Aries is the pioneer of the zodiac. Aries want to always be the first to do something. It is a cardinal, fire sign. Aries represents the first month of spring, and as such it can be very self-sensitive and easily discouraged, just like an early flower in spring can be hurt by a late frost. The planetary ruler of Aries is Mars, representing the energy that Aries displays, and the traditional symbol for the sign is a ram -- headstrong and aggressive. A medieval type for Aries is the soldier. While Aries is good at initiating things, the sign is not good at follow through.

The Sanskrit name for this month is Mesha - the Ram

NANA - The Crusader. In Hawaiian mythology, is depicted by a Crusader with a headstrong force like the Ram in Greek mythology.

APRIL
Month of the Pink Moon, when (mostly pink) flowers covered the land. April is also known as the month of the Sprouting Grass Moon, referring to the new growth of spring.

The cuckoo comes in April,
He sings his song in May,
In the middle of June,
He changes his tune,
And then he flies away.

April -- Hare Moon

The sacred animal was associated in Roman legends with springtime and fertility.


Native American Astrology

Many Native American traditions teach that there are twelve Earth Personalities that make up the Earth Medicine Wheel. These are an earth-centered, rather than planet-based, kind of horoscope that gives us valuable information about our totem animal, our personality, and our spirit-task in life.
