South Node in Cancer ♋︎ in the natal chart
If your South Node is in Cancer in the natal chart then this indicates past lives or past situations in your current life in which you felt like a victim to your own destiny. This placement indicates a tendency to narrate your life and see your experiences as a story playing out in front of you. You have a deep connection to the cycles of the universe and often see yourself as flowing within it. This has lead you to be fatalistic in many ways or caused you to develop a profound sense of surrender in which you do not feel you can direct your own fate.
At times you may fall into depression or victim tendencies preferring to get sucked into the narratives of the past, family, and relationships. You are learning to understand your involvement in these situations and the role you can play in directing your own life path. As a natural storyteller you are beginning to understand your ability to weave your own narrative.
Individuals with the South Node in Cancer are developing a fierce sense of ownership and control over their own lives. Letting go of your dependency on others or an over attachment to your “story” is paramount in your healing journey.
