Emerging from the depths of the Piscean waterworld and its thorough drenching in all the feels is miraculous. Aries always arrives like an exclamation mark as fresh fire sparks in our bellies. First we warm up, then we dry off and before you know it you are cartwheeling through the first week of the astrological year with sparks flying from your fingers.

The initiation of this particular Aries season demands nothing less than you setting the world alight. This year is a reckoning that conjures courage under fire. Aries teases out the bravery to stand loudly and proudly for what we believe in and the indefatiguable energy required to build our brave new worlds. The ramrod delivers in spades with a no bullshit can do attitude that never backs down from a battle and is willing to see it all the way through.

This time last year the cardinal hinge forced us within to bravely confront the sleeping dragons woken by lockdown and pandemonium. Not to slay but to become them, fire catching in our throats and hearts. Aries' arrival immolates any fear of flying and emboldens even the littlest dragons to blaze a trail.

Aries undeniable bravado and chutzpah is what fuels their leadership. Their competitive spirit challenges them to better themselves. They boldly go where others baulk. They raise their voice and the stakes and charge the tower. If ever we could do with a hearty dose of self belief and faith in our future selves it is now.

Aries is both initiation and ignition point, a fiery imperative to fan whatever you are flaming about. For any of us to get started, it only takes a spark. Anticipate a stunning return to form. Kick in, stretch out and plant the seeds now for your season in the sun.

Do not wait until conditions are perfect. Beginning makes them perfect.
