Piercing through the crust of the soil which the melting of snow softened, the sprouting seed forces its life into the light of the sun. The fervent upreaching of spring brings forth the wonder of germination. The Day-force now balances in intensity the waning Night-force.
♈️
Because in Aries the Day-force and the Night-force balance one another, the Aries person is always in a state of unstable equilibrium, pulled intensely by opposite; thus restless. They are constantly seeking to fulfill themself as personality; but that goal is ever elusive—always beyond, beyond. And so they keep acting, desiring, emoting, and creating.
♈️
In Aries, the “pulsing of life”—the creative Breath—is felt. It passes through. It surges forth—and is gone. Aries power is the power of the lightning which transcends from above, which strikes out of the darkness of the Collective Unconscious. It is the power of revelation; power of Destiny released, which burns and fecundates. Such a power, from whatever level it operates in fiery downflows, gives to the action of an Aries person a peculiar pioneering, impersonal, perhaps cosmic and fateful strength. Indeed, in and through the noblest expressions of Aries power it is not an individual person who is at work, but humanity—the human being.
♈️
Thus, Aries: its strength, its burden of destiny. The song of Aries is a song of solar “exaltation” because in and through it the Sun—“exalted in Aries—feels for the first time that victory has been won. This victory over the Night is celebrated in Aries. It is the point of “ecstasy” of solar force. Rejoice and enjoy.
