The perfect guide for Aries Season
Dream Idyll (A Valkyrie) | Edward Robert Hughes (English, 1851 – 1914)
Ahhh, Spring is here!
The New Year has finally started, astrologically, according to older cultures, and according to Nature.
I love Spring and chances are you do too!
Aries Season is dynamic, it’s a time of spontaneous growth after the cold and dead of winter! We all begin to feel more energized after the “sleep” that winter brings.
For that reason, this is an inspiring season and I want to discuss and explore some topics with you so you can utilize this energy best!
If you’re new to Astrology, or just want a refresher, here’s your complete guide to welcoming in this energy!
Here’s what I’m covering in this article:

Understanding Aries, The Ram
Aries is a cardinal fire sign, that initiates the season of Spring and is symbolized by The Ram who begins the astrological wheel of the zodiac year.
Aries is ruled by Mars, who is also the roman God of War, equivalent to the Greek God of War, Ares.
Aries energy is all about:
being the first to start & initiate
bold, spontaneous action
the bravery & spirit of the warrior
action-orientated energy
a ridiculously high amount of self-confidence
I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-A-N-C-E
aggression, violence, & an ill-temper when in a shadow energy
Aries is really the spark of life that is ignited. Think of the first bloom of Spring. The bold, daring spirit of the warrior to face battle, courageously and charging forward, to be the first and therefore the best (in their eyes lol)!
What to expect
In general, the season of Spring is highly contagious and inspiring in trying new things and making more moves.
You can expect to be more motivated, more assertive in going after what you desire, & having more confidence in doing so.
Aries energy is also highly impulsive, relying on quick gut instinct rather than mental prowess. Think of the Warrior fighting in battle, no time to stop and make lists to plan out the next move! You move and figure it out, you do what you can and hope for the best!
If you have any goals or dreams, now is the time to be super clear about them and just move forward, you can figure it out as you’re playing in the field & finally doing the damn thing!
Less over-thinking and planning, and more doing!
Mars is focused on the self, so self-improvement and reaching your own potential is highly encouraging right now! Definitely a time to establish more boundaries if you are more focused on others and serving others.
It is 100% okay to put you first and be assertive!
My only words of caution are to be careful to not lash out in anger, be too reckless, or become aggressive and overly competitive out of selfishness!
Here are a few questions to ask yourself during Aries season, to have the best time moving through this energy.
Your questionnaire
Where in your life can you be more assertive, bold, and take up your space courageously?
Where in your life or about what do you need to be more straightforward about?
Is there anything you’ve been avoiding or are afraid to confront and look at? List them out and check them off.
Do you feel you’ve been courageous with your life? Where are you still playing small or settling?
What have you been wanting to start or try out and experiment with? GO FUCKING DO IT!
Pretty straightforward, just like Aries :)
5 tips to move through this season
Be bold & assertive
Seriously, go and take it, claim it, and be bold about it!
TRY it out. Now is the time.
Be Straightforward
This is the perfect time to learn to not beat around the bush and to tackle things head first. If you like to scuttle sideways from discomfort, charge ahead.
Say what you mean and mean what you say. Warriors are respected because they not only say they’re going to battle, they actually go into battle like they said they would.
Put yourself first
Not out of selfishness, where you don’t care about others (which is a shadow energy for Aries)
Especially for people who are people-pleasers, are “givers”, or otherwise very busy/parents/etc.
Take time for yourself! Generously!!
Welcome the Spontaneity
No doubt a tip for those that don’t already go with the flow and are more prone to controlling outcomes, like Earth signs.
If you feel super inspired to take action, take it!
You don’t always need to know everything, you’ll figure it out as you go along.
Be aware of impatience & a short temper
Don’t let this energy get out of hand if you know you’re easily irritable.
Aries wants it RIGHT NOW, that’s why it charges forward to get it. Sometimes patience is required and thinking things through is a good thing. Balance is necessary.
Think of a child throwing a tantrum because they didn’t get what they wanted. Yeah, Aries can be a little similar!
This could be a time where you get to work on any anger or feel old issues around anger and aggression coming back up. Move through it, feel it, and let it go. No need to act or say things in temper.
I hope that was helpful for you!
I’m wishing you all the blessings of tapping into your inner warrior!
