After having traveled the zodiac wheel, here we are at the beginning of a new astrological year. During the spring equinox, the Sun entered the first sign of the zodiac, that of Aries. The dreamy and fluid Pisces season draws to an end, we welcome the bold and energetic Aries season. The return of spring rhymes with Aries season which lasts from March 20 to April 19.
First sign of the zodiac of the horoscope is a so-called “cardinal” sign, that is to say an initiator, a leader. It is associated with the constellation of the same name in sidereal astrology.
In the writings of the Old Testament and the Koran, the ram is mentioned as a sacrificial animal, particularly in relation to the story of Abraham/Ibrahim. In Celtic mythology, it embodies the vigor of nature and fertility. As for Greek mythology, the ram is of particular importance, the myth of the golden fleece being only one of its many symbolic aspects. The origin of the legend of Aries goes back to Dionysus (Bacchus for the Romans), divinity associated with the vine and wine. As he leads his army towards India through the arid deserts of Libya, where water is scarce, a ram shows him the way to a saving oasis.
Aries is the element of fire, in close connection with the sun, it knows how to rekindle the flame, restore energy and enthusiasm. Aries embodies its element with vibrancy. Fully connected to its season, spring, it willingly embodies this fiery sap, the desire to create, to act, quickly, here and now with confidence, courage and determination.
Mars being his planet of reference, it gives him a lot of determination and courage and thus encourages him to act. The flamboyant planet of taking action, of impulses, of desires, of daring, makes Aries adventurous, leader and impulsive, nothing stops him.
Aries likes to lead, to scout, to charge in with decadent energy and then think. Honest, complete, he never cheats and benefits from a passionate soul who never gets bored of anything. This combative fire sign represents the Warrior archetype which gives us the strength to go to the front for what really matters. This fiery masculine energy begins a new cycle where we can set our intentions with love and have the courage to take action to make our dreams come true.
The famous rams are Céline Dion, Lady Gaga, Elton John, Serge Gainsbourg, Jean-Paul Belmondo, Charlie Chaplin and Marlon Brando.
Let’s wish a happy birthday to all Aries. I hope that my selection of pieces for natives of this sign will please you and will give you some gift ideas to offer or treat yourself.
