March 30 falls comfortably in the heart of Aries season, which officially runs from March 21 to April 19 (sometimes shifting by a day depending on the year and exact time of the equinox, but never enough to push March 30 out of Aries territory).
So yes — March 30 = Aries. Full stop.
But let’s go deeper. Being born on zodiac sign March 30 doesn’t just make you “an Aries.” It places you in the second decan (roughly March 31–April 9) of Aries, which adds fascinating layers to the classic Aries personality.
Aries at Its Core: The Cardinal Fire Sign
- Element: Fire
- Modality: Cardinal (the initiator)
- Ruling Planet: Mars (traditional) + Pluto (modern co-ruler)
- Symbol: The Ram
- Body Part: Head, face, brain, adrenal glands
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac — the spark, the Big Bang, the “I AM.” Where Pisces dissolves into oneness, Aries shouts, “Here I am, world — watch me charge!”
Why March 30 Aries Feels Different: The Leo/Sun Decan
The zodiac is divided into three 10-day segments called decans. Each decan has a sub-ruler that flavors the sign.
- 1st decan Aries (March 21–30): Pure Mars-ruled Aries — raw, impulsive, warrior energy
- 2nd decan Aries (March 31–April 9): Sun-ruled (Leo sub-influence) ← This is where March 30 sits on most years
- 3rd decan Aries (April 10–19): Jupiter-ruled (Sagittarius sub-influence)
People born right around March 30–April 1 often straddle the line between the first and second decan depending on the exact year and time, but the vast majority of March 30 babies fall into the Sun/Leo decan.
What does that mean in real life?
| Classic Aries (Mars decan) | March 30 Aries (Sun/Leo decan) |
| Acts first, thinks later | Still impulsive, but wants applause for it |
| Competitive to win | Competitive to shine and be admired |
| Temper flares fast and fades fast | Temper is dramatic — thinks in spotlights |
| Solo warrior vibe | Natural performer, leader of the pack |
| “I’ll prove you wrong” | “Watch me prove I’m the best” |
In short: If early Aries (March 21–29) are the soldiers storming the castle, late-March/early-April Aries are the charismatic generals who make sure everyone sees them plant the flag.
