North Node's aspects to the Sun

North Node conjunct Sun
This conjunction indicates birth near the time of a solar or lunar eclipse. It also shows that this is a major event in the natural world, which causes major events and sets of circumstances in the natives' world and provides them greater scope for their self-expression as well as opportunities for expansion of their poqwe and leadership potential. The conjunction suggests an inherited karmic tendency toward good luck as a result of previous use of the life energies for the benefit of the individual's larger environment. When carried too far, however, this influence can dissipate the individual's energies, causing exhaustion and a depletion of the life force.


North Node sextile Sun
This sextile to the Sun includes a trine of the South Node to the Sun. Any interpretation of the aspect must take this factor into consideration.

The natives have opportunities to work in harmony with the prevailing tide of social events. They have the ability to make constructive use of the existing moral and social traditions of their culture. Often this is manifested as social leadership, because they know how to win the support of other people by appealing to their social and ethical standards.

They may make valuable artistic commentaries, through drama, music, and art, on cultural conditions.


North Node square Sun
This square causes the natives' attempts at individual expression to be out of phase with the current of larger events in their society. Sometimes they hold back when they should go forward, or vice versa.

Circumstances in their lives and in their society tend to block their self-expression and creative endeavors. They find themselves poorly adjusted in their social and romantic lives.


North Node trine Sun
This square causes the natives' attempts at individual expression to be out of phase with the current of larger events in their society. Sometimes they hold back when they should go forward, or vice versa.

Circumstances in their lives and in their society tend to block their self-expression and creative endeavors. They find themselves poorly adjusted in their social and romantic lives.



North Node opposition Sun
This conjunction (to the South Node) refers to a condition in which major circumstances in the native's environment deny him opportunities and resources for self-expression, limiting especially his leadership and power potential. Obstacles are thrown in his path, making it difficult to achieve what he desires, even to the extent that he is denied the fruits of his efforts.

Natives are not swept along in the mainstream of events, as in the case of the Sun conjunct North Node. This conjunction indicates a karmic situation in which individuals in previous incarnations selfishly promoted their own ambitions at the expense of the self-expression of others. This time around, they experience what it is like to be thwarted by the actions of others. However, this aspect can bring a thorough mastery of that which the native is able to command.

North Node's aspects to the Moon
North Node conjunct Moon
This conjunction brings fortune through the natives' ability to sense and to flow in harmony with the prevailing current of events. In other words, they are instinctively capable of taking advantage of current trends. Carried too far, this attribute leads them to jump on whatever bandwagon happens to be passing, without due concern for the consequences. Natives' enthusiasm brings them popularity. Good fortune in dealing with women or the public is also indicated. Thus, the aspect is beneficial to those in public relations, selling, entertainment, and politics. If the chart as a whole bears out this tendency, natives will be generous and interested in religion. This is a favorable karmic influence, created by generosity and helpfulness to others in the native's past.


North Node sextile Moon
This combination is favorable for the effective timing of day-to-day events and the handling of small matters in a way that is harmonious with contemporary society. The natives' socially acceptable habit patterns make them popular. Family background may bring them good fortune.


North Node square Moon
This square tends to make the natives emotionally out of harmony with the trends of their society. Very often the flow of events creates petty problems and sometimes domestic problems. There is difficulty in gaining social recognition or fulfilling ambitions if women play a part in this. The natives are likely to incur their disfavor or dislike in some way.


North Node trine Moon
This configuration indicates a harmonious blending of the natives' own emotions and instinctive reactions with the prevailing social trends and attitudes. The natives instinctively know how to navigate the currents of changing popular beliefs to their own advantage.


North Node opposition Moon
This is a difficult aspect because circumstances in the natives' lives make it hard for them to synchronize their activities with current trends. In other words, the natives are plagued with bad timing due to their own circumstantially imposed inability to be in the right place at the right time, doing the right thing in the right way. Thus they are constantly forced to draw upon their own personal resources. They cannot depend upon the co-operation of others. They are emotionally alone against the world. This isolation leads to depression and a negative emotional outlook which further alienates others. ('Laugh and the world laughs with you; cry, and you cry alone.') Natives are capable of disciplined, well-planned, concentrated effort. Their ingenuity in making the most of meager resources brings solid accomplishments and a strength of character which meets adversity with courage and determination. According to some writers on the subject, this is a karmic condition, created by previous misuse of wealth, position, and popularity.


