Aries: The First Grail, Margaret Keane (1962)
Aries has a reputation for being the fierce and competitive warrior of the zodiac, but this fire sign is so much more than that. Aries season launches the beginning of the astrological calendar, which means this zodiac sign carries the sadness, vulnerability and innocence of being the baby of the zodiac. That’s why Margaret Keane’s famous “Big Eyes” paintings capture the heart of what it means to be an Aries, because at the end of the day, Aries lives life as though it’s experiencing everything for the first time. Plus, the meaning of Aries is heavily intertwined with the right to one’s identity, and the fact that Margaret Keane’s husband forced her to release her paintings under his name amounts to a nightmare that would be uniquely terrifying for an Aries. The victory of proving that she was the real artist behind these paintings in a court of law is the most Aries type of triumph.
