Aries
We salute the Spring Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere this time of year and it is all about you Aries, Happy Birthday and happy planting. We say fair well to Pisces for now the ground has been prepared by our water sign and now we welcome in the Sun Sign Aries. When the constellation of Aries is high in the sky, the ancients knew it was time to planet the new crops, when the sign of Aries shows itself you know the land is fertile for new seedlings.
It is time for growing, exploring, shouting with joy and laughing it is time to rejoice and embrace new life, the gifts of new birth and new direction for us all. All you have to do if you have the courage is rally in the energies of this rambunctious sign, and you have new, new and more new. Aries is an early morning sign waking at dawn to meet the world and all it has to offer, you are the first sign of the zodiac.
Under the tropical zodiac the Sun is in Aries from March 21 to April 19 the vernal equinox, and the Astrological New Year is here, hail to spring. During this astrological new year we also embrace the energies of your ruling planet Mars.
When you pronounce Mars you want to put the sound of “Z” at the end “MARZ”, named after the Roman God of war, and bloodshed, its not really that bad. For you Aries the glyph symbol for Mars is a spear and shield. Each planetary symbol is associated with particular human attributes or qualities Mars is the archetype Warrior, Hero, Leader, your key words are “I Act.” Mars is the action planet vivid, strong, bold, signifies power and heroism, motivation and manifest leadership.
Maybe that is why Arians have a soldier like appearance and temperament and do very well in high official positions. Arians are leaders, independent and like to go on their own, not likely to take advice and they work well under pressure, in fact they love it.
Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun in the Solar System and is considered the red planet because of its reddish appearance and has two moons Phobos and Deimos both small and irregularly shaped. Mars is the action planet, it is about drive, force, strength, ambitions and love of competition, even at times domineering, and sometimes militant, “I want” and “I will get.”
Mars is the god of war represented by Ares (Greek), Mars (Roman), Indra (Hindu), Odin (Nordic), Attis-Adonis (Asia-Minor). No obstacle is too great and not enemy too strong, with Mars energies we can learn to act as independent and self-sufficient; Mars gives us courage, and the will to act.
The cycle of Mars encourages development of skills; you can enhance your career, or improve you relationships. Mars has a fairly short cycle approximately 2 ½ years, and spends about 57 days in each sign. Which means that repeating patterns can be easily observed and used for personal benefit, just grasp the lessons Mars offers, with Aries determination.