North Node's aspects to the Mercury
North Node conjunct Mercury
Natives with this aspect are able to express ideas acceptable to the culture in which they live at a time when they will receive recognition. (There is nothing so urgent as 'an idea whose time has come'.) Thus they are popular and are considered intellectual leaders. If other factors in the horoscope give a capacity for original thought, the native can be an effective force in bringing important new concepts into acceptance. On the negative side, there is a tendency for the natives to be swept along in the current of popularly held views and to do little original thinking. They are then merely mental children of their time, subject to all its limitations and errors.


North Node sextile Mercury
This configuration gives the ability to plan and communicate in a way that is harmonious with prevailing cultural standards. The natives have a good understanding of the traditions and trends of their society. This gives them an advantage in gaining acceptance of their ideas.


North Node square Mercury
This square creates a situation in which the prevailing attitudes of the society conflict with the natives' mental expression and communication. They cannot project their ideas as they would like, and therefore tend to be misunderstood. Often they meet with social disapproval because they speak out at the wrong time or place. They may be in disagreement with surrounding social patterns.


North Node trine Mercury
This configuration gives skill in understanding prevailing social attitudes, trends, and institutions. Consequently, the natives communicate with the public to their advantage. It favors those who work in the mass media - promoters and others who must gain public acceptance for their ideas. Politicians, who deal with media to reach the public, are especially favored, as are sociologists.


North Node opposition Mercury
This aspect produces a condition in which the natives' ideas are either behind or ahead of their times. On the positive side, the conjunction can bestow mental originality and independence. Then natives escape the pitfalls of popular opinion. In the long run, if the rest of the map indicates good mental capacity, the native will prove to be correct. On the negative side, the native is forced to proceed alone with his ideas since he cannot gian support for them. He does not speak out at the right time in the right place; and when he does speak, he is not listened to. Consequently, he is sometimes frustrated and feels mentally alone.


North Node's aspects to the Venus
North Node conjunct Venus
This aspect indicates good timing in social contacts and in forming relationships favorable for money, romance, partnerships, marriage, and friendship. Through an innate ability to be in the right place at the right time, the natives attract those things necessary for happiness. According to some authorities, this ability represents the good karma coming from friendliness and generosity in the past. On the negative side, this aspect can lead to a frivolous invovlement with every passing pleasure, so that time is wasted on useless social activity.


North Node sextile Venus
This configuration bestows social grace and good manners according to the native's culture. Generally the natives know how to use their charm to gain the approval of their society and of the established institutions with which they must deal. Often they possess good timing in relation to financial affairs, public relations, partnerships, social activities, and marriage. This aspect especially favors business because of the natives' ability to keep in step with current vogues and economic trends.


North Node square Venus
The emotional qualities of the natives and of their social expressions (these are the persons who flirt in church and giggle at funerals) are not likely to conform to prevailing social mores and attitudes. Marriages and financial dealings especially can meet with social disapproval.


North Node trine Venus
This configuration indicates much refinement of the social graces. The natives' actions in all social situations coincide with the appropriate line of conduct. Thus their popularity is enhanced, but unless other factors in the horoscope give evidence of a deeper sense of values, their concern for the sensibility of others may be superficial.


North Node opposition Venus
Natives with this aspect tend to loneliness and personal isolation where their feelings are concerned. They are inept in timing social and romantic advances, approaching others when they are preoccupied or indisposed. Consequently they suffer frequent brush-offs and develop inferiority complexes. On the positive side, love takes on a serious and profound meaning. There is a desire to help and relate to those who really need love and friendship. In the long run, this brings spiritual rewards.


North Node's aspects to the Mars
North Node conjunct Mars
Natives with Mars conjunct North Node tend to act in harmony with the people in their environment, thus gaining both co-operation and approval. However, as the saying goes, 'Nobody is right if everybody is wrong'. The desires of the natives and their resultant actions can be swept along in a chain of mass passions that ends in self-destruction. For example, individuals caught up in a flood of misdirected patriotism can find themselves the agents or victims of war.


North Node sextile Mars
This configuration gives the natives the ability to act at the right time to further their well-being and improve their relationship to society. Their activities gain the co-operation and approval of their social order; and they are able to find support for their endeavors to bring about constructive change.


North Node square Mars
This aspect indicates a condition in which the actions and impulses of the natives are likely to be at odds with current social standards. These people tend to express their aggressive tendencies at inappropriate times and places. They may appear to have bad luck, because they lack the ability to act in harmony with the events around them. Others then become irritated, and the natives themselves frustrated.


