Aries Season đ Spring Equinox 2023
artist: Raymond Douillet
Mar 20 (Spring Equinox) – Apr 20, 2023
Your sun sign is just one planet in your star soup. Curious about the rest? Contact me for a natal chart reading!
From the belly of a long, strange dream, you awaken. The earth is cold and night yet all around. You crawl to the shore. Step by step, dark water falls away. Ahead looms the mountain. You climb effortlessly and without hesitation. Your eyes open to a blood red sun, rising over jagged peaks. You kneel before the gong, body quaking with the earth as she splits, and into her fires you fall.
Welcome to the crimson mesa, where feral flames lick inner shores. If Pisces is the last breath, Aries is the first. Pisces season dismantles everything; Aries arrives on the wings of the spring equinox. This cycle represents the turning of the earth toward all that is new.
Aries season is an examination of the ego, that force within us which is most fundamental to our sense of self, our sense of being. This means sitting and watching it all come in, the endless parade of thoughts and impulses and aversions and attachments, the parade of ME and what it means to be a conscious human. Weâll move too. Aries loves to move. This archetype embodies the third yogic niyama known as tapas, or heat generated by the body. The literal translation of tapas is austerity or discipline â so it is not just heat, but the burning of impurities, a burning which leaves us cleared, ready to commit, ready to step forward into new life, into a new chapter.
Here we are, the first stop on the zodiac wheel, burning up with springtime lust. Change and endings during the Pisces season start to make sense. Pen and page touch; planets form. The sun blazes down from on high, begging us to jump headfirst into the year.
A scarlet gem smolders in the pineal gland, arousing the senses. This is the ramâs invincible life-giving power. Suffering sizzles in columns of sparkling vermilion smoke. Doubt, insecurity, and fear evaporate. Fire does not reflect, it moves. Dance, fill the dark sky with your light. See the sun chase down this endless dark night of the soul.
