lunar nodes
Moon's path crossings
The lunar nodes are the two points where the moon's orbital path crosses the plane of Earth's orbit around the sun.
Astronomers use them to predict eclipses, which occur only when the sun and moon are near these intersection points.
In astrology, the north and south nodes carry significance for interpreting destiny and past lives.
