Aries
The Ram | March 21 - April 19
Personality & Characteristics
Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, is all about action, initiation, and leadership. As a fire sign ruled by Mars, Aries energy is passionate, motivated, and fiercely independent. Those born under this sign are natural pioneers, often brimming with courage and a desire to tackle challenges head-on.
The Ram symbolizes the Aries spirit: bold, determined, and sometimes prone to charging ahead without looking. This can make them enthusiastic starters but sometimes impatient with long-term details. Their straightforward and honest nature is both a strength and a vulnerability.
