North Node in Cancer:
What Your Soul Came to Learn
Your Path to Emotional Connection, Care, and Inner Security
What Does It Mean to Have Your North Node in Cancer?
If your North Node is in Cancer, your soul came here to learn how to nurture, connect emotionally, and create a true sense of home within yourself.
This lifetime asks you to move away from the constant striving, control, and achievement-focus of your Capricorn South Node… and lean into the softer, more intuitive side of life. Your growth comes through building trust, tending to relationships, and valuing emotional fulfillment as much as external success.
You’re here to remember that vulnerability is a strength, and that inner security is the foundation for everything else you build.
