the moon's nodes

According to the site below:

"The Moon's Nodes are points in space representing the points where the moon's orbit around the earth crosses the ecliptic. The North Node is the point where the Moon's orbit rises above the Ecliptic, and the South Node is the point where the Moon's orbit falls below the Ecliptic. The North Node and the South Node are always exactly opposite each other in the chart."