North Node trine Mars
This configuration gives the ability to act and to time actions so that they are in harmony with socially accepted modes of behavior. Thus the natives gain popularity as social leaders. The configuration favors politicians and others who lead public lives. The energy needed to dela with social trends and institutions is available.


North Node opposition Mars
On the positive side, this aspect can cause the natives to question the militaristic values or group actions of their society. They may step aside if they feel that the trend is to no good. They sometimes become loners, acting upon their own decisions and disregarding what others think or do. On the negative side, their actions and desires tend to be out of harmony with the standards of society. They may act at the wrong time and in the wrong place, antagonizing others and causing opposition. They are likely then to lash out in anger and frustration.


North Node's aspects to the Jupiter
North Node conjunct Jupiter
This aspect gives the natives unusual ability to harmonize with prevailing social, cultural, and religious attitudes. Popularity and good fortune are likely to follow. At the same time, there is a tendency unquestioningly to accept traditional values without subjecting them to critical analysis. There is also the danger of fast and too easy expansion that creates the possibility of a future fall or collapse. That which is attained too easily is not always valued or properly used. These natives tend to take too much for granted.


North Node sextile Jupiter
This configuration is favorable for all expansive endeavors requiring the co-operation and approval of prevailing social attitudes and institutions. The natives are often closely involved in religious activities which tend to be along conventional lines. There is generally a good sense of timing in business and promotional matters.


North Node square Jupiter
The square produces a situation in which the natives' religious, educational, and social attitudes are not in harmony with the trends and policies of the culture in which they find themselves. They are likely to have difficulty adjusting to social institutions.


North Node trine Jupiter
This configuration indicates that the natives' moral and religious values are compatible with those of the society in which they live. For this reason, they are likely to gain prominence in the religious and social institutions of their culture. Their instinctive ability to flow with prevailing trends brings popularity and financial gain.


North Node opposition Jupiter
This conjunction (to the South Node) is similar to the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction. The endeavors of the natives may be blocked because of bad timing. Their social and ethical aims may clash with prevailing societal customs, creating conflicts of interest. At the same time, the natives can give a detailed and honest appraisal of commonly accepted values. They can encounter obstacles in obtaining higher education and find themselves in disagreement with prevailing religious institutions. There can be difficulties and delays in foreign lands, and problems connected with all these matters.


North Node's aspects to the Saturn
North Node conjunct Saturn
This aspect makes the natives conservative and careful to conform to prevailing social, religious, and ethical values. They generally adhere to protocol as well as to the proper time and place for approaching those in well-established positions of authority. Thus they may further their personal ambitions, but at the expense of enslavement to the lowest common denominator of culturally accepted standards.


North Node sextile Saturn
This configuration is favorable for those whose professional goals require the approval of traditional social customs and institutions. The natives are able to win support for their endeavors, especially from established conservative members of society and the institutions they represent.




North Node square Saturn
This square indicates a thwarting of the natives' ambition and progress by prevailing social forces. Their fearfulness and conservatism may pervent their being in the right place at the right time to take advantage of opportunities which the society affords them. They may be isolated by society or become recluses.


North Node trine Saturn
This configuration indicates that the natives are careful and conservative, hewing strictly to the codes of social, moral, and business behavior of the culture with which they must deal. They are, therefore, considered somewhat old-fashioned. However, they achieve success bu gaining the co-operation of social institutions and the older, more traditional members of society who respect their conservatism. They tend to ensconce themselves in secure positions in established institutions. This aspect especially favors those politicians or others in public life who represent the more conservative elements of society.


North Node opposition Saturn
This aspect tends to be extremely limiting; the natives' rigid personal habits and ambitions put them out of harmony with prevailing cultural attitudes. In order to overcome the isolation thus created, they must learn to co-operate with the ideas and the methods of their society. On the positive side, the natives may achieve things which put them in a class by themselves by their individualistic and painstaking approach to work, in which all external influences are disregarded. This is especially the case with experts in obscure fields of endeavor.


North Node's aspects to the Uranus
North Node conjunct Uranus
Natives with this conjunction are likely to profit from sudden changes in surrounding social conditions. For example, if the conjunction is found in the tenth house, they can benefit by jobs created by the introduction of new electronic technology. Natives are attuned to the changing times but are subject to being swept away by unexpected social changes without giving consideration to the ultimate consequences of impulsive group enthusiasm.


