The Four Seasons of Aries

[Nancy Priddy - First season]
Aries begins with an aggressive need to be
He's impatient, volatile, and anxious to get started
He plunges into life with small regard for consequences
He puts the world on its toes immediately
For his mind and his hands are busy trying to touch everything at once
The young ram has to be protected from himself
Or he'll break himself in two trying to run through walls
He moves like a wild thing
And like most wild things, needs a special kind of handling
That channels the energy
Without breaking the spirit
The young Aries runs a high fever that erupts and breaks just as suddenly
It is sometimes called "temper". It is often forgotten in the next breath
Praise is never wasted on the young ram
He thrives on praise, and is motivated by challenge
He's always in a hurry to get out on the field of battle
For he knows, that is where he belongs

[John Erwin - Second season]
In his second season, Aries goes looking for the perfect adversary
He can use up school very quickly, for he learns so fast the sense of things
And details tend to bore him
So, he races off to the war
Any war. Aries doesn't care
And he'll take on too many opponents at the same time
Scatter his shots, waste many of them
Burn up more juice than he has to
Picking up scars and learning the hard way
But he does learn
And well
He'll make many friends
Know many loves
And the better for it

[Michael Bell - Third season]
In the third season
The ram who has truly learned his lessons
Is ready to commit himself body and soul
To something, and to someone
He finds out that the world may be best seen through one window, after all
And that there is satisfaction in going all the way with something
And so he brings all his fire, initiative, enterprise, and energy
To one single challenge
And you can bet on him not to lose
Rams are not losers

[Nancy Priddy - Fourth season]
In his last season the Aries native has felt the edge soften
And the need to take on all [?] is tempered with the satisfaction
Of having beaten the best adversaries that life can offer
He is much like the retired champion, who can enjoy his reputation without taking any more punches
For Aries, man and woman alike
Becoming is one long battle
Which they win in ways that less courageous people can only dream about
