I am fairly new to astrology and need some help interpreting what some things in my natal chart mean and how to apply my north node into my life..

I have sun and venus in cancer 11th house, north node in capricorn 5th house and saturn retrograde in Aquarius 7th house. I think thats where most of my problems come from because im always trying to relive some past experiences. I love being with groups of friends but its not fulfilling to me anymore and also it is difficult for me to relate to other people in general, and one on one relationships usually give me alot of anxiety and make me feel misunderstood.. also doesnt help that i have mercury in the 12th..

But what im asking here is how do i use my north node more that will be beneficial to me? Right now in my life i feel like i have no friends and am just a loner and school,work and home is all that i have in my life and no time to have fun.. and the only time i feel happy is at home and with my family. How do i change that??

Hi DazedandConfused,

The North Node, also known as the Dragons head, represents among other things our challenges in this lifetime. On the contrary the South Node (The Dragon´s tail) represents the gifts and traits that already belong to your personality, and therefore are very easy to use. You have the South Node on the 11th house, which represents friends, networking and social community. And you also have the Sun in the 11th, so for quite some time that must have quite easy for you to handle.
I, as you, also have the North Node on the 5th. Self expression is the key here, and you must learn how to use it to your benefit.
It´s actually not bad that you´re going through a reclusive phase, in my understanding it´s a sign that the South Node was used for long, and therefore made you slow your evolution down. You´re still very young to talk about kids (other 5th house challenge), so I suggest you find ways to work out your more creative side, even if just as a hobby, music, acting, anything that expresses who you are will be ultimately gratifying.

Please be aware that the reclusive fase and reliving of past experiences may also be caused by progressions or transits that are passing by you now, so it may be transitory.

One question though: Do you know if your Sun is conjuct the South Node?

Hope to have brought you some answers ;).

Routing for you!

Thankyou very much Bea Burgos. You said I need to work out my creative side but actually i do it everyday ha. Im in a jazz band and play music everyday and also take art classes and draw everyday and also want to be an artist as a career but yet i still feel like my life is not moving forward at all.

Also you said that self expression is the key but my ascendant is in leo and i have saturn opposing it in aquarius seventh house and i heard that isnt very helpful for self expression. And I think i have sun and venus conjunct south node..  My south node is 0 degrees cancer and i have sun 3 degrees and venus 6 degrees cancer so you tell me hah.
