Moon Nodes in General
The North Node signifies the direction in which a person should develop or progress. Failing to do so often results in not-so-pleasant consequences. In the early stages of life, people tend to be entrenched in the negative traits indicated by the South Node. It takes time and active development for individuals to orient themselves more towards the direction of the North Node.
The North Node is calculated where the paths of the Moon and the Sun intersect. From this, it can be inferred that the position of the North Node shows us the direction of our true development. If one continues to live automatically based on past habits, their behaviors will reflect the negative traits indicated by the South Node. It’s important not to swing from one extreme to another but to maintain a balanced awareness of the capabilities of both Nodes.
North Node in 6th House or Virgo / South Node in 12th House or Pisces
In this combination, one could generally conclude that it signifies “grand visions that could be achievable.” Virgo is known for being industrious, detail-oriented, efficient, and striving for perfection. On the other hand, Pisces brings awareness of depth and breadth, artistic expression, mysticism, and humanism. The combination of these two opposites, if realized, can be an excellent blend and yield a practical visionary. This doesn’t happen easily, and in the early stages of life, Virgo traits may feel unfamiliar, boring, insignificant and challenging. Instead it is natural for individuals with these Nodes to be drawn to mystical depths and painting the big picture. Pisces is not interested in irrelevant details; those who are interested can handle them. The large scale of things are more important…until time passes, and the individual gradually realizes that nothing concrete isn’t really happening. Those grand visions don’t never materialize, and even everyday matters may be left unfinished.
The challenge and fortune of this setup lie in the fact that as the person gradually starts to concretely do things, including those insignificant details, they notice that something is finally happening. Something larger is slowly built from small, everyday actions, and previous visions and aspirations actually begin to take shape, this time in reality. “I can truly be an artist for a living (as long as I also take care of the kids, refine my painting technique, and take on additional jobs if art doesn’t provide enough income)”. It requires a lot of time, practice, and correction of flaws and behaviors before dreams are finally realized. That is the direction of Virgo and those dreams are waiting there.
Relationships and Romantic Partnerships
In the context of romantic relationships, North Node in 6th house or Virgo may manifest as the person not naturally taking responsibility in the relationship. If a couple shares a home, this might be evident in neglecting shared household chores. Another example could be when planning a joint vacation, practical arrangements and other preparations are left to the other partner. The person with this configuration would rather focus on other things now and deal with vacation details closer to the departure. The mindset is, “Everything will work out.” However, if certain things are not planned in advance, something important may be lost…and with this Moon Nodes configuration, it usually does. All this neglect can cause frustration and anger in the other partner, negatively affecting the relationship.
Career and Work
Work is Virgo’s domain. If a person has not yet embraced the direction of their North Node, mundane work becomes challenging. At the very least, it is unappealing because practical and dull tasks do not motivate them. Ideally, this person would thrive in a job where they can concretely express the depth, artistic flair, and visionary ability of Pisces. Moreover, if the job is varied and not necessarily bound by strict rules of presence and punctuality, it would serve this type of person best. In such a work environment, they could accomplish a lot. However, it’s important to remember that work often involves repetition and can be boring at times. The individual with Pisces in the South Node must learn to accept this.
