Her familiarity with the Vedic system and its mythology brings a unique perspective to her interpretation of the nodes. Borstein presents the fundamental facts about the Moon's Nodes and includes discussion of the True and Mean Nodes, the nodal cycle in transit, natal signs and houses of the nodes and their meaning, especially in how to move from the wounded soul, represented by the South Node, to higher consciousness, represented by the North Node. The book expands on the nodes in synastry and their roles in our relationships. Borstein presents the Hindu myths related to the nodes with an emphasis on the goddesses as consorts to the male deities and how their stories connect to the Lunar nodes.
