What a Nodal reversal is

Halfway through the nodal cycle: a pull back toward old patterns tests whether you have really changed.

from the Nodal reversal

It happens around 9, 28, 46 and 65. The exact dates depend on where the lunar nodes were when you were born, which is why two people the same age can be a year apart in theirs. The app computes the start, exact and end dates for yours and puts them on your calendar.

Did it land?

This is the part most astrology leaves out. revolutionary.life asks you to log your turning points, a job, a move, a relationship, a loss, and scores every window, including this one, against what actually happened: the share of events that fell inside a window against what chance would give. The number is shown whether it is good or bad.

Questions

When is my Nodal reversal?

Around 9, 28, 46 and 65, with the exact dates set by your birth chart. revolutionary.life computes the window (start, exact, end) from your birth date, time and place and adds it to your forecast and calendar.

How long does a Nodal reversal last?

The window opens when the node comes within about a degree and a half of the exact point and closes when it leaves, usually several months to a year or more for the slow planets, with one to three exact dates inside it because of retrograde motion.
