Born at this point in Aries season
This person was born early in Aries, while the season is still new and the fire has only just caught. Starting things comes easily, and the first push toward something new can feel bigger than the work that follows. The gap between a bold beginning and a patient middle is a familiar place to stand. Coming back to a project once the first spark has faded is the ongoing work this person keeps choosing, one ordinary afternoon at a time.
