Frequently Asked Questions
The Moon's nodes are the two points where the Moon's orbit crosses the ecliptic (the apparent path of the Sun). The North Node (Rahu) is where the Moon crosses from south to north, and the South Node (Ketu) is the opposite point.
The North and South Nodes are always 180° apart because they are the intersection points of the Moon's orbit with the ecliptic; the line connecting them passes through the center of the Earth.
This calculator uses a simplified mean node formula, which gives approximate positions. For precise astrological calculations, consider using professional ephemeris software.
