This week, Jupiter in Taurus pays off on our North Node dreams. Venus and Neptune provide a beautiful moment for showing affection and opening our hearts, though we should be a little careful about opening our wallets. The Sagittarius Full Moon takes us to Egypt (if only telepathically!), and Mercury and Uranus offer sudden realizations, revelations, and perceptions. And April answers a Listener Question about empty houses in the horoscope (spoiler alert: it might be a good thing!). Plus: A bugle, an open book, and a barren wasteland!

[1:19] Jupiter conjoins the Moon's North Node on June 1st (5:43 PM PDT) at 03°37’ Taurus, on the Sabian symbol, 4 Taurus, The rainbow's pot of gold. Ask yourself what you've learned, over the last 18 months, about trust, security and building true prosperity? Stay tuned for the upcoming nodal shift to the Aries/Libra axis on July 17, 2023!
[4:27] On June 2nd (3:42 PM PDT), Venus trines Neptune at 27°28’ of Cancer and Pisces. The Sabian symbol for Venus is 28 Cancer, A modern Pocahontas.

[10:59] Full Moons are often important times for relationships, and this Full Moon chart features Venus preparing for an opposition to Pluto and a conjunction to Mars. Pay attention to relationship tensions during this lunation.
[11:47] This Full Moon is part of a Lunar Phase Family that began with the New Moon on December 3, 2021 at 12° Sagittarius. The First Quarter Moon in this cycle occurred on September 3, 2022 at 11° Sagittarius, and the Last Quarter Moon is on March 3, 2024 at 13° Sagittarius. We're midway through a Sagittarius story that began in late 2021 and can see the results of what we "planted" then.
[13:20] Void-of-Course (VOC) Moon periods. On May 29th (2:45 AM PDT), the Moon in Virgo opposes Neptune in Pisces. It’ll be VOC for about five hours before entering Libra (7:50 AM PDT). Consider the balance between Virgo discernment and Pisces' compassionate forgiveness.
