The Moon’s Nodes in Action

(Note: to purchase this book, scroll to foot of the page)

‘The Moon’s Nodes in Action’ is the research study I wrote to complete my three-year Diploma from the Centre for Psychological Astrology in London.

At that time, the Centre’s Director Dr Liz Greene described ‘The Moon’s Nodes in Action’ as “…a superb thesis…” I was of course, delighted to have my work described in those terms. However, as life moved on, other projects beckoned.  But I never lost my interest in the Moon’s Nodes…

Many people – myself included – find the Moon’s Nodes fascinating. What you will shortly read is a comprehensive, original piece of research, born from my curiosity and interest over many years. As  fellow writer and astrologer Paul F Newman says in his generous preface to the study:

… this book is about…. Nodal Returns, Nodal synastries, Nodal ‘trawls’ and Nodal moments. A knowledge-gathering journey through the lives and charts of the famous and not so famous – yet with the excitement of a personal quest and the inestimable benefit of coming through the pen of a gifted writer. Herein are facts – not theories – that you can use to enrich your own astrological interpretations and personal understanding of the Moon’s Nodes in Action…

Paul F Newman

Please note that the study was written in 1998 and I have chosen not to update it, but simply to present the research as I completed it at the time. Being aware that other astrologers have published their own research since then,  I am happy  to make my small contribution, albeit somewhat retrospectively!

The Nodal Return cycle is 18.6 years. When I wrote the study, the North Node was in the sign of Virgo. I have just realised that it returns there in November 2015, the year my research is finally published in its entirety, eighteen years after I first began to write it in the autumn of 1997…

UPDATE 12.4. 2019:

In the last 3 years, over 5000 people have downloaded a free copy of this book, and I am delighted that they have done so – I’ve also received some wonderful feedback, e.g.

‘I want to give you feedback immediately: the value of your book is at least 1 million dollars and I got it for 7 dollars. What a buy and I have been through only 25 pages!’
