Taurus and Scorpio are the signs that rule money, power and sensuality. If you born with a Touro north node or a Scorpio north node, your destiny involves learning to balance the spiritual and material worlds. These nodes exude sexual prowess, earthy sensuality and power. Channeling these dynamic forces in healthy, balanced ways can be a challenge, as these lunar nodes are prone to extremes. You are often pulled between the practical and mystical, the sensible and the spiritual.

Taurus south node/Scorpio north node people are learning to embrace “what could be” instead of fixating on “what is.” They have spent lifetimes steeped in material world as hardworking, practical people. They enjoyed spending money, and could resurface as arbiters of luxury and fine taste. Taurus rules the senses: touch, taste, smell, sound, sight. They might be gifted artists and musicians (Prince and Justin Bieber were both born with Scorpio north node) or have a keen sense of style (like iconic fashion designer Coco Chanel).

This lifetime, indulgence and hedonism can be their downfall. Their Scorpio north node pries them away from the physical and into the spiritual realm. Scorpio north node people are learning about life beyond their senses and daily habits (work, eat, sleep, drink, screw, repeat). Scorpio also rules wealth and investments. These people are learning to make their money work for them, instead of just working for their money.

On the flip side, Taurus north node/Scorpio south node people have arrived here to work! In past lives, they were powerful and privileged people who were often born into wealth.  They may have been advisors to royalty or political leaders, working masterfully behind the scenes. Now, it’s their time to step into a position of public power, rolling up their sleeves and learning to be the providers, earners and do-ers. In this lifetime, inherited wealth or status is a burden, not a blessing. They yearn to be bootstrappers, proving that they can do it themselves! Many Scorpio south nodes need to break free of “golden handcuffs.” For example, they may have overprotective families who control them with emotional blackmail or often, by financing their lives (thereby eliminating the “need” to work). Fighting to be self-sufficient is often a struggle. What Taurus north node people should do is use their money, connections and influence to help open doors for people who don’t have their privilege.

Scorpio is a mysterious sign, and the Scorpio south node’s challenge is to shed a veil of secrecy. While anonymity protected them in past lives, too much privacy now creates trouble. (Case in point: Scorpio south node Hillary Clinton’s private email account that led to a federal investigation.) These people can even earn a reputation as untrustworthy and calculating. Some Scorpio south node people are born into families with deep, dark secrets: addiction, abuse, corruption, crime. Their soul work is to move past shame. Taurus rules the throat chakra; Taurus north nodes are learning to speak out loud.
