Hello!

Aries "The Ram"" is one of the more ancient Zodiacal constellations first recognized by the Babylonians, and very important as the sun passed through it at the vernal equinox, and was referred to as the "First Point of Aries".
According to Greek legend, it represents the ram with the golden fleece which Jason and the Argonauts searched for.
