The Story of Aries
The Ram | March 21 - April 19
Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, bursts onto the scene with the vibrant energy of spring. Symbolized by the Ram, this fire sign is synonymous with courage, initiative, and a pioneering spirit.
Mythological Origins
In Greek mythology, Aries represents the Golden Ram that saved the children Phrixus and Helle. The ram's fleece, later sought by Jason and the Argonauts, became the legendary Golden Fleece.
The constellation honors the ram's sacrifice and bravery, immortalizing its head-first, determined charge across the heavens.
