The Tao of Astrology
Sun in Aries You walk the path of the courageous bearer of light as the urge to shine and harness creative energy is expressed through the archetype of the warrior, leader, and hero. The shape of your adventurous charisma and influence is defined by your ability to activate your bold essence, initiate heroic vitality, create a daring identity, express motivated consciousness, and illuminate the world with enterprising energy. It is through the archetype of the daredevil that you realize your creative potential and core identity, motivating others through explosive leadership. The element of fire is your spiritual fuel motivating you to charge into life’s challenges. You can recharge your life force through vigorous action, creating your visions, and living your aspirations. The Sun is exalted in Aries, enjoying the powerful release of the equinox and the New Year that begins astrologically in the spring. It is the force in you that yearns to spring forth into action. You can still hear the echo of Mars in the name March, as troops used to march into battles during the spring after a long winter of hibernation. After the mystical union with the eternal symbolized by the last sign of the zodiac, Pisces, Aries is about breaking through the surface of unified consciousness to once again become a singularity of the soul as a radiant individual. Wholeness emerges in your life when you are able to integrate the opposite archetype of Libra into your fiery nature. Then the impulsive warrior becomes the martial artist, a being of graceful action. The spiritual principle of Aries is Action. Carpe Diem. Size the Day! You are called to put ideas into action through the vibrant energy of your creativity and radiance. You must set goals and develop a strategy like a wise general. Don’t let fear inhibit you from initiating new adventures and overcoming obstacles. Step into the heart of your fears to vanquish them. With the Sun in Aries, the planet Mars takes on more significance in the birth chart as it disposits (governs) any planets found in its sign. The more planets that occupy its sign, the more influence it gains. Therefore, the chart position of Mars is vital to your creativity, spiritual recharge, and path of self-realization. It will also add qualities based on its sign, house, and aspects to the filed of your charisma. Your highest purpose involves becoming a source of courage, pioneering into unknown territory. You must invoke the power of the spiritual ram. The key to expressing the sun is to cultivate faith in the images that reside in your heart. When you become aware of your shadow you can transmute it into light and consciousness. The shadow of Aries includes restlessness, anger, pushiness, impulsiveness, and destructiveness. With the motivational power of Mars as your guide you are called to win the initiative, to claim your personal power, and radiate authentic individuality into the world. If you don’t do anything you can be sure that nothing will happen. If you claim your vitality, you have the special ability of raising the morale of lives you touch. |
