Aries Zodiac Symbol

The Aries zodiac sign is the ram. This symbol represents confidence, strength, boldness, and a fiery personality. The ram is also the first astrological symbol in the zodiac. It is considered to be a tropical zodiac. Tropical signs align with the spring equinox.

In Greek mythology, the story is of Phrixus, son of King Athamas. Phrixus and his sister Helle were hated by their stepmother who was scheming to get rid of them. She burnt up all the crop seeds so no crops would grow. When farmers became desperate, they sought advice from the oracle. The stepmother bribed the farmers to say that they needed to sacrifice Phrixus and Helle for their crop fortune to change. When the children's mother heard what was happening, she sent a golden ram to save her children. When they escaped, Helle lost her balance and fell off the ram to her demise. Phrixus eventually reached safety and was accepted by King Aeetes. Phrixus sacrificed the golden ram as an act of gratefulness to Zeus who put the ram constellation in the sky.

The fire sign can be associated with action and power, which are characteristics that come to an Aries naturally.
