North Node (Rahu)

The karmic point of growth — where your soul is evolving toward in this lifetime.

The North Node (called Rahu in Vedic astrology) is one of two lunar nodes — the point where the Moon crosses the ecliptic moving northward. Astrologically it represents your karmic direction of growth: the qualities to develop, the path of greatest evolution, and often the area of greatest challenge because it is unfamiliar. Its opposite, the South Node (Ketu), represents past-life comfort and natural gifts.
