This sign refers to people born :

1. in the sign Aries as Ascendant or

2. in the Nakshatras Ashwini and Bharani of the first quarter of Karthikai or

3. between 14th APRIL and 13th MAY.

Aries – Mesha is the first or head sign of the Zodiac. It commences at the vernal
equinox and extends upto exactly 30 degrees. (Suo’ during its course from South 
to North crosses the celestial equator and enters into the Northern Hemisphere. 
This intersecting point is called the vernal equinox.) According to the Nirayana
system, the vernal equinox or the beginning of Mesba (i.e. first point of the Zodiac)
is considered to be ever constant and is said to coincide with the fixed star Aswini,
zero degree; and the stars Aswini, Bharani and the first quarter of Karthikai always
occupy Mesha or Aries. In the Sayana system, however, the retrograde motion of the
Zodiac (at the rate of approximately 50 seconds per year) is taken into consideration
and so nowadays Sayana Aries commences at around the 7th degree of the Pisces-Meena.
The sun crosses this first point of Sayana Aries (Nirayana Pisces, Meena 7 degrees)
which bus gone by retrograde motion by ncarly 23 degrees, on 21st March every year.
After 71 years, the sun will cross this point on the 20th March; in 142 years on
the 19th March; in 213 years on the 18th March and so on. At that time when according
to both S Sayana and Nirayana systems, the initial point of commencement of the 
Zodiac coincided, the sun reached the vernal equinox on 14th April. After about 
21,000 years also, the sun will reach the vernal equinox on 14th April. As Hindus
follow the Nirayana System and I personally advocate the stellar theory, all the
delineations given below refer only to the Nirayana System. Hence for people porn
either in Aries as Ascendant or Moon or Sun in Aries in Aswini or Bharani or Karthikai
first pada, the following characterstics will be applicable : 1.e., (a) Aries Ascendant(
lagna), or (b) people born in Aswini Nakshatra or in Bharani Nakshatra or in Kar-
thikai Nakshtra first (c) people born between 4th April and 13th May any year..

and sterile. It is a mova- ble or a cardinal sign. It is said to be masculine or
positive and is of short ascension. Aries is generally symbolised by a Ram, being
in nature rash, combative, lascivious, springy and hardy. It is called an Oriental

Gold on the east. Aries represents head and face in the human body, It is ruled

to earn much and spend likewise. They may lose money through impulsive purchases
and rash investments. They have no mind to save but are always extravagant and careless.
They always think only of today and never of tomorrow. Evil planets in Aries show
that they will start any enterprise in a (lash which will end in a crash. They never
balance their budgets. On a later date, they will realise that such extravagant 
and rash action is not helpful. The best remedy for them is to think before they
act. They will dole out all advice to others in the matter of spending and saving,
but will not follow it themselves. Romance and Marriage: Arians are extremely frank
and enthusiastic even in love. Their good nature and charm attract the opposite 
sex. They do not dream but take practical steps. They want freedom, adventure in
love and everlasting affection which is somewhat difficult. If the dominant nature

rash and emotional. They should avoid roving eyes on others but stick on to the 
old lover who would keep them delighted.

she values more highly than herself and her family. Jealousy and pride are her outstanding
weaknesses. She will always expect her husband to attend on her, speak high of her

all social gatherings. She will prove to be a good host. She will love only such
a man whom she can admire. She will prove to be a good wife throughout life if she
is allowed to keep a dominant hold over the family affairs. If perchance an Aries
lady marries a simple man, she will overpower and subdue bim in all activities. 
For Aries ladies, strong-willed, masculine men will suit best. Since these ladies
will be a little aggressive, it is for the husbands to be patient and tactful in
dealing with them, so that harmony may prevail. These ladies despise anything mean
or under handed. They are inclined to be critical and occasionally overbearing.