North Node sextile Uranus
This configuration indicates an intuitive ability to anticipate and take advantage of sudden changes in public opinions. In other words, the person has a finger on the public pulse. The natives make good social reformers - they have both their desire and the ability to change social attitudes and the institutions that reflect them. They can capture the public imagination by surprise effects and unusual methods.


North Node square Uranus
This square indicates a situation in which the natives' desire for freedom and their nonconformist tendencies conflict with social standards. They are likely to run roughshod over the mores of their culture and will incur the disapproval of the more traditional elements of society. Hence they are prone to misfortune.


North Node trine Uranus
This configuration indicates an ability to take advantage of chances in prevailing social attitudes and institutions. The natives may even be leaders of social reform. In politics they are likely to be liberal. Often there is talent for capitalizing on sudden changes in the social structure because of the natives' ability to adapt quickly to new conditions and to seize new opportunities.


North Node opposition Uranus
The lives of natives with this conjunction (to the South Node) are upset by changing social and technological conditions. For example, if the conjunction were found in the fourth house in Gemini, a native might be forced to move his home to make way for highway construction, probably at a financial loss. This conjunction often occurs in the horoscope of individuals whose lives are disrupted by war and revolution. Afflictions made to the conjunction by other plaanets can cause additional complications. On the positive side, these are determined and individualistic in preserving traditional worthwhile values against the onslaught of fads and new social movements.


North Node's aspects to the Neptune
North Node conjunct Neptune
This conjunction tunes natives to what is socially popular and acceptable. They have an intuitive ability to be in the right place at the right time. On the negative side, there is a tendency to be mindlessly swept along with current social conditions, wherever they may lead. Going along with the crowd can be the easy way out and end ultimately in disaster. For example, a native involved in the cocktail party circuit may overindulge in drink simply because it is the socially acceptable thing to do, and end up as an alcoholic. It is important for these natives to exercise discrimination. Misused, this aspect can be highly seductive. It can sweep the natives along without their being aware of it.


North Node sextile Neptune
This configuration indicates the intuitive ability to harmonize with and subtly influence existing social customs and institutions. The natives instinctively ride the currents of public mood, opinion, and action. Their understanding of cultural trends allows them to circumvent this influence on their lives if they so desire - always by subtle evasion rather than open confrontation.


North Node square Neptune
This square indicates a situation in which the mystical tendencies of the natives conflict with the more prosaic, down-to-earth customs and social institutions of their culture. Society is likely to regard them as impractical dreamers or even as subversive influences who undermine traditional religious and social concepts. They are likely to feel alone in a crowd and misunderstood by their peers. Sometimes their preoccupation with visionary pursuits keeps them out of touch with the flow of events around them, so that they react ineptly and confusedly.


North Node trine Neptune
This configuration indicates an intuitive ability to fathom the trends of prevailing social attitudes and modes of conduct. The natives thus instinctively know how to benefit from the social forces around them. They are in tune with the times, and gain success and popularity through this rapport.


North Node opposition Neptune
This conjunction does not make for popularity. The natives' unconscious habits and intuitive promptings are out of harmony with current social trends, and their timing is likely to be off when they have an opportunity for good fortune. However, they are often individualistic and discriminating in relation to popular social trends, and can sidestep the folly of the masses through superior intuitive wisdom. There is a danger that things on which the natives have worked hard will be stolen or taken from them through intrigue or unforunate circumstnces which are beyond the natives' control. Natives may have the responsibility of acting as channels for working out spiritual purposes under different conditions.


North Node's aspects to the Pluto
North Node conjunct Pluto
The conjunction gives the native a special knack for seeing through prevailing social trends and provides the necessary drive and willpower to take advantage of them. As is the case with Neptune conjunct North Node, there is an intuitive ability to understand the forces shaping present trends. However, in the case of Pluto, the native is much more deliberate and calculated in taking advantage of this ability. Whether it is used for selfish or for altruistic purposes depends upon the aspects of Pluto and the overall tenor of the horoscope. On the negative side, this conjunction gives a dangerous tendency to try to manipulate social forces too large to be handled with safety. The natives may become entrapped or crushed by the weight of circumstances in which they have involved themselves. The affairs of their lives can get out of hand, with subsequent danger of collapse. (This is the tiger-by-the-tail aspect.) In what department of life this condition arises depends on the house position and house rulership of Pluto.


North Node sextile Pluto
This configuration gives the ability to exert a transforming influence on social trends, customs, events, and institutions. There is a penetrating awareness of the motivating forces behind social institutions and cultural attitudes. For someone involved in politics, this is a favorable aspect to have. The natives know how to manipulate the hopes and fears of their societies. Whether this skill is used selfishly or altruistically depends on the rest of the horoscope.


