North Node in Virgo or the Sixth House

 

Like an intricate tapestry, the North Node in Virgo weaves experience into a finely crafted reality that is beautiful to the eye, nourishing to the body, and stimulating to the mind. After years drifting through nebulous otherworlds, in the realm of the earth is where they now want to be. North Node Virgos are ready to leave the currents of the Pisces South Node, with its chaos and vague unnamed fears, and exchange the jumble for crystalline form and clarity with a calmer existence grounded in practicality. Where once actions seemed futile, the North Virgos know now their efforts can be of great consequence. It is finally working out.

The mechanics of living. One might call the Virgo North Node the cosmic repairman, attuned to malfunctions and possessed of a great ability to fix what is broken. All moving parts are oiled and turning perfectly, much like the movements of the planets and the stars. While the "whatever" Pisces SN would let divinity or others take care of things, North Node Virgos have no resistance to hands on help with the proper functioning of body, mind, machine, and the mundane dimension as a whole. They are at the service of humanity and have the skills to make the world a better place.

Intelligence and awareness. With their uncanny perceptions and analytical minds, Virgo North Nodes are among the most intelligent of all people. They seem to have unique sensors that receive clues most others miss. They are quick to interpret sensory input and often translate with lightning speed and accuracy. More than intellectual understanding, these node-holders react almost like alert animals or visiting creatures from outer space getting the lay of the land. They can explain the world with facts, figures, graphs, lists, and analytical reports, if need be, since they see the fragmentation and finest details of the whole.
They used to absorb the emotions and tragedy surrounding them, but now they can mentally sort it all out and do something to help. They notice everything.

The helping hand. There are none like Virgo NNs who aid their fellow humans through life's constant breakdowns, mishaps, and tribulations. They do it without hesitation, regret, or even praise. The Virgo North Node is not only always available for service, but these beings find honest purpose in being useful to others and often do it gladly for little in return.

Food, health, and healing herbs. Virgo Norths are the earth's alchemists who turn ordinary growing life into healing potions. They know that ills come with cures and the planet provides the antidotes when people search and use them in the right ways. Like the digestive system, which is a Virgo domain, the NNs breaks matter into its essential components each going to the correct place for health and well-being. Proper intake is a road to mental acuity and fitness. Healthy nursing of ills reinforces the act.
The memory of Pisces SN and the suffering of worldly woes turns into the recognition of earth as an ally or instructor. They understand its gifts well and know how to use them. A reverence for earth's productivity is their invaluable tool.

Criticism and discrimination. The Pisces SN used to take it all in without judgement or concern. The NN Virgo picks and chooses what goes in, what stays out, what is assimilated, what is eliminated, what is useful, and what combines to make a perfect life. The marvels of solid matter are new to seafaring SN Pisces and even more alluring than the illusions they know so well. Why escape what is abundant and life-enhancing? 

While at risk for being viewed as nitpicking, the Virgo North sees great benefit in the act of somatic health replacing emotional malaise, however much criticism is applied.

The artisan and craftsman. The Virgo North Node holds manual dexterity and creation of objects in high admiration and often learns the techniques for such accomplishments. They might not have the results plastered on cathedral walls in homage to great divine power, as the SN Pisces devotee might prefer, but the results are often beautiful, finely skilled, and most of all, useful. After the dissolution of the Pisces South Node, they find solace in organizing and piecing things together in logical mosaic order. The products are often excellent, but it the process itself that seems to please them the most.

Ritual and labor. Like Zen Buddhist masters, the Virgo North Node engages knowingly in the repetitive rituals of work and other substantial endeavors. No job is too small or insignificant. They all contribute to the desired order coming from previously known disarray. Maintenance once seemed unnecessary or useless, but now these node-holders welcome the rituals of cleaning, maintaining, and organizing. The formless spirituality of the Pisces South Node becomes the spiritual soap of immaculate order and its resulting space, health, freedom, and peace.

 

Distillation, purity and clarity. At the Pisces South, the elements were undifferentiated as contemplation of the whole was the aim. The Virgo North prefers to purify substance and remove the unwanted factors detrimental to well being. They intend to concentrate life's essentials and place them in the most beneficial untainted sequence possible. The shine of clean spaces and surfaces are like windows into clear thought and crisp analysis. Fresh, natural, and wholesome, the virtues of a good life are theirs to have.

From the knowledge of human transgression and imperfection, the Virgo North Nodes are ready to put their lives back together with care and good intentions, attention to improvement, embrace of humility, successful effort toward a flourishing society, and to contribute to the making of a better world.
