South Node (SN) in Scorpio, South Node (SN) in the 7th House

South Node in Scorpio ♏︎ in the natal chart

If your South Node is in Scorpio in the natal chart then this indicates past life incarnations or past situations in this current life in which you felt powerless or bonded to a situation you could not free yourself from. Due to this fact you may find yourself repeating cycles in relationships between lovers, bosses, and friends in which these power dynamics play out. You may have been in a position of power or submission. 

The South Node in Scorpio represents a well developed sense of intuition in which you deeply understand the motivations and drives of others. Any betrayal you experience from others can be deeply wounding causing you to put up walls or be particular suspicious of people. You are learning to surrender completely to your own needs and desires. 

This placement indicates that you are working towards learning how to build up trust between partners, co-workers, and family. You are learning to create situations in which you feel secure and free to be your authentic self. Entering into commitments and taking on responsibilities can be very healing for you as this reinforces your need to create physical attachments. When you take on new obligations or duties you are allowing yourself to settle in and letting go of creating situations in which you could leave at any time.
