70s Music- Love was Easy by Paul MacNeil


Some songs persist across time and space, love lost and found, youth and age. This song, written by a dear friend in the late sixties, who now lives in the Philippines, made it into my inbox this morning. Astrologically, he has a Scorpio Sun exactly conjunct my Scorpio South Node, (hinting of a past life connection) and in this life we are still continuing our karmic dance.

Scorpio South Node

Image
The South Node in Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, “Lord of the Underworld” and is the archetypal symbol of death and rebirth. Scorpio in this context has struggled to transform and be re-born like the phoenix, and somewhere in all that struggling has come an exhaustion and weariness of the spirit. Pluto is a planet ruling an intensely passionate sign, and the Scorpio storyline is often about the price it costs to come into one’s own power. Having your South Node here suggests that you can heal and regenerate yourself—and others—more skillfully than any other sign, but you can also be secretive, reflective, mysterious and sometimes revengeful or jealous. So this “South Node Scorpio often reflect the journey of coming into one’s own power the hard way. South Node in Scorpio know the dark side of life; the areas that are taboo, and the horrific tragedies that befall humans.

What are the North and South Nodes? Vedic Nodes, vs Western Nodes...

Image
As many of you know, the North and South Nodes are mathematical points rather than planets, and are calculated by the intersecting orbits between the Earth, Sun, and Moon.

The South Node describes the qualities of past incarnations and present spiritual lessons in this life, and the North Node describes the life direction, soul purpose, and compensatory behavior that is 'good medicine' for you now.      The Nodes can be seen as the trajectory of the Soul. Similar to the ancient astroglobes with an arrow piercing a circle (now often seen as garden sculptures) the arrow tip points in the direction of your North Node, like a North Star, and the South Node is the end tail of the arrow, and speaks symbolically of the past and the direction you want to move away from....old default habits. There needs to be a balance between the ends, because we cannot get rid of the pas...

Bitterness; The Silent Disease

Image
"Bitterness: The Silent Disease of the South Node" "Anger is a short madness." Horace 65 BC Anger is a short madness, but bitterness is anger that has been boiled, simmered, and then found so unpalatable that it has been thrown into the deep freeze of our unconscious psyches. Recently the “Los Angeles Times” printed an article called: “Bitterness as mental illness?” It stated that: “Bitter behavior is so common and deeply destructive that some psychiatrists are urging it be identified as a mental illness under the name post-traumatic embitterment disorder.” How many of us have a touch of this disease? How many people do we know that have it? And towhat degree? Anger is what we feel first in the face of injustice, and repeated anger becomes deep-seated resentment at whoever and whatever is upsetting us. It turns cold and bitter. And the worse part is that...
