Aries in the Sky!

What’s UP Aries in the SKY! Party time. Kind of :)

Aries is all about differentiation. I AM. Aries claims its uniqueness, its individual authenticity and sovereign path. Where Pisces (the sign before) dissolved all boundaries into the dreamy, blurry, and boundless- Aries carves itself out from the rest, working with themes of Ego, separation, and distinction.

Aries is here to claim its place in the world- this is who I am! These are my gifts, this is my purpose, this is why I am here right now- see me shine, watch me blaze forward- unapologetically, fiercely, with spirit, fire, and flame.

Aries is an action sign. Often, it doesn’t wait until its ready- it moves with intuition, instinct, and authority. Perfection or not- ready or not- here we come! It rides momentum like a magic carpet, unconcerned if the carpet flies- totally fearless… Knowing that it may not fly, but if it doesn’t- there will be something else, something new, a new creative hit to follow and fly with soon.

When Aries is in its light, she is bold, assertive, and deeply attuned to intuition. She works with impulse (sometimes to her detriment!), and is often times ahead of the curve.

The one piece I want to focus on for this little word project is Aries’ primal orientation or archetypal nature, which is to separate. To be different. To blaze trails, often solo.

When we look at one of the most Chironic wounds of Aries- it is often interwoven with their inherent nature. To separate. To differentiate. To walk their own unique and authentic path. To be uncompromising - I AM WHO I AM.

I AM.

While this is definitely their reason and their why, it also comes with deep seated wounds of the same thread. Wounds like:

• Am I enough (when I am exactly who I am)?

• Is my presence allowed, or am I “too much,” “too direct,” “too disruptive?"

• Do I belong (even when my truth of being is uncomfortable to hold)? Or if I choose myself, will I lose connection…

• Rejection + Exclusion - often of their own creation.

• Isolation + “I’ll do it myself" vibe (I think of Mother Goose- I’ll do it myself!)

Am I allowed to be exactly as I am?
If I choose myself… will I lose connection?

Aries is designed to be the origin of life force… yet often carries the imprint that its very existence is disruptive, which causes a distortion of Self-trust.

In truth, often Aries becomes a lone wolf and walks a relatively lonely life. They learn to protect themselves by expecting rejection or exclusion, and consequently keep their boundary strong.

I know, because I AM :) I have Aries Sun, Mercury, and Mars- and when I am calling this out- I am feeling it so true. Welcome to some of my biggest wounds. The good news- as I get older, I continue to care less and less about fitting in- especially in the name of truth! I AM!

Ok… So! This is a ramble, but it’s getting to something important. Stay with me :)

We have a sky LIT up with Aries. Talk about a stellium- we have: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Neptune, Saturn, Chiron, Eris- all in Aries, all hanging out very close together in the second house of values (or better known as the second house of possessions).

The second house is ruled by the sun sign Taurus and its planetary ruler Venus. With Venus- we see relationships, values, and what we are devoted to… And, with Taurus- we work with our body, the material world, and self worth. This connection tends to themes like: personal finances, material possessions, (self) worth and values, and emphasizes our need for stability, strong roots, relationships built to last, and earth-bound luxuries. This house gifts us a delicious life of sensation, beauty, and comfort and showcases what we value personally.

The field is ARIES: Spark of lifeforce. Divine creation. Lead forward with heart. Move with momentum. Do what only you are here to do. So take that, place it in your heart, and meditate- what are you gonna do?

This is POTENT astrology- for creators. Aries in Saturn- make it your own- this life, your purpose, what you are here to share- it is for you- and you alone. You can’t copy anyone. You need to do what only you can do. So what is it?

And… A call to check in- on values, on self-worth, on what you are surrounding yourself with- does it align?

Lift your inside worth, stay true to your highest values, and the outside world will start to reflect this back to you (I am in the lessons of this right now… as I blow up my world and redirect my energy to new systems that will support me to where I need to go).

So- there is SO much to speak about in this chart- but… What I really want to talk about is Chiron and Eris sitting with this Moon and Sun. So, let’s dig in.

The potency of this chart, in my humble opinion- is where the wounds are.

The Sun and Moon are both at 27 degrees (final degrees initiate closing cycles) and these two celestial bodies are sitting with Chiron (26 degrees) and Eris (25 degrees). So these four bodies are super tight- and speaking loudly to and through each other.

Eris holds potent mythology. She is known to create discord, disruption, and chaos, but really- she is a catalyst for honest reckoning. When excluded, she shines a bright light on exclusion itself, unearthing inconvenient truths that often challenge the status quo.

What is exclusion if not a system trying to maintain itself by silencing what it cannot integrate. :) Eris doesn’t destroy harmony, but rather reveals where harmony never existed in the first place.

What truth had to be excluded to maintain this illusion of order?

What truth has to be excluded in your own life in order to maintain your illusion of order?

Eris is the edge of belonging.
The place where rejection becomes initiation… Where being cast out becomes the threshold of self-authority.

Chiron- is our deepest wound. It is the wound we can’t get “rid” of until we learn it’s lessons through compassion and presence. An invitation of softening as an access point to wisdom. Chrion’s wounds are not healed by removal, but rather transformed through the power of awareness, acceptance, and embodied care.

So- we have this mix. This party. Lifting wounds to the surface- direct and fierce- Aries style.

I suppose the invitation here, as these celestial bodies transit the final degrees of Aries together, is to look at these deep wounds that Aries holds- bring them to the light, surface them to consciousness, and integrate them. Looking at them- with presence and compassion has the power to shift these wounds into both wisdom + personal and collective care.

Am I enough- you have always been enough.

Am I too much- it’s safe to be exactly who you are.

Do I belong- as much as you allow yourself to.

Am I safe to be exactly who I am, and still be included? - It is my prayer we hold each other in this way.

Aries drives authentic essence. May we follow this path of identity fearlessly and fiercely- with spirit, heart, and deep intuition + instinct.

You are not meant to follow anyone else. To be anyone else. To think like or act like or dance like- ANYONE ELSE. You are here, this one tiny speck of time- to be YOU.

Be unapologetic. Move inward to move outward. Know thyself, Love thyself, BE thyself- fully and completely, always.

Ok that’s all for now :)

May we move in kind, gentle, and inclusive ways- always.

May we look within to find the all the sneaky places we reject ourselves, so that we are sure not to project these insecurities and rejections outward.

ILOVEYOU
