Finaly read the story and it exemplifies the strength and weakness of Aries...

Jason does anything to achieve his goals..but he never thinks long term.

Hence he is brave and pioneering in his ventures and able to lead a group of heroes by his initiative.

But he often times cannot figure out how to get from point A to point B without a direct route (which may be more dangerous and risky).

Hence...he is thwarted by his impulsiveness...he marries Medea not out of love but out of ambition, and hence his downfall is not thinking long term strategically and just going...
In the end he sits idle and alone reminiscing of the good old glory days fighting under the sun with his chums while a beam falls and kills him.

Perfect story for an Aries (hence everyone since we have it in our chart) to learn how not to alienate everyone and end up being alone for the sake of moving towards a goal.

Now I'm reading theseus for taurus....it's about grabbing the bull by the horns...amazing how these stories articulate the energies.

Thoughts?

Not exactly on topic...
Long ago when film projectors were commonplace, I showed the reels of the movie, Jason and the Argonauts, during a Recreation Bureau field house movie night as an administrative assistant to the Rec Dept head, and every time I hear about this movie it takes me back to post high school days.

Yes, the Aries urge to win, act courageously first and think later, set out to improve, be at the head and lead the way shines through in the character.
