Well‚ howdy there! Let’s gab a bit about this here “Spring Zodiac Symbol” thingy they got in the NYT， that New York Times newspaper｡ Don’t rightly know what all them fancy words mean‚ but I reckon I can piece it together for ya‚ just like I piece together a quilt｡
So， they keep talkin’ ’bout this “Spring Zodiac Symbol。” Sounds like somethin’ them city folk do‚ like them crosswords。 They was lookin’ for it in January‚ they say｡ Heck， spring’s later than that‚ ain’t it? Anyways‚ they say this symbol got five letters。 Five letters! Could be anything‚ really。 Like “ARIES‚” maybe｡ I heard tell that’s one of them star signs， and it comes in the spring｡
Now‚ this “Aries” thing， it’s supposed to be a ram｡ You know， a sheep with them big ol’ curly horns。 Guess that’s their symbol｡ And what’s it mean? Well‚ they say it means all sorts of things｡ Rebirth， they say。 Like when the flowers pop up after a long winter｡ And growth， like them corn stalks in my field｡ They also say it means triumph of life over death｡ Sounds mighty important‚ don’t it? Like when my old Bessie cow had that calf last spring‚ near ’bout died she did‚ but that little calf‚ he pulled through｡ That’s life over death‚ I reckon。
They also talk about light over darkness and warmth over cold。 Well， that’s just plain sense， ain’t it? Spring’s when the days get longer‚ and the sun warms your bones after a chilly winter｡ Makes a body feel good‚ it does｡ And hope and joy? Yep， spring’s full of that。 Seeing them little lambs frolicking in the pasture‚ it just makes you smile。 And love? Well‚ spring’s when all the critters start pairing up‚ ain’t they? And fertility? That just means things growin’ and makin’ more of themselves。 Like my chickens layin’ eggs and them tomatoes I plant every year。
Seems like this “Aries” ram is a pretty big deal in them star signs。 They say it’s the start of the whole shebang， the beginning of the astrological year。 Whatever that means｡ I guess it’s like the first seed you plant in the spring‚ the one that starts the whole garden growin’｡
- Spring star signs， they call ’em｡ Born between March and June‚ they say。
- And this “Aries” is one of ’em｡
- Then there’s others‚ but they ain’t talkin’ ’bout them right now｡
Now‚ them folks at the NYT， they like them crosswords。 You know‚ them puzzles with the little boxes? They give you a clue‚ and you gotta figure out the word。 So， this “Spring Zodiac Symbol” was a clue。 And the answer was somethin’ with five letters。 Like I said‚ probably “ARIES。”
They even talk about Autumn‚ but that’s a whole ‘nother story for a different time。 They got their own signs then‚ like Libra and Scorpio。 Don’t know much about them‚ but I heard tell Scorpio is a scorpion‚ and that ain’t no spring critter‚ that’s for sure。 Libras‚ they got scales‚ like for weighin’ things｡ Guess that makes sense for harvest time｡
So， there you have it｡ That’s all I know ‘bout this here “Spring Zodiac Symbol” in the NYT｡ It’s a ram‚ it means a whole bunch of things about new beginnings and life‚ and it’s the answer to one of them crossword puzzles｡ Don’t make it too complicated‚ city folk。 It’s just about life startin’ all over again‚ plain and simple｡
