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.

As a natural storyteller you are beginning to understand your ability to weave your own narrative.
