The Season of the Ram (Aries Season)

The Sun is now in Aries; the archetype of the pioneer, daredevil, and warrior. Aries season marks the start of the astrological new year and spring equinox.

Ruled by Mars, the planet of war, which represents our courage, drive, and assertiveness, this season invites us to take up space, go after what we want with boldness, and claim it.

Aries is our primal knowing that we have the right to exist, that we can overcome any obstacle, and that we have the power to shape our life. Aries’ evolutionary goal is to claim the  right use of assertiveness. It is by choosing to combat fear and taking the right risks that Aries develops courage.

Aries is associated with the 1st house (of personal identity, autonomy, self-actualization) and is a cardinal sign which means that for the sign of the ram, having a sharp sense of one’s identity and direction in life is fuel for the warrior. When Aries knows what it desires to attain, it goes after it with boldness, fierceness, and the knowing that it deserves to rightfully hold what it desires.

Aries season serves as a reminder that we have the ability to be brave, bold, and courageous. All it takes is intentionality, determination, and action to bring our desires and creations to life.

Aries (season) is here to teach us that courage is earned. The quote “feel the fear and do it anyway” — that’s Aries. Aries (season) gifts us the wisdom that we are fully capable of facing our fears and overcoming our doubts. It’s through intentionally challenging ourselves by taking the right risks and adventures that we stoke the inner flame that is courage. This is where growth and transformation lie.

The Season of the Fishes (Pisces Season)

The Sun is now in Pisces; the archetype of the mystic, poet, and dreamer.

Co-ruled by Neptune (modern ruler), the planet of mysticism, and Jupiter (traditional ruler), the planet of optimism, this season calls us to connect with our inner mystic, imagination, and creativity.

Pisces’ evolutionary goal is to separate their consciousness from their personality, to identify with their larger self. Through relaxing in solitude, meditating, creating or imagining, the sign of the dreamer connects with its boundless self. It is through these states, that Pisces transcends itself and experiences consciousness itself.

Pisces is associated with the 12th house (of spirituality, solitude, self-transcendence) and is a mutable sign which means that for the sign of mystic, exploring the ocean of consciousness is the pathway to identifying with the depths of one’s soul, a pathway that is endless. And it is also in this spaciousness that it can find compassion and forgiveness, and release that which it no longer chooses to carry on its journey.

Pisces (season) is here to teach us that though life is filled with many complexities, we have the capacity to find peace amidst the noise of the world.Pisces reminds us that there’s a sanctuary within us that we can access if choose. A place where our inner wisdom, inspiration, and creativity can arise and flow into our consciousness if we let it. And it is in this same place, that we can surrender to the magic and mystery that dwells in this vastness and allow it to move through us.

The Season of the Sea-Goat (Capricorn Season)

The Sun is now in Capricorn; the archetype of the strategist, elder, and hermit.

Ruled by Saturn, the planet of self-discipline and solitude, this is a time to shift our focus away from the external, and instead focus on our intentions and what we value. It’s a time to create solitude and remain in integrity with oneself regardless of where the world is vying for your attention.

Capricorn’s evolutionary goal is to merge their true nature with their public identity. With its patience, resourcefulness, and self-discipline, Capricorn has the capacity to climb the highest mountain and swim the widest ocean as symbolized by the sea-goat.

Capricorn is associated with the tenth house (of career, mission, public role) and is a cardinal sign which means that for the sign of the strategist finding a mountain/mission that is worthy of their time, effort, and commitment — one where you can share your gifts with your community — is integral to its vitality.

But what mission is worthy of you? The heart knows the answer. And to hear its message, we must spend some time in solitude — a strategy that Capricorn knows well.

Capricorn (season) is here to teach us that in order to reach the top of the mountain, we must stay true to ourselves, our values, and funnel our energy into a cause or mission that we deem worthy of our commitment (time and energy). Capricorn teaches us that there are times when we must say no to external temptations in order to focus on what’s truly important to us, and that focus and determination are key ingredients in making our vision a reality. All of this packaged with some self-care (solitude and taking restorative breaks) will support us in the process of getting there.

The Season of the Archer (Sagittarius Season)

The Sun enters the sign of the adventurer, student, and philosopher.

Ruled by Jupiter, the planet of faith and optimism, this is a time to tap into our inner compass and explore what we find valuable and meaningful in life as symbolized by the archer.

Sagittarius’ evolutionary goal is to develop faith and search for meaning in life. It is through exploring new and unfamiliar environments, absorbing different points of views, and expanding our awareness of life that we arrive at our own understanding of what makes life purposeful and meaningful to us.

Sagittarius is associated with the ninth house of long journeys (higher education, belief systems, travel) and is a mutable sign which means that for the sign of the adventurer there is no final destination to life, but more so an endless quest for meaning; to live life as an adventure is Sagittarius’ strategy.

Sagittarius (season) is here to teach us that in order to remain open to life and all of its experiences we must trust life. Sagittarius is here to pack the experience of several lifetimes into one life and doing so requires stretching our horizons by feeding our desire to explore (the adventurer), soaking up new information (the student), and arrive at our own truth (the philosopher).

Sagittarius (season) reminds us that when life begins to feel too predictable, breaking up our routine(s) is the anecdote. It is by taking leaps of faith, believing in your full potential, and having a willingness to let life surprise you is how our faith in life can be restored.
