VU: A person who ceases to be free in the sense of living under state dependence. Apprehension. Imprisonment.
If you don’t look for the North Node on your chart … you don’t know the course you are headed for.
