People born with the South Node in 12th house have a strong tendency to take refuge in an imaginary world to escape the world. As children, they were able to experience disturbing things that offended their sensitivity to the point that they felt the need to cut themselves off from the world. To protect themselves, their defense was to create an imaginary world made up of personal daydreams in which they took the habit of withdrawing. In this world, they have long felt protected from the madness of the world, the absurdity of adults and their insensitivity.
