Aries Season and Spring Equinox: How to Harness the Energy of New Beginnings

Welcome to the Astrological New Year! Aries Season kicks off on March 20th with the Spring Equinox, marking the start of a brand-new astrological cycle. It’s a time of fresh beginnings, bold actions, and stepping forward with courage and excitement. But this year’s Aries Season? Oh, it’s turning up the heat even more, thanks to Neptune’s entry into Aries for the first time in 165 years!

It’s the season of planting seeds and allowing them to bloom. You might find yourself feeling extra motivated, bursting with ideas, or simply ready to clear out the clutter—both physically and emotionally—to make space for all the new magic that’s waiting to unfold.

Why Aries Season & Spring Equinox Matter

The Spring Equinox marks a moment of perfect balance between day and night, a reminder to find equilibrium in our own lives. Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, is all about initiating action, courage, and passion. Its fiery, assertive energy reminds us to be fearless in the pursuit of our dreams.

Throughout history, cultures worldwide have honored this powerful turning point:

• Nowruz: The Persian New Year, celebrated on the Spring Equinox, focuses on renewal, hope, and preparing for a prosperous year ahead.

• Ostara: A pagan festival celebrating fertility, rebirth, and the blossoming of life, symbolized by eggs and flowers.

• Passover & Easter: These holidays often fall around this time, centering around themes of liberation, renewal, and resurrection.

Aries Season Energy: Creativity, Confidence & Action

As a Libra, Aries Season can feel tricky for me. All that fiery energy feels intense, but it also sparks creativity since it lights up my 5th house of fun, romance, and creativity. This is usually when I feel most inspired and ready to dive into my creative projects. But that also means I need a good to-do list to stay on track and not get swept away by every exciting new idea. Balance is key!

For others, this energy might show up differently depending on your Sun and Rising Signs, but one thing’s for sure: it’s a powerful time to take bold steps toward your dreams.

Neptune in Aries: Why This Aries Season Is Extra Special

For the first time in 165 years, Neptune will be moving into Aries on March 30th. This transit will last for the next 13 years, making this Aries Season especially significant. Neptune in Aries brings a wave of bold inspiration, imaginative action, and spiritual courage. It’s time to dream big, take risks, and embrace your unique creative power.
