5/4/23 ✨ Venus Square Neptune and Sextile Jupiter
✨ Happy Jupiter Day!
SUN IN TAURUS | MOON IN LIBRA >> SCORPIO
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I am not afraid of my own darkness.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♊️ VENUS SQUARE ♓️ NEPTUNE AND SEXTILE ♈️ JUPITER (26º - 27º) 10:30 AM - 9:00 PM PT
Lover Venus spends the day entangled in a thruple with Neptune and Jupiter. These transits create a rosy fog, making it all too easy to get lost in a fantasy. Our intellect is the way to our heart, but we’re quick to buy into pretty illusions. Jupiter’s sextile amplifies feelings of desire. Life will feel beautiful, but beware of making any major commitments based on a momentary pleasure.

THE MOON:
🌔 WAXING GIBBOUS MOON IN LIBRA ♎️
The waxing gibbous moon in Libra asks us what adjustments we need to make to find more balance and peace in our lives. As shadows surface throughout eclipse season, they could reveal what we feel has been unfair or unjust. Our relationships are the focus under the Libra moon and it will feel natural to process our emotions with others. How can you find your own center amidst the chaos?
♎️ MOON OPPOSITE ♈️ JUPITER (27º) 2:00 AM PT
An overnight opposition to Jupiter tips the scales of the Libra moon, making for over-the-top dreams or restless sleep. We are energetically open during this transit. Lack of self control is possible as well.
VOID MOON FROM 2:00 AM - 7:30 AM PT
We start our Thursday under a void moon. Take it slow this morning. Wait to start any projects or embark on any endeavors until the moon moves into Scorpio.
🌕 FULL MOON ➡️ SCORPIO ♏️ (7:33 AM PT)
The moon becomes full in the deep, dark sign of Scorpio, taking us into our shadows to illuminate what has been hidden. Intense emotions are likely to surface around this full moon, especially as it reaches it’s culminating point- a lunar eclipse on Friday morning. New beginnings are often disguised as endings. Let burn what needs to burn to create space for what’s to come.
♏️ MOON SQUARE ♒️ PLUTO RX (0º) 8:00 AM PT
As the moon dives into Scorpio, it makes an immediate square to Pluto, forcing fears and repressed emotions to the surface. Tension and power struggles are possible this morning. It will be tempting to try to control or manipulate the situation, but this eclipse asks us to surrender and let whatever is coming up be felt so it can be released.
♏️ MOON CONJUNCT ♏️ SOUTH NODE (3º) 1:00 PM PT
Serious purging energy. The moon meets the South Node, bringing the past into our present emotional experience. It’s all too easy to slip into old patterns and stories. Remember- what’s coming up now is asking to be released so we can align with our destiny.
♏️ MOON TRINE ♓️ SATURN (5º) 5:00 PM PT
Responsibility comes naturally on Thursday evening. This is a powerful moment to step up and take the lead. We are logical and realistic, allowing us to see the lessons we’ve been learning through a more mature lens.
♏️ MOON OPPOSITE ♉️ MERCURY RX (9º) MIDNIGHT
Our mind and our heart are at odds late tonight as the moon opposes Mercury. Yet, we have an intense need to try to get to the bottom of why we feel the way we feel. Beware of obsessing- clarity is not likely today.
✨TRANSITING IN THE BACKGROUND (within a degree)
✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
We settle into a rosy fog this Thursday as lover Venus connects with Neptune and Jupiter. Love is amplified, making it easy to feel optimistic. But confusion and illusion are in the forecast as well. This is not the day to make big decisions about relationships or finances. Instead, use these energies to dream about what is possible. The moon dives into Scorpio this morning, clashing with Pluto at 0º. Intense emotions and past patterning are likely to surface today. Beware of trying to control or manipulate. Instead, explore shadows and excavate what’s been hidden. Total clarity isn’t likely, but we could begin to understand what lessons the Universe has been trying to teach us.
