With Explanations of All Astrological and Rayological Elements

Sun in Sign

1.  Major Personality Focus:

The personality demonstrates through driving action focussed within any one, two or all three personality vehicles.

2.  The “potency of the Sun of Probability”:

When Aries is the Sun-sign the probability is that the individual concerned will be energetic, assertive and focussed upon the immediate fulfillment of his desires and intentions. There will be a factor of ‘irresistibility’ in his manner of wielding energy. His immoderate use of personality force may blind him to the impacts his expression of such force is having upon others and the environment.

3.  The Factor of Personality Integration:

The personality will be integrated forcefully and under the command of the personal will. Personality integration is directed from the head, and insufficient time and space may be allowed for a true and organic integration to occur.

4.  Responsiveness and Lack of Responsiveness to the Soul:

a.       The personality will fail to respond to the soul because of its excessively “head-strong” attitudes and its lack of reflection before taking action prompted by desire.

b.       The personality will successfully respond to the soul through an eagerness to carry out all that is ideal and representative of a higher life. The inherent courage conferred by the Aries Sun-sign will make such an individual refuse to hesitate in carrying out soul-behests, and, thus, spiritual accomplishment may be accelerated.

5.   Ego and Ahamkara:

Those with Sun in Aries may be blind to self and others. They are so carried away by their own ‘energetic intensity’ or by the ‘intensity of the act’ in which they may be engaged, that they do not reflect upon the value of other alternatives to the manner and mode of their expression. Caught up this personal intensity, a mode of thought chiefly centered on the little self (its desires, impulses and apparent needs) is not uncommon. Such people are ‘naively selfish’ rather than premeditatively so. Because they cannot easily stand back from the little self, they cannot escape the overwhelming energy streams which pour through it under the Aries influence. Only by the loyal service of something greater does there develop sufficient perspective to free themselves from the lower ego and its naïve self-importance.

6.    The “Secret of the Personality Ray”:

It cannot be said that individuals having an Aries Sun-sign will necessary have sixth or fourth ray personalities (because the orthodox and esoteric rulers of Aries, Mars and Mercury, transmit the sixth and fourth rays respectively). Nor can it be said that people with an Aries Sun-sign will necessarily have ray one or ray seven personalities because the constellation Aries transmits the first and seventh rays. Among the majority of Aries people, these rays may be probabilities, but not certainties.
