Ryan Hunt1_Initiator: Mars - $35

Five Cosmic Catalysts for Your Best Year Yet is an uplifting and accessible 5-class astrology series created specifically to harness the powerful momentum of the New Year. Designed to help students step into the coming year with clarity, confidence, and a deeper sense of alignment, this course weaves together traditional technique, archetypal insight, and practical application.
Each class explores one of the five major planetary forces that reliably shape the unfolding of a year—Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto, and Uranus—presented as catalysts for personal growth and transformation. Students will learn how these planets activate momentum, opportunity, structure, renewal, and breakthrough, and how to work with their movements to set intentions, navigate challenges, and embrace meaningful change.
This series is crafted to meet students wherever they are on their astrological journey. It offers enough technical depth to satisfy seasoned astrologers while remaining clear and engaging for newcomers who want to understand the energetic themes of the year ahead. The archetypal framework makes the material memorable and inspiring, while the astrological content ensures students walk away with practical tools they can return to throughout the year.
This course is particularly well-suited to January, when many people are naturally seeking renewal, direction, and a fresh sense of purpose. The language of “Cosmic Catalysts” resonates with the collective desire to start the year with intention and empowerment. Synchronicity University’s global community, known for its enthusiasm for spiritually informed astrology, will find this approach both inspiring and practical. The course blends accessible astrological teaching with personal growth, mirroring the values that students of SU consistently respond to: clarity, empowerment, timing awareness, and meaningful transformation.
 
COURSE STRUCTURE: THE FIVE CATALYSTS
Each catalyst is taught as an archetype, a timing principle, and a psychological force.
 
Catalyst 1: The Initiator — Mars - Wednesday, January 7, 2026 at 6:00pm EST
Courage • Action • Momentum
Mars is the force that sparks movement, desire, and decisive action. This catalyst helps students recognize when Mars is signaling a need to take a leap, set a boundary, or adjust direction. We explore how Mars transits shape motivation, how to differentiate aligned action from reactive impulses, and how to work with frustration as information rather than resistance. Students will leave with a clearer sense of where their year wants them to initiate and what forms of action will be most effective.
