The Ram
March 21 – April 19

Aries, my fearless leader. My do-it-first, do-it-better, and do-it-faster friend. You are quick and dynamic, with a relentless sense of direction and purpose that leaves the rest of us feeling lost and complacent in comparison.

You have been in control, or at least have been seeking control, of every area of your life since you came out of the womb. All of the power that you acquired is well deserved, and world domination is never too far away.

However, 2019 wants you to remember how much you have yet to learn. As Saturn, the planet of restriction, moves through your career sector, you will be pushed to embrace more structure and responsibility than you have ever encountered before. It will be a lesson in containing your fire. A practice in tempering your impulses. You will be respectful. You will be intentional. And you will be thorough. Saturn is going to teach you to be thoughtful in your work, and learn to think before you act in every area of your day. And in return, he will reward you with more respect and honour than imaginable.

But this year also wants you to get outside of yourself to understand how many lessons and truths are out there for you to uncover. Jupiter, the planet of good fortune, is going to bless you with opportunities to travel far, far away from your daily routine and regular circle. New countries. New cultures. New belief systems. Jupiter is doing this to get you back in touch with the curious child that lies within you. The one who still wonders what clouds are made of and why the sky is that perfect blue.

So take Jupiter up on her offer. Get outside of yourself. Ask questions. Humble yourself with all of the answers you have yet to know. Find your next greatest teacher; whether that be a mentor, or nature herself. There is no destination too far, and no question too small. This year is about education through experience, and experience through expansion. So get to flying, Aries.
