What Is the Full Moon in Aquarius Revealing for You?
2w ago00:38:07Tap to summarizeThis week’s powerful Full Moon in Aquarius brings up important questions about who we are, where we belong, and where we may be ready for something to change. With a Jupiter cazimi and Pluto conjunct the Moon, something may be coming into clearer focus right now. In this episode, we’ll unpack what makes this Full Moon so unusual, what it may be revealing for us (collectively and individually) and how we can work with its energy as we consider what comes next.Note: This discussion is easier to follow with a visual cue. Be sure to take a look at the chart for this Full Moon.Want more astrology from me? Subscribe to my Substack: stefaniekateboucher.substack.comInterested in a reading?

Leo Season 2026: What to Expect and How to Work with It
3w ago00:40:13Tap to summarizeLeo season has arrived, and after an emotional and reflective Cancer season, the energy is finally beginning to shift. In this episode, we'll explore a season filled with “extra” Leo energy, which includes Jupiter in Leo, a powerful Aquarius Full Moon, the lunar nodes shifting to the Leo–Aquarius axis, and a total Solar Eclipse in Leo. We’ll also talk about the ways this energy is shifting us from inner reflection toward outward expression, encouraging us to be seen and take up more space, and offering us a little more courage to live authentically.Want the Leo Season post with rising sign info?

What to Do When the Astrology Scares You
4w ago00:40:01Tap to summarizeHave you ever looked ahead at your transits and worried that something upsetting was about to happen? In this episode, we're talking about how fear or anxiety can distort the way we read our charts, why astrology can’t predict one inevitable outcome, and what to do when or if a “daunting” transit sends you spiraling. I'll also share an experience I once had worrying about a distant transit, and how it played out much differently than I initially imagined.Subscribe to my Substack: stefaniekateboucher.substack.comInterested in a reading or want to check out my New Moon Circle?

Wait...How Can a New Moon Be Void of Course? A Listener Question Answered
Jul 800:21:16Tap to summarizeA listener recently asked a question that seems like a contradiction: How can someone be born on a New Moon if their Moon is also void of course? Doesn't a conjunction with the sun mean that the moon isn't void? In this episode, we unpack what each of these astrological concepts means and how both can be true at the same time. You'll also find out how these concepts apply to the upcoming New Moon in Cancer, what having a void of course new moon might feel like in a natal chart, and how this concept is being reflected in my own solar return (and life) this year.Want to prepare for the New Moon in Cancer?
