Aries:
Patterns and Behaviors
|
|
|
by Diana Stone |

Dateline April 2004. This article is the first in a series that will include a monthly column describing some of the patterns and behaviors of each of the signs of the zodiac. The articles are excerpts from a book I am writing, A Communication Model for Astrologers. The material focuses on interpretations that may involve the rising sign, the Moon sign or other placements beyond the Sun sign. Whether or not you are familiar with your horoscope, you may recognize the patterns in your life or of those around you. I had to do Aries first or get into big trouble with the Rams.
The Sun typically makes its annual trip through the sign of Aries from about March 21 to April 20. The Spring Equinox marks the beginning of the zodiacal signs. Aries is number one and that symbolism carries through to the personality traits of our Aries brothers and sisters. If you were not born with your Sun in Aries you may think you exhibit none of the characteristics of the sign. You may be very wrong if your Moon is in Aries, for example, or with other planetary placements strategically placed in your chart. Read on and see if this describes anybody YOU know.
Aries is built for speed. Regardless of whether they have more than their share of speeding tickets (see that red car go), they want things to go fast. They are the movers and shakers of the zodiac. They look for fast results, think fast on their feet and are not long on patience. If it doesn't go right, smash the damn thing. They do not suffer the methodical plodders of the world gladly.
Aries is a very competitive sign. They love to win and be number one. However, they are chivalrous. They do not take pleasure or feel comfortable competing against anyone who is not on a level playing field with them. For the weaker or handicapped, they turn into knights (knightesses?) and will ride to their aid on a white steed. The guy who chases the purse-snatcher with no thought of his safety? That's the Ram. They would have loved it in Camelot.
Aries are loners and this is definitely not a sign associated with intimacy. You had better give your Aries some space or the only thing left will be the foot prints up the front of you and down your back as they head for the door and the call of the wild. Do not try to tell them what they should do! They are restless and like change. In fact, their answer to problems is sometimes to just make a change…a new job, a new city, a new wife. This outer directed focus does not fly too well when it is an emotional issue.
The Aries penchant for independence and freedom does not play out so well if there are certain childhood experiences, which often come when the rising sign is Aries. I have found that there can be a separation from the mother, or the child is left alone or ignored much of the time. There may be a father that wants a "tough" kid and can be pretty rough. The subconscious decision is, "I must be self-reliant or I may not be safe." If they then seek relationships, they may not relate closely. If the Aries patterns are heavily challenged in the chart, there may be anger and violence problems, usually toward them. The next question is whether the kid then begins to act out the modeled behaviors or not.
I recently spoke with an Aries client. He was leaving his fourth marriage. He threw his wife out because she is an alcoholic and had an affair. He tried to help her overcome her addiction but Aries does not stick around forever. He said he spends six months of the year at his remote cabin in the far north. He has trucks, cars and three boats. He owns a lot of property and does well financially. But he chafes that it keeps him tied down. He says he likes to keep on the move. I thought to myself, "Thanks for writing my Aries column for me."

Diana Stone began astrological studies in the 1960s under the tutelage of Charles Luntz, author of Vocational Guidance by Astrology.
In 1973, she established a private practice in Portland, OR. She serves a clientele that includes an extensive network of telephone clients.
Her book on the U.S. horoscope was published in 1976. In the early 90s she contributed to three anthologies published by Llewellyn Publishers and edited by Noel Tyl.
Diana has lectured extensively and is a popular keynote speaker. She delivered the keynote address at the United Astrology Conference in Orlando in July 2002.
She has been a student for over 30 years of Huna shamanism, the system practiced by ancient Polynesian kahuna. Huna Research, Inc. certified her as a teacher of the ancient lore.
Diana serves an extensive international clientele as a shaman specializing in soul retrieval. She and her brother formed a publishing company, Crystal Triangle Publishing, and the book they co-authored, The Lightbody Activation Manual, will be released in February 2003. Diana now resides in Vancouver, WA.
