When is the nodal return for someone born in 2009?
The first nodal return for 2009 births lands between August 13, 2027 and August 11, 2028, depending on the birthday (January birthdays earliest, December birthdays latest, because the node moves backward through the zodiac). The month table on this page narrows it to your birth month; the calculator above solves the exact day for your birthday.
Does everyone born in 2009 have the same nodal return date?
No. The North Node moves about nineteen degrees a year, backward, so a January and a December 2009 birthday carry natal nodes up to nineteen degrees apart and the transiting node reaches them almost a year apart. Within one birth month the spread is a few weeks, which is why each row shows an earliest and a latest date.
What sign is the North Node in for 2009 births?
It depends on the day: the North Node changed sign during 2009, so 2009 births carry the North Node in Capricorn or Aquarius. The month rows above note which months straddle the change; the calculator resolves it exactly from your birth date.
Do I need my birth time for my nodal return date?
Not for the date. The mean node moves about a twentieth of a degree a day, so the birth date alone fixes the return to within a day. The birth time decides the house your North Node sits in, which is where astrologers say the re-alignment plays out, so enter it if you have it and leave noon if you do not.
How long does the nodal return last for 2009 births?
Counting the stretch in which the transiting node sits within one degree of its natal degree (about five weeks either side of the exact day at the mean node's pace), the first return for 2009 births spans July 26, 2027 to August 29, 2028 across the whole cohort. Astrologers usually read the wider year around it as the return season.
When is the second nodal return for 2009 births?
The second return for 2009 births lands between March 25, 2046 and March 24, 2047 across the cohort, around age 37. These are solved crossings, not birth year plus a round number.
