Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ancient myths describe an eclipse as the Sun or Moon being swallowed by a dragon. Since an eclipse could only occur near the lunar nodes, these became the head and tail of the dragon. Older references and eastern astrology still call the Moon's North Node the Dragon's Head and the South Node the Dragon's Tail. The Node Book goes beyond detailed information about the Moon's Nodes in signs and houses. Also included are chapters focused on the planetary nodes of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Pluto, and the nodes of the four main asteroids: Ceres, Vesta, Juno, and Pallas. Extensive tables and directions for their use make it easy to find the nodes for the planets and asteroids.
