The Sun enters Aries today, marking the time of the Spring equinox and the start of the astrological New Year, at 12:30 AM EDT.

The Sun will transit Aries until April 19th. In Aries, the Sun is enthusiastic and spontaneous. We are motivated by the desire to conquer. We are more impulsive, and have the urge to initiate.

Aries is a sign that bounces back quickly--there is little shame with Aries. It is brave and pioneering, and somewhat innocent. We are direct and rather uncomplicated in our needs, but we can also be short-sighted and lack the desire to plan ahead.

While this is fiery energy, we are also influenced by a conjunction of Venus and Neptune in Pisces, which is a gentle, subtle, and imaginative influence. We can experience heightened sensitivity to, and awareness of, beauty and spirituality, and we might feel renewed on creative levels.

We are easily influenced, seducible and seductive, and given to strong powers of imagination. We are more attuned to the world of beauty and romance today. Gentleness with others is the best way to harness this energy.

A "magical" time on a romantic and social level, but it could also be a confusing or illusory influence as well. Psychic openness and compassion are themes in our interactions now.

The Moon continues its transit of Leo until 1:40 PM EDT, when it enters Virgo.
