Archetypal Themes of Aries

Exploring Persephone's myth of ascent, Jason's Golden Fleece, the astrological themes of Aries, and associated tarot connections to the springtime ram

Today I got together with

to discuss all things springtime and Aries season. We had a lovely time chatting about:

  • The symbolism of Aries, its connection to its ruling planet Mars, and Mars’s own mythic story

  • The role of Mars in the natal chart and our personal Mars placements (turns out we have opposite Mars! I’m a Libra Mars, Alyssa is an Aries Mars!!)

  • Exploring the story of the golden fleece, a typical tale we tell to explain Aries as a symbol of sovereignty

  • The differences between Persephone and Jason as springtime myth characters, Persephone seeming to integrate her shadow and Jason… not so much

  • Tarot correspondences-why is The Emperor associated with Aries? And walking through the 2, 3, and 4 of Wands which are associated with Aries as well.

For even more springtime exploration, be sure to register for Alyssa’s workshop “Persephone’s Ascent & Springtime Renewal” which is this weekend!
