The moon’s North node will enter Aries on July 18 and stay until January 11, 2025
North node signifies soul purposes and evolution on a global and personal level. It retrogrades into a preceding sign every 18 months. During the past 18 months, North node transit through Taurus, which relates to how we create our physical reality and financial security.
It now moves on to Aries, highlighting the importance of individuality, entrepreneurship, courage and initiatives. The transit will shift our attention from stability, security and material possession, and take a leap of faith to pursue our goals regardless of expectation from others.
To test the theory of “Shifts in Human Consciousness”, I look up the previous cycle and see what are the key events during the period on Wikipedia.
According to the “Timeline of the 21st century”, a lot of the bomb killings and wars showed up on the list, indicating humans haven’t yet to learn peace regardless of the cosmic cycle. I also do not find a high correlation between the nodal cycle and natural disasters.
I have selected and highlighted events relating to new ventures and beginnings here:
