Astro-tourism, the act of traveling to natural, dark-sky locations to witness astronomical events, is gaining popularity as light pollution prevents most people from seeing the Milky Way from their homes. In addition to chasing eclipses, such as the upcoming annular solar eclipse in 2023 and total eclipse in 2024, astro-tourists can also enjoy meteor showers, which occur when Earth passes through comet dust. Tips for aspiring astro-tourists include considering the phase of the Moon, checking weather conditions, finding dark-sky locations using light pollution maps, arriving early to adapt to the dark, and using red light to preserve night vision.

Taurus horoscope for June 2023 suggests that the recent eclipses in Taurus and Scorpio have brought changes in their lives. The most recent eclipse on May 5, 2023, was mainly friendly, but the one last year on November 8, 2022, and the one last month were among the most difficult. Uranus, the planet of unexpected outcomes, played a strong role in both eclipses. If Taurus readers felt the impact of these eclipses, they might still be dealing with the residue of the changes. Those born near May 5 or have natal planets at 15 degrees Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, or Aquarius may notice the effects of the May 5 eclipse on the full moon in June.
