Frank,
I guess if one wants to have a typographically clean, high quality Aries symbol (or other astronomic/mathematical/physical symbols), the best bet is to get rid of "normal" word processors (like M$-Office) and use LaTex instead. Drawback is a steep learning curve. It's not a WhatYouSeeISWhatYouGet editor, but more ar less a programming language to genrate PDF documents.
It's quite common between physicists, mathematicians and some engeneering guys as you can produce very high quality documents that look like a book published by Springer.... :-)
For occasional use the method of searching for the UTF-8 symbol is for sure the best way...
