North Node in Gemini ♊︎
The North Node in Gemini in the natal chart is symbolic of a soul urge towards learning to see all sides of a situation and communicate a sense of curiosity in the unknown. Individuals born with this placement are coming to terms with the dual nature of the universe and in doing so learning to de-polarize themselves.
On an esoteric level you understand that many aspects of life contain duality in the form of opposites. You are experiencing life situations that allow you to better understand the value in finding a middle ground. With this you are developing an understanding that opposites are either end of the spectrum and many varieties exist in between. There may be cycles throughout your life where you radically shift your focus from one polar opposite to another trying to find the balance within yourself.
The point opposite the North Node, your South Node, is in Sagittarius. This may give you a sense that you think you see the bigger picture when in fact you are missing a piece of the puzzle. Your soul is learning to be curious, to ask questions, and be open to new and varying points of view.
