Aries The Ram (March 21-April 19) is portrayed on this blank note card. With Mars as its strongest planetary influence, Aries represents the metal Iron and the element of Fire and is identified by his ram’s horn sigil. He is a symbol of regeneration and renewed solar energy that mark the spring season. Aries’ colors, which include shades of purple and red, reflect courage and passion and creativity. According to Abumasar, an Arab astronomer, the sun, moon and five planets (Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn) had to appear together in the sky for Creation to occur. I've added Neptune and Uranus to update his theory. I've also given my Aries a sorcerer’s staff with which to observe the planetary conjunction and navigate the wonders of nature.
