Astrology Zodiac

Aries was a constellation visible from Earth and a sign of the Zodiac.

Aries had a confusing past, as the Romans believed the "ram" to be a manifestation of the Egyptian god Ammon, while the Ancient Greeks thought it represented the golden ram that lent its fleece to legend. Kasterborus believed it simply ascended to the Firmament. (PROSE: Introduction and links ^[+]Loading...["Introduction and links (short story)"])
