Bursting with energy and creative ideas, Arians belong to the first sign of the zodiac. Aries is a fire sign, and Aries people are high-spirited and enthusiastic; they genuinely believe the world is theirs to explore and conquer. Ardent and assertive by nature, these individuals forge ahead with endless projects and activities, which they love to initiate. Arians are the pioneers and leadiers of the zodiac, and even the quieter among them secretly want to be number one or first at something. Rued by the planet Mars, Arians are doers and very rarely sit around twiddling their thumbs.
Combining an active body with a daring and enterprising spirit, these personalities eagerly seek to be in the forefront of any activity. Frequently bold and passionate, they can be highly idealistic and fiercely loyal to the people they love. Arians like to talk at length to their partners about their own favorite projects but can be equally supportive of their partners.
As patience is not their strongest point, often you can recognize Aries people by their direct approach, decisive action, and lack of subtlety and tact. This same impatience can also make them intolerant, impulsive, and highly likely to do something rash on a moment's notice. Arians, however, respond well to crises, as they have the ability to meet challenges head-on and to face difficult situations courageously.
Despite opposing public opinion, Arians will usually refuse to compromise their ideals, even if it gets them into trouble. As they get older, however, most will learn humility, but not without first encountering many confrontations. The men of this sign love to play knight-errant and the women may appear forceful and assertive.
Often Arians are quick to anger and eager to express their opinions, but they are just as quick to forgive and forget. Fired by adrenaline and impatient with detail, these individuals are usually in a hurry and work better when launching projects. Nevertheless, Arian personalities may need to guard against a naive, self-centered nature or a tendancy to bully others.
Generally, Arians are full of creative energy and inspiration and have great faith in themselves. This often shows in natural leadership ability. It is therefore hardly suprising that they can influence others to follow in their footsteps. Refusing to be put down, dynamic and generous, the Aries spirit lives to fight another day.
