January 25 – Joe G. – The Double Dawn: The Two Year Story of the 2026 Aries Ingress

 

Joe G.

The Double Dawn:
The Two Year Story of the 2026 Aries Ingress

Stay at Home Webinar
Sunday, January 25, 2026
2 – 4 PM PT

2026 opens with an Aries Ingress that behaves less like a single-year chart and more like the first movement of a two-year cycle.
 
In this talk, I’ll walk through how I read Aries Ingress charts. what I prioritize, how I evaluate structure and timing, and the cues that show whether a year stands alone or belongs to a longer arc. I’ll also highlight how the Saturn–Neptune conjunction, the year’s eclipses, and the Venus retrograde echo the same transitional tone implied in the Ingress itself.
 
We’ll look at why the Aries emphasis of 2026 sets the ignition point and how Jupiter’s move into Leo amplifies the story as it carries into 2027, creating a clear “Part I / Part II” dynamic.
 
Joe G. is a certified Hellenistic and Electional Astrologer trained at Chris Brennan’s Astrology School, specializing in project-focused astrology and precision electional work. In 2025 he was elected ISAR’s Director of Marketing, and he also has worked and managed content for major astrology platforms such as Astrology Hub, Ruling Planets, and Oraculos. His work emphasizes strategy over personality profiling, and he has been featured at the CAELi Review and invited to speakand teach for CazimiCon, Astrology Hub’s Inner Circle, and Gemini Brett’s School of Earthstrology.

September 28 – Julia Balaz – Echoes of Ancient Civilizations through the Asteroids

 

Julia Balaz

Echoes of Ancient Civilizations through the Asteroids

Stay at Home Webinar
Sunday, September 28, 2025
10 am – 12 noon PT

Explore how selected Asteroids can validate resurfacing soul memories of ancient civilizations and how the echoes of our collective past are cycling back in a spiraling evolution. Tracking the movement of selected Asteroids can help us better understand and navigate resurfacing deep emotions, challenging situations, and opportunities to reach our greater potential in this incarnation.

The presentation will also cover case studies of people with strong ties to ancient civilizations, including Lemuria, Atlantis, ancient Egypt, and Mesopotamia.

Julia Balaz studied natal and transit charts of individuals who consciously retrieved soul memories of ancient civilizations either through past life hypnosis regression, vivid dreams, deep meditation, or purely through their not coincidental passionate focus on studying ancient civilizations.
