Today is the Vernal Equinox, the first day of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and the first day of autumn in the Southern Hemisphere where day and night, light and dark are of equal length. With the Sun entering the fire sign of Aries today, we begin another astrological New Year with a cosmic energy of renewal and passion that activates our inner warrior.

As we move into Aries season, the pace of life can pick up, motivating us to claim courage as we face any fears and take right action that empowers and moves us in the direction of our needs and desires.

With Mars, the ruler of Aries currently in the sign of Aquarius and in a square with Uranus in Taurus, there is a personal and collective drive to stand in our truth as we work to integrate changes in stability and security.

In the Northern Hemisphere it is a fertile time underlining the beginning of spring and new life and growth. Regardless of which part of the world one lives the beginning of Aries season sparks us all with a spirited initiative energizing our lives.
