FAQ

How long does a challenging Moon-South Node transit last?
It usually lasts about ten hours and ends within the same day. The Moon moves roughly 12 to 15 degrees daily, so pressure peaks near the exact aspect and drops quickly afterward; if the reaction continues for days, check for other active factors.
What should I do if family triggers an old emotional pattern?
Do not treat the first reaction as a complete account of the present situation. This hard contact can pull an old family role or defense into a current dispute, but its window is brief, so record the exact exchange and send important replies after the feeling subsides.
