The Zodiacal Sign Aries (The Ram)
Aries - the Ram
Element Fire
Quality Cardinal
Ruler - Mars and Pluto
March 21-April 20
Hail to the Chief! - The leader of the herd!
By skirmish, brawl and fighting undeterred
Bright shining Number ONE in zodiac’s zoo,
Make room for him, or else he will butt through!
This warlord’s ruler is the reddish Mars,
The Lord of conflict, scimitars and wars,
Ram is of spirit realm’s high descent,
August, - and fire is his ELEMENT.
The QUALITY of Ram cardinal,
(He’ll show you who’s the boss in fight and brawl!)
The thistle is his special flower, though
She must be meek and take a courteous bow.
Entrepreneur, courageous, scorning fear,
As freedom-loving ardent pioneer
His COLOR is a fire-engine’s red,
His sinews steely, muscles iron-clad.
Is energetic and adventurous,
Courageous RAM is ardent pioneer,
Enthusiastic but imperious,
Is confident with vision bright and clear
But selfish too and has quick temperament,
Foolhardy daredevil is Aries RAM,
Who will annoyance with loud bleating vent
To make it known,- “ the roundel’s boss I am.
Ram’s ENERGY is masculine - the YANG
With Macho super-hero’s charge and bang-
His STONE is uncut diamond, but Ram
Cares not for baubles, trinkets nor for gem.
In love with hunt and chase, Ram will not tire
To ardently pursue his prey, for fire
Drives him to pursuit and its passionate thrill,
Nor will his wild excitement flag until--
His prize is caught plus trophy, crown and crest,
Then chase is over -- and so his interest.
Ram does protect the Fertile Crescent , since
Assyrians were the first to call him “PRINCE”
Egypt’s god Amun’s Rams can be surveyed
At Thebes Temple splendidly arrayed
In “Aries Avenue” - hewn out of stone
The Rams are seated on a marble throne.
Victorious over foes and Thanatos
Rams were the pride of many Pharaohs.
The populace paid tribute every year
While all of Thebes rang in frenzied cheer
High pedigree, - a found of energy -
Says the Assyrian Astrology
RAM is the FIRST in the Roundel - this Sire
Exudes and spreads bright charismatic fire
Remember Thebes and the Pharaohs
And hail this chief,- the zodiacal BOSS!
Best wishes to all Rams!
