1.52 RULING PLANET: THE MOON
The Moon has a weakening effect on other planets and is therefore generally unfavorable when it predominates, unless the individual can rise above it, which is often possible when his horoscope shows minor planetary influences of a strengthening sort.
In Aries, the Moon gives impatience to Mars, resulting in changeable, self-defeating action. The keen minds of this sign are often diverted into foolish channels.
1.51 RULING PLANET: THE SUN
The Sun has a strengthening and often beneficent influence on the planets governing each sign, often promising high achievement in fields to which the individual is most suited, but at the same time producing a great intensity which may lead to over-effort.
In Aries, the Sun, combined with Mars, develops the drive found in this sign, urging the individual to great achievements. It also intensifies his ideas of right and wrong, often resulting in a crusading spirit that goes beyond normal bounds and defeats its own interests.
