Aries

Ariens are active, brave and frank. They possess an abundence of energy which renders them aggressive in all sorts of enterprises. Constantly on the go they are the pioneering go-getters of the Zodiac. It is the present challenge that counts not what happened yesterday or what the future may bring. They’re enthusiasm is contagious. While their outspokeness is sometimes hard to take it is ultimately accepted by friends and family who recognise that such frankness stems from the Rams honest beliefs. Aries limitless optimism cannot be compared with any other signs. The highly competitive and ambitious Rams are admired for their tremendous drive to prove themselves by attacking difficult projects. They seem to be able to handle almost anything…

Upon examining the traditional death of the Middle Ages, Aries gave it the term the ‘Tame Death’. This is the first of Aries’ five…

have chosen the constellation Aries. Aries looks like a ram in the night sky. The reason that I have chosen it is because it is my Zodiac constellation. It it the 39th largest constellation out of the recognized 88, making it a mid sized constellation. The Chinese see it as twin inspectors, and in the Marshall islands they see it as a porpoise, not a ram.

Aries Woman and Taurus Man The mixture of an impulsive Aries woman and a sensible Taurus man may blossom into a lifelong partnership. A feminine Aries will bring excitement into the steady life of the male Taurus, and his imperturbable commitment will bring his partner to his side. Her partner will develop the secure scaffolding of the relationship, while she creates an ever rising structure. Relationships may fail because an impatient Aries may become unsatisfied with her humble partner, or a…

While this article would be much too lengthy for me to cover each of them in detail, suffice it to say, they all feel a disconnect between their actions and their self-image. Jon Connington is sick of pretending to be someone else. Barristan grows weary of watching kings and queens and wants to be bold again. Quentyn would rather be back in Dorne doing almost anything…

“Finally he’s sealed” thought Ares. Thanatos, the Ruler of Death, was sealed into a jar after batting Ares.

Five thousands years had past and a young boy was on his way to a tree that was near his house. Now that young boy was Aries who would open the jar later on in the story but I have to tell u…

Philippe Aries suggested that ‘childhood’ as we know it, has only recently appeared through social construction. I believe that children didn’t truly “exist” in the past. Up to recent years, children had to go to work at a young age and were expected to take on the role of a “mini-adult” by either working or taking care of a household, this was especially the case in the peasant and middle classes. Aries statement is valid in the sense of children having to become “young adults” as he’s stated…
