Aries ♈
(March 21 – April 19)
Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac and the one that immediately precedes Taurus. Symbolized by the Ram, Aries embodies the spark of initiation, raw energy, and courageous spirit.
As a Fire sign ruled by Mars, Aries is characterized by passion, enthusiasm, and a pioneering drive. Its assertive and direct nature contrasts with the steady, sensual energy of the following sign, Taurus.
Where Aries initiates, Taurus stabilizes. This transition marks the shift from cardinal fire to fixed earth in the zodiac wheel.
