Aries ! About Your Self... |
The spring equinox, March 21, is the beginning of the new zodiacal
year and Aries, the first sign, is therefore that of new beginnings.
The young ram is adventurous, ambitious, impulsive, enthusiastic
and full of energy. The Arian is a pioneer both in thought and
action, very open to new ideas and a lover of freedom. They
welcome challenges and will not be diverted from their purpose
except by their own impatience, which will surface if they don't
get quick results.
Aries subjects are courageous leaders with a genuine concern
for those they command, being responsible people, it is rare
that they will use their subordinates to obtain their own objectives
as leaders, but occasionally it does happen. They do not make
very good followers because they are too "take charge".
They may be unwilling to obey or submit to directions for which
they can see no reason, or with which they disagree. They are
much concerned with self, both positively and negatively - self-reliant
but also self centered (sometimes) and concerned with their
own personal advancement and physical satisfaction. Their immense
energy makes them aggressive and restless, argumentative occasionally,
headstrong, quick tempered, easily offended and capable of holding
grudges if they feel themselves affronted.
As the first sign in the zodiac, you, as an Arian (as you are
referred to), is to simply "get something started and lead
the way". The Sun in this zodiac position gives your will
free rein to express itself. You could be doing this in the
form of some leadership role, or by forcing others to look at
themselves in a new way. You can accomplish this by knowingly
carrying out a deliberate act in the name of some cause that
moves you. A negative effect of this sun sign is that you could
sometimes unknowingly make it hard for others to relate to you,
as you really are.
In your personal relationships Arians are frank, direct and
candid, and make enthusiastic and generous friends. You are
liable to have a high sex drive and make passionate but fastidious
lovers. There is, however, a negative side to your associations
with other people. You can easily be irritated by slowness or
moderation in your companions and, though yourselves sensitive,
ride roughshod over the sensitivities of others. The intensity
of your sexual urges can drive you to promiscuity and a Don
Juan-like counting of conquests of the opposite sex. It can
also trick you into early unwise marriage which may end disastrously.
Arians are highly devoted to their children, even to the point
of laying down their own lives, so that they might live. You
will not find a more defensive and loving parent in all the
zodiac.
It is preferable to be aware of your pioneering spirit and not
disregard it. For in acknowledging it you not only enjoy life
more, but you avoid being pushed around by others. Your nature
is usually push or be pushed, with little middle ground. This
can at times be objectionable to others, but you must have the
freedom to act, rather then just thinking about it, getting
pent-up in the process. At all costs you need to avoid negative
emotions such as resentment, regret and self-pity, for they
would deny you what is essential to your nature: straightforwardness.
Mentally Arians are intellectual and objective, but can be in
rare situations bigoted and extremist in religion and politics.
They are good champions of lost causes and last-ditch resistance.
They are quick-witted but sometimes foolhardy and over optimistic,
lacking thoroughness and the ability to evaluate difficulties
in the undertakings into which they often rush impulsively.
The great need of Aries natives is to exercise an iron self-control,
to discipline the qualities and tendencies of their character
to the advantage, not the detriment, of the society in which
they move.
As an Arian, you like a challenge that will stir you to action.
This challenge may just be frustration; or at a more controlled
level, you may have clear direction and know what or whom you're
fighting for. If your direction is not clear, then ask yourself
and listen to your inner voice. You will come up with an answer.
An Arian without a direction in which to go, or a without a
cause to fight for, would be against your nature and make you
more a "sheep" then a ram!
Arian, do not be afraid to be forceful, for this is the very
core of your nature. If you feel fear in your heart, then look
for a history of negative events in you personal history, such
as violence or abuse from others. Being fearful may also indicate
a household in childhood that negated independence and personal
initiative in you. This could have inhibited your natural urge
to go forward into life as the leader and champion you were
born to be. Conversely, such bad influences could also have
led you to be overly forceful, or to be unsympathetic to your
own need and sensitivity.
You make good athletes and climbers, doctors, explorers (of
new ideas as well as uncharted territory, the latter in these
days including adventuring into outer space), soldiers, sailors
and airmen, and leaders, though awkward subordinates, in industry
and politics.
Much as you are the Ram, there is still the little lamb in you,
which means that at times you would attain your goals more easily
by gently giving in without resistance to the demands of a given
social situation, rather than getting your horns entangled in
something larger and more powerful than yourself. This is a
talent akin to knowing the difference between what you can change,
and what you cannot. This of course takes patience, the acquiring
of which is definitely your greatest achievement, along with
your sense of your own inner softness.

Possible Health Concerns... |
Aries governs the head and brain, and Arians are said to be
prone to headaches, particularly migraines, sunstroke, neuralgia
and depression. Indigestion and nervous disorders are also threats
to you, and your rashness, impetuosity and wholesale physical
commitment make you liable to accidents and physical injuries.
You like extremes. Physical, emotional and mental, and benefit
profoundly by experiencing them; but if your extremism goes
too far beyond social acceptability, then expect to be extremely
lonely.

PROBLEMS THAT MAY ARISE FOR YOU, AND THEIR SOLUTIONS |
As with all sun signs, we all have unique traits to our personalities.
When these traits are suppressed, or unrealized, problems will
arise. However, with astrology we can examine the problem and
assess the proper solution based on the sun sign characteristics.
As an Arian you may see things below that really strike home.
Try the solution, you most likely will be amazed at the results.
If you find yourself on the receiving end of the negatives below,
it is because you are failing to express the positive.
Problem : Projects that come to nothing. Partnerships
full of conflict and argument.
Solution : See your role as the "person with ideas"
then, work on inspiring others to carry them out. Develop a
higher capacity to "listen" and not speak.
Problem : Lacking real coherence and direction. Failing
to contemplate, only pretending to be decisive.
Solution : What springs from your actions is only a reflection
of your heart. Soul search and resolve some personal issues
you may have buried.
Problem : Being deserted by others because they cannot
make you notice them and their feelings in any other way.
Solution : If you truly have a point, if you don't they
won't. Examine your attitude and put yourself in their shoes.
Problem : Always tripping over yourself, inviting conflict
and harsh treatment. Getting deflated.
Solution : Learn the art of looking before you leap.
Which means first finding out what it is you wish to make happen
first, then act.
