Happy Birthday Aries and Happy Astrological New Year!

The Fire sign of Aries is ruled by Mars and is the first one to get things started, initiating projects, and leading others. A cardinal (creative and inventive) sign, Aries the Ram governs leadership and initiative. The Ram is adventurous, ambitious, impulsive, enthusiastic, and full of energy.

People born when the Sun is in Aries are pioneers …
