North Node in Scorpio
The North Node in Scorpio grows by letting go and letting people close. Comfort and security come naturally, with the South Node in Taurus; the growth is in intimacy, change and trusting what you cannot hold.
You have had the same favourite restaurant for a decade, the same order there, and a quiet dread of the day it closes.
The North Node is in Scorpio in your chart, and the South Node in Taurus. Taurus gave you steadiness: patience, good taste, a sure hand with money and the knack of making any room comfortable. Scorpio asks you to put some of that comfort at risk, for something richer than comfort.
Holding on
What you have, you keep: things, habits, people, opinions. The steadiness is a gift, and it slides into stubbornness when life asks you to change. You can wait out almost anything, including chances that were not going to come twice.
Shared things
Scorpio grows through real closeness. Telling someone the thing you have never said. Joining your money with someone else’s, and your life with it. Facing a loss or an ending instead of sitting very still until it passes. Pluto and, by old rule, Mars rule Scorpio; their places in your chart show where change finds you.
Let one thing go this year that you are keeping only because it is familiar.
Stronger for it
Each change you allow leaves you richer in what matters: more trust, more depth, a bond you could not have had while you held everything at arm’s length.
