The Astrology Series: What is Aries?

The sense I’m getting about Astrology is that it’s a way to discuss the four main different types of elements: Fire, Earth, Air and Water. There are a lot of different types of energies but they are made up of these primary elements.

The first Astrological constellation is Aries. What is Aries? Aries is the god of war. An astrology chart also describes Aries in another way - Aries is ruled by Mars. It is fire. It is cardinal (first and strong). It is masculine.

Therefore Aries is a configuration of stars that appears to move in a certain direction in the night sky. Aries is an archetype inspired by the god of war. Aries is a specific type of fire. It’s what you see when you light a fire and that initial burst of energy comes across.

Aries is the sign that roughly covers, in a sense, the month of April. April is around when the “Sun is in Aries”. Aries season corresponds with the first burst of life that occurs in Spring. Astrology, at least the type we’re examining, begins in Spring. Aries is young and full of energy and it’s masculine. We are doing everything we can to find ways to discuss energy.

Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It’s going to impact us whether we know it or not. Learning about it can only be helpful. Is Astrology a valid way to understand such a subtle and vital subject as energy?

The endurance and pervasiveness of the study of Astrology all over the world would suggest that it really might be. Does real Astrology involve the “mysteries” that certain groups are keeping to themselves? Are the junky newspaper horoscopes there to discredit a field which is vital to the present rulership’s hold and power over the rest of us?

I have been trying to figure out what’s really going in this world for the last few years. Somewhere somebody said something along the lines of “regular people don’t hire astrologers. Billionaires do.” That clicked so hard for me because that is true. Astrology is everywhere. Some really rich people seem to take Astrology much more seriously than most regular people do. Hollywood movies are drenched with allusions to Astrology. Yet we’re frequently being transmitted the message somehow that Astrology is for flakes, charlatans and dupes.

Since so much effort has been put into closing me out of media, shutting down my numbers, infiltrating my project and taking down my Wikipedia entry, I’ve been forced to conclude that one group that not so secretly hates the type of thing I do is running media, cartel style. Our perceptions really are being formed by movies, tv, periodicals and such. The majority of the public are unfortunately thinking what a certain group wants them to think. They want us to view Astrology as hokey - yet its symbols are omnipresent. They want us to view celebrities and “royals” as ultra special and important (which is absurd to me). Astrology is the ultimate thing that is being hidden in plain sight.

The above image shows the placement of my constellation of Aries at the time of my birth. It is an intercepted sign in the 12th house (water, isolation). I discuss my intercepted sign situation here. For the purpose of this discussion, we’ll say that my Aries has been a bit frustrated and inaccessible due to the interception. Aries is also contained under the 12th house which is very ocean like. That doesn’t sound good. I have Mars (and Chiron) in there.

According to the chart, Mars in Aries is making tense connections with Jupiter and Uranus. Not only that but Mars in Aries is really close to my Ascendant. My Ascendant is supposed to be how I come across to others. There’s a mélange of flavors swirling around but what I’m seeing is a warrior at war in an isolated sea of consciousness. Sounds about right.
