Mercury and Jupiter in Taurus: A Fresh Start

In episode 399 astrologers we look ahead at the astrological forecast for May of 2023, with astrologers Chris Brennan, Austin Coppock, and Claire Moon. May opens with a solar eclipse in Scorpio, as well as the second half of a Mercury retrograde in Taurus. Later in the month Mars moves into Leo and then forms a T-square with Jupiter in Taurus and Pluto in Aquarius. At the top of the episode we talk about some recent news and events, such as the discovery of a lost text by the 2nd century astrologer Claudius Ptolemy, or the identification of the earliest woman who is known by name to have been a practicing astrologer.
