The North Node: Evolutionary Upcycle

In my last post, I talked about the Saturnian influence happening around this solstice and over the next several weeks.

Saturn is one of the personal planets, that also has an interpersonal and collective resonance.

It’s a karmic influence and considering that we will be moving into September with Pluto backtracking into 29 degrees of Capricorn (a very karmic position), as conscious entrepreneurial leaders, taking stock of our own personal karma (by which I mean the places in our lives where we are experiencing distressing or dissonant patterns that feel perhaps beyond our influence or control) and seeing where at least where we do hold some “vibrational” agency is, I believe at this point the most significant way we can contribute to the strong, restive, evolutionary current that is behind the chaos and uncertainty we’re seeing currently.

As someone with a defined root centre in my Human Design, I’m highly-connected to the energy of the collective and experience the visceral fear that’s been brought to the surface, as we face what feels at least like a future that is increasingly uncertain (that’s enough to almost do us in as humans, who love to believe we’re in control.) Clearing this energy and tending to, primarily ancestral and family karma has taken a lot of my focus.

Lately, I’ve felt the pressure (for the most part internally motivated but still) to step up my service in the world and to ask more of myself. It’s challenging me around becoming more visible and connecting more with soul-community (at least right now, I have an idea of what that looks like for expressing my sacred work through my business offerings even though these haven’t fully gelled/revealed themselves fully just yet. )

What I am solid in is knowing that they are aligned with my Human Design and what to me is the most fascinating karmic influence in both the natal chart and the Human Design imprint: the North Node.

Do you know the position of the North and South Node in your chart? I’m gonna throw down the gauntlet, at least a wee bit:)

For us leaders at this time, reckoning with where your soul is calling you to evolve towards in this lifetime (the sign and house position of your North Node reflect this); acknowledging, honouring and bringing with you the positive traits and geniuses found in the position our South Node is located; and healing/integrating the shadow qualities around both is essential work at this time, in my view.

(I also know it will impact your business in important ways: helping you clarify your market/niche, your marketing, your branding, you messaging. All the above…If you don’t have this birth chart information and require help interpreting it, I have a book and a mini audio e-course that can help you and of course there are plenty of free resources online besides.)

Whatever you choose, taking a bit of time to research this will pay off in important ways. And if you know your North Node position, consider journaling or at least deeply contemplating where you are in this aspect of your soul’s journey (a welcome idea as we move from busy, intellectual Gemini into receptive, emotional, intuitive Cancer season this week.)

The North Node is not an easy thing to embody in this lifetime. It usually asks us to have more courage, as well as to commit to a consistent practice to Keep Going in order to avoid lapsing into our familiar patterns that we know aren’t working for us. It probably/definitely will trigger stuff.

But in my experience, really connecting with the variety and depth in the expressions of the North Node and seeing what small steps we might take towards being more of that can clear karma while leading us directly and immediately towards greater fulfillment and alignment with our soul’s purpose! And the more steps you take, the more the layers unfold.

Imagine if more of our leaders were willing to do this kind of soul work?

I pulled a card from CBR’s Animal Spirit Oracle, asking the question: what do entrepreneurial leaders and conscious entrepreneurs and business-women need to know about regarding this karmic cycle and stepping into their purpose?

The card I pulled was the Pig Spirit Oracle, with the message of using your mind wisely. It’s a great reminder that you can trust your intellect so long as it’s balanced with compassion and wisdom for yourself and others (when it’s not, it’s totally ok, you just may not be in your “right” mind.) It also notes that we can trust our decision-making ability when we stay grounded and truly humble (vs performances of humility arising from a confused desire to be approved of/avoid criticism or confrontation,) enough to know we may not have sufficient information and not to draw hasty conclusions. The reminder to not get lost inside our heads or feelings is an important one, especially as Mercury prepares to move into the sign of Cancer.
