Date Posted: 22:09:00 03/20/09 Fri In reply to: 's message, "** All about Aries + Starcast & Astrolesson" on 10:59:36 03/20/09 Fri Thanks Lil Irish for the wonderful astrology updates. I always look forward to the astrology updates and even more so now that the little one is here, because I really don't have much time to pick up a book anymore. I'm sure you know how I feel. Babies are alot of work for me its a 14 hour work day and then its time for bed because I'm pooped out. Forget naps because the lil one will only nap for a half hour, I wish I had her energy...LOL She is alot of fun! Hope all is going well. Hope Billy is doing great. Talk to you soon. ~Autumn >** All about Aries > >Aries was named after the Greek god of war, and its >patron planet is Mars, his Roman counterpart. >Astrologically speaking, the Red Planet has long been >associated with 'red' qualities -- like assertiveness, >aggression and passion.

For example, right now Mars is >transiting through Aquarius, which means collectively >we are advancing through Aquarian principles -- >through teamwork, friends, groups and social >opportunities. If you have this placement in your >birth chart, these Aquarian themes are a prime >motivator for you throughout your life. For the rest >of us, it is only for a short while. Let's look at >another example. If Mars is placed in Cancer in your >birth chart, you are emotionally driven. It is >important to you to feel the emotional rightness about >what ever you go after. And you need to feel >comfortable! Cancer is a very security-conscious sign, >and just like Cancer's animal symbol, the crab moves >sideways. If you have this natal placement, you are >likely to 'move sideways' or around a plan until you >feel ready to act and to get a plan in motion. No >matter where Mars was when you were born, when you >know your Mars sign, it helps you to strategize and to >make good decisions about how you go after your goals, >be it a job or a relationship. To make the most of >your Mars sign and to increase your chances of getting >what you want, review the most productive qualities of >your Mars sign and then utilize those attributes. >Information is power!
