Aries Season: New Year, New You February 18 – March 20th

When the Sun enters 0° of Aries, it marks the Astrological New Year: the symbolic reset of the zodiac cycle. Astrologically, it represents a time for fresh starts, taking initiative, and building momentum as the Sun begins moving through all 12 signs again over the year.

Aries is a fire sign and the first sign of the zodiac, symbolizing vitality, action, and new beginnings. The Sun exalts Aries, amplifying energy, confidence, motivation, leadership, and self-expression. This fiery season encourages bold beginnings, renewed confidence, and decisive action following the quiet, reflective close of Pisces season. The Sun in Pisces inspired you to absorb post-eclipse season lessons, release what no longer serves you, and process messy emotions or experiences. 

As the season ends, we transition from introspection into a fiery phase of integration and forward momentum. Carry the wisdom of Pisces into a new season of life.