North Node square Pluto
This square indicates a tendency to want to reform social and cultural philosophies and institutions. Thus, the natives will be at odds with the established order and will incur its disfavor. Depending on other factors in the horoscope, this can be either mild disapproval or a matter of life and death, in which the natives are regarded as dangerous revolutiojnaries by their society.


North Node trine Pluto
This configuration gives the natives the ability to be leaders in transforming social and political institutions and in helping them attain a higher level of expression. The natives know how to indluence mass thought. The configuration favors people in public life, politicians, and social reformers.


North Node opposition Pluto
This conjunction (to the South Node) creates a condition in which the native's will is out of harmony with prevailing social trends. The tendency to initiate things at the wrong time and place generates resentment and misunderstanding. The natives are forced to regenerate their lives without the help of others. Very often, large social events which are beyond their personal control endanger or destroy their work and personal security. On the positive side, this conjunction fosters self-reliance, resourcefulness, and the ability to survive under hardships. According to some astrological philosophers, this conjunction indicates a past life condition in which the natives initiated large-scale changes without regard to their effect on others' lives. Now they must learn how it feels to be the victim of circumstances beyond their control.


North Node's aspects to the Ascendant
North Node conjunct Ascendant
This conjunction gives natives the ability to shape their personalities according to prevailing social trends. Although this favors popularity, it can also lead to superficiality. The natives are other-directed and base their actions not on any fundamental convictions but on the lowest common denominator of popularly accepted behavior. In appearance, natives are likely to be tall and lanky. Their nature is cheerful, optimistic, jovial. South Node conjunct the Descendant is unfavorable for the formation of partnerships and close personal relations - other people tend to be somewhat inhibited where the natives are concerned because of the latter's effusive outgoing qualities resulting from the North Node conjunct Ascendant. People suspect a lack of sincerity and feel the natives are merely trying to play a popularity game. Natives can also be serious and calculating when dealing with partners and the public. Sometimes the partner is a burden or the public makes demands on the native's resources.


North Node sextile Ascendant
This configuration indicates a special ability to make use of current social trends and opinions. Such ability is utilized in public relations, partnerships, salesmanship, and legal matters. The natives are, as the saying goes, 'hip', or tuned in to what is going on at the present and what will meet with popular approval.


North Node square Ascendant
The tension produced by the nodal conflict can lead to either a discordant sort of self-projection or a tendency to attract discordant people. A tendency towards clannishness or social climbing can contribute to stagnation.


North Node trine Ascendant
This configuration indicates a strong awareness of prevailing social trends and institutions. The natives know how to express themselves and act effectively in relation to these, thus gaining social support and approval for themselves and their partners. They carry out their endeavors with a minimum of friction and opposition, unless there are other factors in the horoscope which indicate the contrary.


North Node opposition Ascendant
This conjunction (to the descendant) indicates good fortune through partnerships and public relations, and, if well-aspected, through marriage. Although natives are personally detached from the prevailing social trends by virtue of having the South Node conjunct their Ascendant, they are able to view objectively the workings of these popular attitudes in their partners and the public at large, and use this understanding to advantage in relating to them. On the negative side, there can be deliberate manipulation by others, who play upon their social conditionings. The natives do not go out of their way to conform to accepted modes of social behavior. This attribute makes for strong individualism but not for popularity. At times these people are very serious in manner and can make anyone who expects overt signs of sociability feel uneasy. They are also subject to periodic moods of personal inhibition. The natives tend to be short in stature and somewhat dwarfish in appearance. They occasionally have speech peculiarities as well.


North Node's aspects to the Midheaven
North Node conjunct Midheaven
This conjunction gives natives the ability to further their professional ambitions and public standing through their aptitude for harmonizing with present social trends. They are fortunate in meeting and gaining the assistance of people in prominent positions who will help to further their careers; they have the ability to be in the right place at the right time. If the rest of the chart is weak, the natives' lives can become unbalanced - they may attain more power and responsibility than they have the knowledge or integrity to handle. This can be dangerous for the natives as well as for those whom their power affects. The conjunction brings good fortune and, even in a heavily afflicted chart, will protect the natives from ruin and disaster. South Node conjunct Nadir brings heavy responsibilities into the natives' lives where their homes and families are concerned. Sometimes parents are a burden. The domestic sphere will limit the natives' expressions.


