The Tower and Seven of Wands cards from the “Tarot of Durer” by Lo Scarabeo.
As the first sign in the zodiac, Aries (March 21 – April 19) almost always marks the beginning of something energetic and turbulent. Aries people are continuously looking for dynamic, speed, and competition. They are always first in everything – from work to social gatherings. Thanks to its ruling planet Mars (associated with the Tower in the tarot deck), Aries is one of the most active zodiac signs. People born under the Aries sign, are meant to emphasize the search for answers to personal and metaphysical questions.
Aries is a fire sign. This means that it is in their nature to take action, sometimes before they think about it well. Their fiery ruler affects their excellent organizational skills, so you’ll rarely meet an Aries who doesn’t like to finish more things at once, often even before the lunch break! The challenges are increased when they are impatient, aggressive and vent anger on others.
The tarot Tower card portends sudden, unexpected change (often perceived as disaster but that interpretation of events is up to the one experiencing the sudden, unexpected change). Aries is also associated with the suit of Wands which is related to enterprise, ambition, enthusiasm, challenge and competition.
With these cards in mind, consider your spiritual journey and where you might need courage, change, or renewal in your life. Have you used your enterprise and daring to become a mature ruler of your own life? Have you acted in too arrogant a manner and called down the wrath of the gods upon yourself? What aspects of your life require “spring cleaning” at this time?
