Lunar Node - Astrological Significance

Astrological Significance

In Western Astrology only the north node is usually marked in horoscopes, as the south node is by definition at the opposite point in the chart. In Vedic Astrology, the north and south nodes are called Rahu and Ketu respectively, and both are marked in the chart.

Nodes always move retrograde and are considered natural malefics. There is no consensus on their special aspects.
