Aries
MAR 21 - APR 19
AMBITIOUS, INDEPENDENT, IMPATIENT
The first sign of the Zodiac, Aries are the trailblazers. Passionate and independent, Aries will never do something just because everyone else is doing it—a Ram needs to be 100 percent committed to the task at hand. Competitive to the max, the best way to motivate an Aries is to turn something into a contest. Aries will put everything they have (and then some) into winning. Loyal, smart, and impulsive, they always have multiple projects on their mind, and won't be satisfied until their work, social life, and personal lives line up exactly with the dream life they've envisioned. Those who are drawn to magnetic Aries may have trouble keeping up—but if they can, they'll have a friend for life.
An Aries sign will always tell you what they're thinking, with a frankness that may occasionally border on rudeness. But even if an Aries seems overly blunt with their opinion, that's only because Rams value honesty above all else. And it works both ways. While an Aries may be the first to say if they think that you just phoned in a project, they'll also be the first to compliment you for a job well done. Rams may also have a short fuse. That fiery temper can be an asset. When an Aries is angry, they'll never play the passive-aggressive card. But for people who don't know them well, their temper can be a turn off. Learning how to work out their anger—whether by going to the gym every day, taking some deep breaths, or learning to chill before they Tweet their thoughts to the world—is a lifelong process for Rams.

TOP LOVE MATCHES
Sagittarius
When it comes to love, Aries signs are all about initial attraction. They can sense chemistry in the first sentence uttered by a potential partner. Forthright and unabashed, an Aries will do everything in their power to go after someone they want. Sometimes, they need to learn how to slow down and foster long-term connections. Fireworks are fun, but they don't necessarily make a great match. Aries are amazing lovers: versatile, passionate, and always invested in the moment.
Love Style
Aries’ love style is bold, passionate, and full of fiery intensity. As a natural initiator, Aries tends to fall hard and fast, pursuing love with confidence and enthusiasm. They thrive on excitement and desire a relationship that feels alive, adventurous, and full of sparks. Aries is fiercely loyal and protective of the one they love, often expressing affection through action, spontaneity, and physical connection. While they may sometimes act impulsively or be quick to anger, their love is sincere and heartfelt. They value honesty, independence, and mutual passion, seeking a partner who can match their energy and keep up with their vibrant pace.
Friendship Style
Libra’s friendship style is warm, sociable, and deeply considerate. They are natural diplomats who thrive in connection and genuinely enjoy being around others. In friendship, Libra values harmony and often acts as the peacemaker in their circle, always striving to create balance and ensure everyone feels included and appreciated. They’re great listeners, offering thoughtful advice and emotional support without judgment. Libras are drawn to shared experiences that involve beauty, creativity, or meaningful conversation, and they often go out of their way to maintain strong, reciprocal bonds. With their charm and grace, they build friendships rooted in mutual respect, kindness, and connection.
Career, Money, & Success Traits
Libra approaches career, money, and success with a focus on balance, beauty, and meaningful relationships. They thrive in careers that involve creativity, collaboration, or justice—such as design, law, diplomacy, fashion, or public relations—where their natural charm, aesthetic sense, and fairness can shine. Libras are team players who value harmony in the workplace and often become the mediators or motivators in group settings.
When it comes to money, Libra enjoys comfort and luxury, sometimes splurging on beautiful things or experiences. However, they are also capable of managing finances wisely when motivated by long-term goals. Success for Libra isn’t just about wealth or status—it’s about feeling fulfilled, appreciated, and surrounded by beauty and balance in both their personal and professional lives.

Greatest Challenges
Libra’s greatest challenges often stem from their deep desire for harmony and approval. In their effort to avoid conflict, they can struggle with indecision, people-pleasing, or suppressing their true feelings to keep the peace. This can lead to internal tension or resentment over time. Libras may also have difficulty setting boundaries or making firm choices, especially when trying to weigh everyone's needs equally. Their love for beauty and balance can sometimes cause them to focus too much on appearances or avoid the messy but necessary parts of growth and confrontation. Learning to embrace discomfort, speak their truth, and make confident decisions are key areas of growth for Libra.
Secret Weapon
Strong, adamant, and forged in fire, it's fitting that Aries' secret weapon is iron, one of the strongest elements. Weld, cast, machine, forge, temper, harden, or anneal it, iron can take on a seemingly limitless range of shapes and qualities. For an Aries, an iron-rich diet can boost confidence and performance.
