The South Node in Pisces in the natal chart speaks to past life or current life circumstances in which you found yourself playing the martyr.

Your past experiences living as an empath have made you a highly sensitive person and very cognizant of the needs of others. 

In this life or on your current life path you are learning to ground your feelings and beliefs. You may have a tendency to flake out on plans or day dream excessively. With your South Node in Pisces you can often feel like you are in your own mini universe, experiencing the world from a broad and expansive perspective. 

You are learning to integrate these skills into the everyday. Your soul is requesting to take what you have learned and apply them to the details. With a profound ability to recognize how everything is connected you are working on understanding how everything can be separate as well. You are moving towards creating your own individual life experience, crafted in the physical world.
