The shift of the Lunar Nodes to the Aries/Libra axis
The Lunar Nodes are not planets or asteroids, but spiritual celestial coordinates calculated from the orbits of the Sun and Moon.
The orbit of the Lunar Nodes is in opposite directions through the zodiac and its full cycle takes an average of 18.5 to 19 years, so every two decades we see a repetition of the theme that is then current for all of us. The last time with the Lunar Nodes on the Aries/Libra axis was from December 27, 2004 to June 22, 2006. 
The North Node and South Node symbolize collective and karmic lessons about future and past and how to balance them.
From July 18, 2023 to January 11, 2025, the Lunar Nodes are on the Aries/Libra axis.
In the next 18 months, our collective attention will be focused on the theme of independence versus dependency and how we as a society can grow towards awareness and balance.
With the South Node in Libra, it is mainly about commitment in the relationship and that indicates challenges, but also more acceptance of connections between people of the same gender, orientation or origin.
In the next 1.5 years we will be less concerned with socially acceptable norms and social expectations, but we will follow our own individual path within society.
Behind the facade of ‘how it should be’ and conditioned behavior, the North Node in Aries is what the soul wants, the independent will, the true essence.
Collectively, this is a unique opportunity to break through all the facades to see what the true essence is. Therefore, sacrifices must be made.
No more blindly following trends or influencers, but take more time for yourself, feel good with and in your own body, being yourself without a facade or an externally imposed ideal image.
On an individual level, it’s about how you relate to the other.
Rediscovering your inner self means you have to let go of the external expectation.
Until January 2025, the theme of “me” versus “we” on the Aries/Libra axis will lead to a large increase in street violence, domestic violence, divorces or break-ups, especially for those with their natal Sun in Aries or Libra.
Relationships that endure the karmic trials of these 18 months remain unbreakable.
A breakup clears the way for the next step on your evolutionary path.
This cycle of the Lunar Nodes on the Aries/Libra axis teaches you to grow from self-awareness to enter into a personal and powerful relationship with yourself while maintaining autonomy.
Indecision and co-dependency are exchanged for confidence in ourselves. Learn to live without fear. Issues from the past are worked out and completed.
Lessons will be learned, the book will be closed. People or situations from the past come back to you, but now with better and healthy conditions.
The cycles of the Lunar Nodes are intertwined with the cycles of the eclipses.
Thus, the Eclipses are also shifting to the Aries/Libra axis, signaling the beginning of a new eclipse cycle in which inevitable shifts in relationships and interaction will take place.
Influence of the Nodes in Aries/Libra for all zodiac signs, ascendant, Sun or Moon
ARIES (March 20 – April 19)
For the first time since late 2004/mid 2006, the Lunar Nodes are back on the polarity Aries (yourself)/Libra (relationship). The Nodes are connected to karma, so Aries can meet a new partner connected to life lessons from 18-19 years ago.
Themes from that period(s) that have to do with personal identity and independence recur.
Aries notices that evolutionary shifts are taking place with partnerships, both personal and business, until mid-January 2025.

What were your expectations then? Look for patterns related to work/health/stress and the involvement of a close partner. What went wrong then is now balanced.
Due to a spouse/parent/co-founder or colleague, there may be stress or possible health problems. By setting your limits and following your calling, balance can be restored. Everything changes, including you. Taurus prefers to leave things as they are as much as possible, so there is a challenge here.

Themes from 2004/2006 about self-development, creativity, pregnancy, babies, school-going children, young people, teaching, guiding or leading young people and parenting from the previous cycle will return symbolically.
