Nodes of Destiny and Karma: Navigating the Pisces-Virgo Axis in 2025
The Nodes of Destiny, also known as the North and South Nodes, are not actual celestial bodies but rather mathematical points that represent the intersection of the Moon’s orbit with the ecliptic. In astrology, these nodes hold significant meaning, symbolizing our karmic path and soul’s purpose.
On January 11, 2025, the North and South Nodes will change axis. The North Node will enter Pisces, while the South Node will simultaneously enter Virgo. This transit, lasting until July 26, 2026, will influence our collective and individual journeys in profound ways.

Of course making time for anything (let alone ourselves) is easier said than done. Some of our work will involve cracking open your calendar or assessing the resources (time, money and energy) you spend on certain people and activities. After you choose what you want to commit to, I’ll help you re-prioritize if necessary, create a goal-results strategy and encourage you throughout the process to achieve return on investment in yourself.
