It’s Aries season! The Sun will be in this fire sign from March 20 to April 19. According to Astro Poets, Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, so people born under the sign of the ram are often associated with fresh starts and new beginnings. Aries are passionate with a deep sense of freedom. They are also extremely competitive and don’t like being bored.
Albuquerque can ignite an Aries’ passion and fire. Here’s an Aries’ guide to Albuquerque.

Celebrate the new beginnings of Aries season with a trip to the ABQ BioPark Botanic Garden. You’ll find fresh flowers blooming throughout spring as the weather gets warmer.
Bring the heat with a trip to Fire of Sandia to create your own candle. An Aries will love to choose their own candle vessel and scent.
Tap into the passion of an Aries by cheering on a local sports team. The Albuquerque Isotopes baseball season begins during Aries season on March 31. If soccer is more your speed, check out a New Mexico United game starting March 28.
Where to Eat
For a delicious, fire-cooked meal that an Aries will love, make a reservation at Char in Hotel Andaluz. The restaurant specializes in wood-fired cuisine, with an emphasis on charcoal-fired meats. Get a table at Sadie’s of New Mexico to indulge in some spicy New Mexican food.
To get an evening cocktail, head to Daydream Rum Bar. Sip on hand-crafted cocktails in a dreamy atmosphere. Or stop by a local brewery to relax and drink a local beer that’s brewed with passion and care. Thirsty Eye Brewery is a microbrewery with live music on the weekends and an art gallery. Flock of Moons Brewing Company brews all of their beer on-site. Order one of their selections to drink in the taproom or out in the tucked-away beer garden.

For a colorful hotel stay filled with whimsy, spend your nights at Hotel Zazz in Nob Hill. Each room at this one-of-a-kind boutique hotel is imaginatively designed. Relax in the outdoor heated pool or grab a nightcap at ZEMA Vinyl Lounge. To get away from the hustle and bustle, book a stay at the Adobe Garden at Los Ranchos Bed & Breakfast. The rooms are reminiscent of Spanish colonial architecture. Spend the afternoon underneath the cottonwood trees or take a swim in the secluded outdoor pool.
