Martin Schulman’s Karmic Astrology, Vol. 1: The Moon’s Nodes and Reincarnation is one of those little books you almost underestimate—until you crack it open. This book is all about div ing into the meaning of the Moon’s nodes, exploring their placements in the signs and houses and what they mean for your soul’s growth. Schulman explains the nodes in such a way that you don’t just read it—you get it. He even breaks down what happens when planets aspect the nodes. The book goes beyond basic astrology by showing how these points reflect your karmic lessons and potential.
Schulman also includes some case studies of famous people like Edgar Casey and Martin Luther King Jr., which adds a nice touch. It’s not a super in-depth analysis, but it gives you enough to see how the nodes and their aspects work in real-life charts. Personally, I like these little examples because they help solidify the concepts he’s teaching.
What really clicked for me, though, is how practical this book is. It’s short—under 200 pages—but so efficient in how it explains things. You don’t get bogged down in overly academic language or too many side tangents. It’s a quick read, but the kind of book you end up pulling off the shelf again and again. I’ve already referenced it a ton, whether I’m working on my own chart or prepping for a client reading. It’s like having a cheat sheet for karmic astrology.
If you’re looking for something that’s easy to understand but still hits hard with insights, this is it. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants a deeper understanding of the Moon’s nodes—especially if you’re into the karmic and soul-growth side of astrology. Plus, it’s just a really handy guide to have on hand when you’re interpreting charts. It’s one of those books that’s small but mighty, and it’s been a game-changer for me.
