Transit South Node Square Natal Moon

The South Node squares your Moon, stirring the sediment of the past. Old coping strategies tug at fresh emotions, and the body remembers what the mind would rather skip. This time asks you to feel the difference between what truly soothes and what simply keeps you the same.

The square presses on places where comfort and need don’t match. Your Moon wants safety and belonging, and the South Node answers with what has always worked: familiar roles, reflexes, even the voice of a caregiver echoing in your head. You may notice yourself reaching for the old script—people-pleasing, caretaking, numbing—only to feel strangely unsatisfied. The body carries this story too; appetite, sleep, and tension may mirror feelings you learned to carry long ago. It’s not failure, it’s memory trying to keep you safe the only way it knows how.

Working this transit is less about dismantling the past than learning to hold it with gentleness while you choose differently. When the pull arrives, pause and ask what you actually need right now, not what you needed then. Small, present-tense comforts—water, breath, a slower pace, naming the feeling aloud—create space between impulse and care. Let there be gratitude for what once protected you and permission to retire what no longer does. In that space, tenderness becomes a new kind of strength.
