South Node in Libra
The South Node in Libra is the familiar deferring, pleasing and living through others; the North Node in Aries asks for the self's own desire. The habit accommodates; the growth asserts.
In plain words
The South Node stands for what you already know too well. In Libra, that works in a Libra way: fair, charming and slow to decide. You weigh both sides and want everyone to get along.
