What Is Aries?
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, a cardinal fire sign ruled by Mars and symbolized by the ram. In the tropical system the Sun is in Aries from about March 21 to April 20. Here are the basics, with a correction to the dates this page used before.
This is an astrology explainer, not a brand guide; it is kept on the site as a style-and-culture reference.
The basics
Wikipedia gives the symbol as the Ram (the Greek Kriós and the Latin Ariēs both mean “ram”), the element as fire, the modality as cardinal and the ruling planet as Mars.
Dates
Under the tropical system, the Sun enters Aries at the March equinox, usually around March 21, and the sign runs to about April 20. The article’s infobox lists March 20 to April 20 for 2026. The earlier version of this page said March 21 to April 19, which I corrected. The equinox moves by about six hours a year until a leap year resets it, so the exact day varies. The article describes only the tropical system.
Style and personality
Claims about Aries personality and fashion are astrology lore, not evidence, and I make none.
