As you grow older, you stretch farther and farther to reach your North Node in Aries which makes you self-assertive, independent, and full of life force. In previous lifetimes you abdicated responsibility for your own life to others, letting partners make all the decisions for you. Now you are here to be an individual, and circumstances in your life will always conspire to force you into decisive action made after little or no consultation. Until you begin spiritual or psychological work on yourself, you may not know who you are except in reference to others. If you are unconscious, you will tend to think that what others want is what you want and will try to make yourself happy by doing what others are doing. This leads to deep depression. You still retain the past life habit of seeing both sides of very issue. When presented with a decision, you may analyze the various perspectives until you are literally sick of yourself.

It indicates you have a fine mind and true friends. The corresponding Dragon’s Tail in Sagittarius brings over-confidence and the need for caution. After many lifetimes spent on long journeys or in solitude with nature, you have incarnated to join the rest of the society in the city. In the past, you were quite wild and not used to striking the kind of bargains with others that urban life demands. You find it difficult to tame the wanderlust within you and may resist formalities for many, many years. Others who know you have already recognized your need to do many things at once. As a carrier of the north nodein gemini, you are also loath to take on responsibility, and some people do see you as a flake or perhaps some sort of mountain man who accidentally wandered into the city. However, the more you try to free yourself from the demands of modern life, the deeper a hole you make. You are in a mutually beneficial relationship with the other members of society, and the sooner you start to appreciate your friends and neighbors the better. Though you have wisdom, you don’t know how to share it. You have so much to say, but words often fail you. Martin Schulman describes people with the north node in gemini placement as “shouters in the library.” There is still a part of you that never quite accepts the constraints of civilization. You need to learn how to communicate appropriately to be understood. This is why you have such a desire to educate yourself. While in past lives you lived on your own, in this lifetime you will be dependent on others. Perhaps for your very life. Circumstances will force you again and again to learn new customs, practice your manners, and try to see the world through the eyes of others. Though your body might fight you, eventually your mind will win. The north nodein gemini placement means you will become a sophisticated and cultured specimen of your civilization. If you are too heavily using your South Node, you might find yourself always leery of others curtailing your freedom. Or perhaps you leave when there’s the first sign of trouble lest you get tied down or “bummed out” by something. You might be sarcastic or arrogant. Maybe you are uncomfortable around your peers or have a blind faith in academic learning. Or maybe you get along with others, but only by relating to them as their teacher or guide. Good antidotes for balancing such Sagittarius energy include keeping a dairy, taking shorter trips, and any activity that emphasizes manual dexterity and agility.
