This, however, is not always the case.
Dharma and karma.
Karma includes accumulated energies from our past that are continuously informing the present.

Favorable astrological placements, in contrast, may reflect previously developed skills or charitable actions.
Key astrological elements for finding your purpose.

The north node relates to where we are going in this life.
The south node reflects the mastery we’ve achieved.
It can also reveal weaknesses.
An important thing to understand about the nodes is that they stay in the same sign for 1.5 years.

I believe our soul uses astrology to plan and communicate multiple details about our intended lives.
The sun sign shows the primary energetic themes an individual is working with and through.
The moon, like the south node, suggests probable past-life abilities and experiences.
Rising signs indicate talents and traits we effortlessly display.
The career will ideally incorporate both of those energies.
Additionally, the second house cusp reveals something about how money is made.
Find the rulers of the signs on the sixth and 10th house cusps.
Examine the north node.
If it is in the sixth or 10th house, career is essential to the purpose of your soul.
Check for planets in yoursixth and 10th houses.
These show energies the soul is intending to use in its career.
If these gifts are not given, the soul will feel a sense of lack or frustration.
Finally, observe the remaining planets scattered around your chart.
Alternatively, they reflect elements of your purpose to be expressed in other areas of your life.
The takeaway.
Astrology can, however, help us use our time more efficiently.
If this is your situation, look within your chart.
Every astrologic detail reveals your soul’s intentions, with clues to orient you to your path.
