Baughan’s historical astrology
Aries in Baughan’s astrology
Baughan associates Aries with the head and face and the colour white. These are parts of her account of the sign when rising at birth, rather than observations about everyone born in a calendar month. Her scheme assigns Aries as a house of Mars. The sign therefore participates both in a bodily correspondence and in the relation between the zodiac and the seven recognised planetary powers.
