PHASE 1 (ARIES 1°): A WOMAN JUST RISEN FROM THE SEA. A SEAL IS EMBRACING HER.
KEYNOTE: Emergence of new forms and of the potentiality of consciousness

Straight Woo

This first degree of the zodiac in the sign of the babe, marks the initial spark of creation (Spring Equinox), the idea, the inspiration, the tingle in one’s spine upon the first note of a masterpiece. Initiation. Initiative. Impulse.

This degree, indeed the entire sign of Aries speaks to the intention we set to bring spirit (Pisces) into matter (Capricorn). Here the native is likely seeking to transcend emotionalism, while maintaining connectedness. This also implies self-awareness in the presence of an ‘other’. Giving birth to oneself from a place of self-consciousness results in true self acceptance. It is only from this place that we can truly accept anyone outside ourselves.

Beautiful Beginning
(a.k.a. 1DegreeAries)
by Kori Woo

Light bounces off her,
blinding one to all but the glisten
off skin
darker than ocean floor,
shining like fresh blown dragonglass.
She emerges like horizon,
her womb
the pull between Earth
& Sun.
Omnimpotent.
Impossible to touch.
