ARIES: March 21 to April 19
THE INNER YOU
Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, is the symbol of leadership. You like being first--and you like to be in charge. You're not obnoxious about it--you just prefer to control you own projects and plans, and not be under anyone's thumb. You have an intense drive to succeed and you put a lot of pressure on yourself. Inside, you're filled with nervous energy and worry about how you're going to handle everything. You hate to be bored; you're always looking for something different--new people and places that promise excitement and adventure. You have very little patience--you need to practice sticking things out. You're also impatient with people who can't resolve a problem; you believe in taking action. What you do have is great generosity and enthusiasm. And although you suffer from occassional self-doubt, you know that if you really want to do something, you can!
HOW OTHERS SEE YOU
Your upbeat, magnetic personality pulls people toward you--you bring excitement into their lives. They envy your aggressiveness in meeting a challenge. Whatever the problem, you give the impression that you have an answer ready. You're also admired for your honesty, but what other people don't like is your tendency to be bossy and sharp-tongued. They're afraid to cross you in an argument because they know you can cut them to the quick.
YOUR BEST TRAITS
You're forward-thinking, and always open to change and new experiences. You have the courage to take risks and not hang back. You're creative and romantic--an eternal optimist. You inspire people to think in new ways, to be independent and to look toward the future (just like you do). And you have a wonderful sense of humor!
YOUR WORST TRAITS
You can be sharply opinionated, tactless and even selfish. At times you're so self-absorbed that you don't see anybody else's needs or point of view. Because you're so sure you know more than others, you're quick to give advice when it's not asked for. When you get bored, you tend to snap at people. And your impatience can cause you to abandon projects once your initial enthusiasm wears off.
THE ROMANTIC YOU
You approach love as you do everything else in your life--with great exuberance! For you, the most exciting part of a flirtation is the beginning--you love the hunt, the chase, the passion. You want your woman/man to shower you with attention and admiration--and you want her/him to be an interesting companion. Secretly you're an old-fashioned romantic searching for an ideal love. When you truly love someone, you're willing to give more than your heart--you become a true friend and a staunch ally. It's not surprising that women/men find you totally spellbinding! But a relationship with you is never easy: You want freedom and total togetherness--at the same time.
