I trying to understand a chart that has north node sag 28 / south node gemini and the skipped step jupiter (20) venus (24) degrees virgo in the 4th house. How would you interpet this?
Is the skipped step itself part of HOW the person can bring the south node forward into a new way?
It reflects what the karmic issue is as well as how to resolve the issue. Both. The issue being reflected in the nodal axis and the skipped step planets (along with rulers of both). As a result, with the SN being the resolution node, the soul will be integrating the entire square complex: (the squaring planet and the NN) through the SN. And in that sense absolutely doing the SN in a new way.
I'll set up the main signatures and then invite you to make your best effort at working them out if you so desire. Again I'm choosing to keep this simplified with only these three symbols for now for the sake of learning. Also aware I am not applying evolutionary stage, so I'm being very generic.
The SN in Gemini in the 12th corresponds to a soul who has been developing a lot of knowledge about a lot of things, seeking to learn about the interconnection and interrelationship between many things - sometimes it all making sense and sometimes all the data and information not quite connecting. Thus this SN in general can speak to both a sense of spiritual knowledge, open mindedness, an innocence of thinking, and also the possibility to access "thoughts" from non-physical realms, as well as the possibility of scatteredness, lack of discrimination and discernment relative to what information to let in and what not, what to believe, what is true etc. There can be issues of massive confusion and disarray/loss of meaning relative to nothing clicking or making sense, or trying to make meaning out of reality entirely through the logical faculties which ultimately leads to disillusionment when more data or information comes in and knocks down the sand castle.
This NN corresponds to an ongoing evolutionary growth to develop one's intuition: being an apprentice of one's intuition/ of natural law. This means cultivating discernment etc. and developing a philosophical bottom line for one's work so that all the pieces can make sense and can be put into service in a helpful and useful way.
With a planet squaring both nodes, BOTH nodes are unresolved. So we have to understand the NN in Sag in the 6th in this way as well. Challenges with Sag in the 6th could be issues of control/perfectionism linked to ideologies/ beliefs systems that induce an inner sense of inferiority. Also making mistakes relative to belief systems that distort what is natural, and the subsequent guilt relative to those mistakes. 6th house also corresponds to slave/master or inferiority/superiority dynamics and lessons of true humility. So we can have issues of manifesting in roles such as a servant or slave and adopting patriarchal religious distortions about God/nature that kept them alienated from their own natural ways.
If this is the case, would this mean that through expanding their belief system and how they value themselves through emotional self reliance (4th house) be the HOW in supporting their evolution?
Yes in that this is about their belief system and how they have formed an inner image of themselves, who they known themselves to be. Uncovering their own nature, uncovering their own intuitive and natural way of being. Instead of emotional self reliance (self-reliance being a more Taurus word) the phrase I'd suggest is emotional honesty/ authenticity (Jupiter in the 4th). Relative to Virgo, what Jordyn wrote is really helpful for understanding that.
So the question now to ask is: what is the issue that this soul has been flip flopping between both of those nodes relative to Jupiter in Virgo in the 4th. First connect with the issues and only then try to apply the resolution node.
I know you are new to this, so don't worry about getting it right. Just give it a shot and any efforts is valuable. Feel free to ask any more questions that you need to as well.
Hi Charlotte,
