Your Spring Equinox Guide
With this week’s spring equinox, the season of renewal begins—and marks the first day of the astrological calendar that resets with Aries. Astrologer Daniela Karpenos of The Cosmic Latte shares her overview below (read both your sun and rising signs).
“Ready to bloom? Aries season kicks off with the spring equinox, which represents a balance of light and dark. It's a symbol of new beginnings, growth, and renewal. Astrologically, it’s a powerful time for setting intentions and aligning with fresh energy, as it ushers in a season of blooming after the slower, more cosmically uneventful last few months.
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, embodying raw energy, enthusiasm, and courage. It's like the spark of a match lighting up a new path, asking you to shed any lingering doubts or hesitations. This vitality marks the start of a new astrological year, inviting you to embrace the trailblazing spirit of Aries.
The energy of Aries is all about taking action, setting bold intentions, and charging forward without looking back. It's the perfect time to honor your personal power and dive headfirst into projects, goals, or changes you’ve been putting off. Live boldly. Be brave enough to go after what you want."
