Mythology & Symbolism
The ram represents forward motion such as climbing, charging, initiating. In mythology, Aries is linked to the golden ram of Greek legend, who saved Phrixus and Helle and whose golden fleece was later sought by Jason and the Argonauts.
Symbolically, Aries teaches us about bravery, not the absence of fear, but the will to act despite it.
Aries in Love & Friendship

Mars is the planet of action, desire, and raw instinct. Under Mars’ rulership, Aries becomes the spark of the zodiac, the initiator. This influence makes Aries passionate, sometimes hot-tempered, but always motivated by a need to do rather than just think.
Their responses tend to be quick, to love, to anger, to opportunity. Mars fuels their courage and can sometimes tip into confrontation, but always in pursuit of truth or movement.
