Pure Ignition
The Aries Sun plays like the snap count is a suggestion. He goes first, goes hard, and figures out the rest at full speed. Underneath it all is an Aries Moon. Anger is useful fuel here, and the next snap is always the fix. His Sun and Moon line up. Single-minded, focused, and very clear about who he is. Both lights burn the same color. When he's right, he's unstoppable. When he's wrong, he's wrong at full speed.
- The Horse runs hot and runs free, and he's hard to slow down once he gets going. The Yang Water layer adds drive that keeps moving around obstacles.
- Life path 11 means instinct turned up. He senses the play and lifts the people around him.
- Between the lines: explosive and aggressive. He wants the contact and the big play.

The 2026 season
Transiting Uranus electrifies his Mars. When he moves, nobody sees it coming. It comes into range on Jan 2 and runs through Mar 16, close but never exact this season.
- Jupiter square natal MarsNov 21 to Jan 3
- Uranus conjunction natal MarsJan 2 to Mar 16
Transits use a 3° orb (5° for returns). Listed ones are in range at some point during the regular season; exact dates are within the season.
