Combine the highly independent nature of an Aquarius Sun with the competitive instincts of an Aries Moon and the result is a Sun/Moon pairing that will be as electrically charged as a dozen live wires, all sparking at once. Looking forward, moving fast, and preparing to go toe-to-toe with the greatest of the greats, this is the Sun/Moon couple most likely to live life by the motto of “Move bitch, get out of the way”to quote the philosopher and scholar Ludicras. To illustrate: Ronda “Rowdy” Rousey – the trash-talking professional cage fighter who is considered the heir apparent to Gina Carano as “the face of women’s mixed martial arts,” is an Aquarius Sun and Aries Moon. (Chart) Rousey is the blonde seen banging her head against her opponent in the video below. “Move bitch, get out of the way” sure:

When Ludacris raps, “I’m going 100 on the highway, so if you’re going the speed limit, get out of my way,” he’s pretty close to this couple’s modus operandi, something the image above makes pretty clear. Given the disruptive nature of the Aquarius/Aries pairing, it’s probably no coincidence that Rousey has won all of her fights in under a minute. Using the comic’s first publication date (2/12/1940) as the character’s birth date, Superman himself is also an Aquarius Sun and Aries Moon. (Fountain) Rousey is no Superman, but she is confident enough in her fighting skills to challenge her opponents. a couple to fights.
Whether in business or sports, the textbook Aquarius/Aries individual excels at asymmetric warfare, the type of combat that small, fast-moving special forces teams or tech startups specialize in. To illustrate: Sports technology startup Under Armor is also an Aquarius Sun, Aries Moon. (See graph) Founded (born) on January 26, 1996 in Baltimore, the original company “We must protect this house!” The commercial nicely captures the emotional tone of the ass-kicking, odds-beating disruption dynamic duo that is Aquarius Sun with Aries Moon:
Astrologer Jefferson Anderson refers to the Aquarius Sun and Aries Moon individual as “the visionary and the innovator, the pacemaker who is always ten steps ahead of everyone else physically and intellectually.” (Fountain) Astrologers Suzi and Charles Harvey emphasize the fighting instincts and tendency toward rebellion of this combination:
You face problems with great enthusiasm. . . but it’s not easy to live up to it and few people want the obvious truth and a training partner all the time. A friendly egomaniac, he wants the best for everyone and is willing to fight for it. . . (Fountain)
“Address the problems”? “Comrades in combat”? “Ready to fight?” “Not afraid of the challenge”? Those are pretty accurate descriptions of both Ronda Rousey’s mentality and Under Armour’s corporate culture. According a recent ESPN article At the company, CEO Kevin Plank and COO Wayne Merino discuss business matters not within the comfortable confines of corporate offices, but during grueling 6:00 a.m. workouts supervised by a former Navy Seal.
Aquarius Sun and Aries Moon natives do not function well unless they have some type of overwhelming challenge to face. Under Armor CEO Kevin Plank, who founded the company when he was 23 as a University of Maryland football player, doesn’t say it explicitly, but it’s clear that the company’s daunting challenge is to usurp sportswear behemoth Nike:
The Harveys tell us that one of the two metaphorical images of the Aquarius Sun and Aries Moon is “Robin Hood and his band of merry men outwit the evil King John once again.” (Fountain) Replace Robin Hood with Kevin Plank and the evil King John with Nike founder Phil Knight, and the Harveys’ image is an excellent approximation of the company’s 15 years of business: “Kevin Plank and his band of microfiber-clad merry men outwit the evil Phil Knight once again.” It’s also a good approximation for Ronda Rousey and her group of trainers, as she seems poised to usurp the entire world of mixed martial arts.
You may have noticed that Under Armour, Superman and Ronda Rousey are known for showing up to work in their underwear. From an astrological perspective, I’m not sure there is a reason for this, but it is an interesting coincidence to note.
Dr. William Shockley, the inventor of the transistor and the main catalyst for the transformation of Silicon Valley into the world capital of disruptive technology, was also an Aquarius Sun and Aries Moon. (Fountain) That a legendary innovator is an Under Armor astrotwin makes sense when you take a look at some of the incredibly innovative technologies the company has pioneered:
While not as unstoppable as the Man of Steel or as fashion-conscious as Under Armour, Shockley had the kind of “outside” hobbies you’d expect from a person with the Sun in Aquarius (the sign of eccentricity) and the Moon in Aries (the sign of power). According to Wikipedia:
Shockley donated sperm to the Repository for Germinal Choice, a sperm bank founded by Robert Klark Graham in hopes of spreading humanity’s best genes. The bank, called the “Nobel Prize sperm bank” by the media, claimed to have three Nobel Prize-winning donors, although Shockley was the only one to publicly acknowledge his donation to the sperm bank. (Fountain)
in his book Sun signs Moon signs Astrologer Jefferson Anderson writes of this pairing: “A pioneering technologist always keeping an eye on the future… the Aquarius Sun and Aries Moon individual can usually be found in the front ranks of his chosen field.” (Fountain)
The saying that the native of Aquarius, the Sun and Moon in Aries, is “a pioneering technologist” applies even when the person has little or no knowledge. modern technology at your disposal. Actor Richard Dean Anderson, best known for playing Richard McGyvera character who could generate shock and awe with little more than paper clips and sticky note, he is also an Aquarius Sun and Aries Moon.
