The Ram – First sign

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and as with most beginnings, high energy and turbulence mark the characteristics of people born under this sign. They are on the look out for dynamic, fast-paced competition and action. As a fire sign and with the ruling planet of Mars, Aries is one of the most active and headstrong signs. It is in their nature to take action, even without thinking it though sufficiently which often results in natural bravery and fearlessness, although sometimes leads to impulsiveness and recklessness. I’ve portrayed Aries as a strong warrior-like woman with the ram’s horns. She has burnt tree branches for hair and burnt horns befitting her fiery nature. She has a tribal tattoo of the ram on her forehead and the astrological sign depicted as a necklace at her throat. Primal and fearless, she holds a skull in her hands and looks a formidable warrior.