North Node sextile Midheaven
This configuration indicates special capacity for utilizign social trends in the domestic and professional sphere. The talent for making domestic and career matters mutually supportive is characteristic. There can also be business ability in using popular trends to make money that is then used to support of improve the domestic environment.


North Node square Midheaven
There's a tendency not to fit into the environment, to feel odd, be odd, or be misunderstood. As a result, difficulties arise frequently in the course of activities involving others, particularly those which involve sharing or teamwork. There's still ability to grow and progress, and often the tension triggered by the nodal conflict actually triggers growth, but there may be many hassles with parents or authority figures over the type of growth desired or the means of attaining it.


North Node trine Midheaven
This configuration gives the natives an awareness of social trends, customs, and institutions in relation to their professions, public reputations, and domestic lives. They are thus able to advance themselves in all professional and domestic dealings which require harmony with the prevailing cultural attitudes. The configuration favors politicians and others who must depend on good public relations and social approval for success.


North Node opposition Midheaven
This conjunction (to the Nadir) tends to bring success and increase through the natives' domestic lives. They are never without a roof over their heads, though it may be only a temporary roof. They will benefit from parents and other members of the family unless other factors in the horoscope dictate otherwise. The timing of events in the natives' lives with current social events will bring about good fortune, especially in the later years. This conjunction often brings misfortune into natives' lives by thwarting their careers - the timing of events denies them the recognition they sometimes deserve. This is especially likely to be the case when Saturn transits in conjunction or in adverse aspect to this configuration. In addition, the natives' long-held habits tend to put them out of harmony with the current trends of thinking that lead to public recognition; and often poor timing prevents their meeting people of influence who could further their careers. On the positive side, the conjunction gives the capacity for hard work which leads to success in the long run. But often others reap the benefit of the natives' hard work.


Your Major Challenges 你的主要挑戰
Chiron conjunct North Node 凱龍合月北交
You have a remarkable talent for helping others and for intuiting exactly what they need. You have an almost fanatic need to save the world, and at times may even think that you are the only one with the answers. Alternatively, you may question your ability really to be of service. In order to make your opinions known to a wider audience, you may gravitate toward journalism, teaching or politics.
你有幫助別人及直覺知道別人需要什麼的非凡天賦。你有救世的狂熱，而且有時會想你自己可能就是唯一擁有答案的人。另一方面，你或許會質疑你是不是有服務別人的能力。為了令你的意見能讓更多的聽眾知道，你或許會被吸引到新聞工作，教育工作，或是政治方面。

(well...我已經不可能當新聞/教育/政客了.....讀的完全不是這回事.....)

The late L. Edward Johndro (30 January 1882, 12.30 am, Franklin Center, Canada – Vertex conjunct South Node in Gemini) was first to present the Vertex for consideration by the astrological world. He reasoned that if the Ascendant was determined by the intersection of the Great Circles of the Ecliptic and Horizon and the MC was determined by the intersection of the Great Circles of the Meridian and Ecliptic, there should also be a very sensitive point of energy at the intersection of the Great Circles of the Prime Vertical and the Ecliptic. He called the western axis of this point the Vertex and the eastern the antiVertex. He felt that the Vertex was the electrical axis, the Ascendant the magnetic axis, and the MC the gravity axis in a natal chart.



conclusions are:

· The Vertex axis is not an especially strong point in a natal chart unless it has a planet or Node conjunct it or in close to exact aspect with it.

If it has a planet or Node conjunct, it often becomes an over-riding force that makes the Vertex and that planet stronger than anything else in the chart, including a planet conjunct the Ascendant or MC.

A planet conjunct or in a close to exact aspect to the Vertex tends to give a specific and often intense destiny – something the person is required to do or experience for greater soul development, or must do in order to find meaning in life – or both!

· Therefore Vertex stimulation can have an almost compulsive effect that overrides all other considerations.

The Vertex axis can have such a strong effect because it is the third and most powerful axis in the life development process.

Following the Vertex as guide to other realities opens the door to subtle aspect measurements (harmonics). Septile (7th harmonic) patterns give the ability to understand other realities, the Vertex gives the ability to access other realities and so the combination of a septile pattern and a planet conjunct the Vertex is common in the natal charts of inspirational people, psychics and magicians. Uri Geller (20 December 1946, 2.00 am, Tel Aviv, Palestine) has Vertex conjunct North Node-Uranus in Gemini in a septile pattern with Moon-Venus-Jupiter-Saturn – surely a clear indication of his exceptional nature and gifts and the extraordinary experiences in his life.
