Okay, here’s my blog post about “North Node Square Sun”, written from a personal, practical experience perspective:
So, I’ve been diving deep into astrology lately, trying to figure out, you know, life. And I stumbled upon this aspect: North Node square Sun. It sounded intense, and honestly, it kind of was.
First, I had to figure out what it even meant. My North Node is in Leo, and my Sun is in Scorpio. The “square” part means they’re at a 90-degree angle, which signifies tension, challenges, a need to work at it. No free lunches here.
Figuring Out My Chart
I pulled up my birth chart online. It must show the North Node’s location (it looks like a little horseshoe symbol). Then I located my Sun. I can see the degree of each and calculate, yeah, that are 90 degrees apart. A perfect square.
The Practical Part: What Did It Feel Like?
The core of this aspect, from what I gathered, is about stepping into your authentic self (North Node) versus staying comfortable in your ingrained patterns (Sun). My Scorpio Sun loves to be intense, private, and a little bit controlling. My Leo North Node, though? It wants to shine, be creative, be seen, and be a leader. Big difference.
- Internal Tug-of-War: I felt this constant pull. Part of me wanted to stay hidden, analyze everything, and keep my emotions close. The other part was screaming to be let out, to express myself, to take risks.
- Forcing Myself Out There: I started saying “yes” to things that scared me. I joined a local improv class (terrifying for a Scorpio!). I started sharing my writing online, even though I was sure everyone would hate it.
- Facing Resistance: It wasn’t smooth. I had moments of wanting to crawl back into my shell. I faced criticism, self-doubt, and the urge to just give up and stick with what I knew.
The Breakthrough (Slowly but Surely)
The key, I realized, was to keep pushing, even when it was uncomfortable. It’s like exercising a muscle you’ve never used before. It’s going to hurt, you’re going to be sore, but you’ll get stronger.
I haven’t “mastered” this aspect. It’s a lifelong journey. But I am seeing progress. I feel more confident expressing myself. I am taking more creative risks. I am learning to embrace the spotlight a little bit more, even if it still feels awkward sometimes.
So, if you’ve got this North Node square Sun aspect in your chart, don’t panic. It’s a challenge, yes, but it’s also an opportunity for incredible growth. It’s about becoming the most authentic, powerful version of yourself. And that’s a journey worth taking.
