Introduction

When reading the personality description of these traits above, please keep in mind that the ones discussed here are mainly indicative of the influence of their element, and the influence of their ruling planet. The positions of the other celestial bodies at the very moment of their birth could change, or temper them to a vast extent.

Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac which is a masculine, movable and fiery in nature. Aries is dominated by its ruling planet Mars. It begins at the Spring Equinox, the point when the Earth enters into a period of longer days and shorter nights. Aries is a powerful symbol of new beginnings, energy, light, and creativity. People born under the sign of Aries may well turn out to be great leaders, if they can keep their aggression and tendency to dominate others in check. Aries must always be undertaking new projects, especially creative endeavors, to keep their high energy occupied. They are extroverts and tend toward impulsivity. Their challenge is to properly channel their energy. Aries personalities are independent. Being the first of the zodiac signs, they venture out and are go-getters, often leading the way. Their upbeat and magnetic personality often entices others to follow their lead because Aries personalities bring excitement into others live.

The Nature in general:

Parashara describes Aries as follows: The complexion of Aries is blood-red. It has a prominent (big) body. It is a quadruped sign and strong during the night. It denotes courage. It resides in the East, and is related to kings. It wanders in the grassy lands and around lakes surrounded by vegetable and its predominant guna is Rajasic. It rises with its back and it is a fiery sign. Its ruler is Mangal" (Mars) which represents strength, and is a male and movable sign. Mesha represents the head of the Kalapurusha.

The natives born under Aries sign will be the trail blazer and the pathfinder. They will be great starters of things but soon they fed up with their work and soon hand it over to someone else to finish while they search for new worlds to conquer. They love absolutely a challenge that will stir them to a motion. The monetary rewards will not be as attractive as the inner satisfaction they get from meeting and overcoming these challenges and leaving your opponents in your heel dust. That is their role in life and the reason that the Sun is exalted in the Aries sign as it is here the will is given free rein to express itself. Aries are born leaders and teachers or preachers. Their teaching ability will be felt more in the relationships they have with others. For example, they will make able people to see their own actions in a new way or a different light. Everyone benefits who has associations with the higher, more evolved type of Arian natives.

Force will be a part of their nature but it does not mean that they would not be afraid of being forceful when circumstances dictate them. If there have been circumstances in their early life which made them a victim of force then one may see fear creeping in within them and for this reason if they do not allow them self to exhibit their true nature it will lead to suppression and inner turmoil. By suppressing the natural urges, especially when needed them to set right a wrong to them self or someone else can also lead to guilt and actual, bodily ailments.

In Indian astrology which is also known as Vedic astrology, Mars is considered a part of the earth which stuck off from earth after a heavy collision due to its angry nature and therefore also known as the son of the earth.

According to Western Astrology Mars has been named after the Roman God of War who was said to be daring and totally fearless and therefore the same quality can be found in the personality of a native born under Aries sign.

He is just like a child, who does not fear anything or anybody. The ruling planet of Mars provides an Aries individual with the endless supply of strength, vigor, vivacity and endurance. It instills in him the quality of coming straight to the point, rather than dilly-dallying. The planet is identified with traits like standing up for what is wrong and fighting for what is right. The native is always one of the pioneers and the initiators. He is always determined to move ahead in right, irrespective of how much and how potent are the obstacles in the way. The ruling planet of Mars makes him completely sure of his abilities and instills in him guts, a sense of adventure as well as a strength of purpose. He may, at times, act without giving much thought to the consequences of the actions taken. That's why Mesh is also knows as initiator and warrior.

The planet also imparts mental strength, liveliness and the resolve to succeed. Such individuals move ahead in life without fear and full of drive, determination and fortitude. The courage sometimes makes them blind to the dangers ahead, which may catch them unawares and throw them off balance. However, the drive to move ahead and achieve the goal is so strong that such a setback manages to stop them only temporarily. Then, they again move ahead with the same fierce determination.

Aries is the activist par excellence of the Zodiac. It is an energetic sign of Zodiac. The natives born under Aries sign also show a preference for sports, adventure and travel. They are quite honest and dependable and show an aptitude for mechanical skills. On the negative front, Mars may instill in them impatience, brutality, arrogance, impulsiveness, jealousy and a propensity to indulge in futile and wasted battle. The planet does not instill a foresight in the individuals and for that,, they have to take outside help.

Aries is symbolized by the Ram. The young ram is adventurous, ambitious, impulsive, enthusiastic, and brightly effulgent like fire, strong, mobile, courageous and full of boundless energy, vitality and headstrong animal that capture the spirit of Aries. The Arian is a pioneer both in thought and action, very open to new ideas and a lover of freedom. They will be full of boundless energy, vitality and always need something to do. In fact, the more active they are, the better they feel. The Aries need for action is almost an addiction, and those who do not really understand the Aries personality would probably use this hard word to describe it. 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. In reality, action is the essence of the Aries psychology, the more direct, blunt and to the point action. This is the ideal psychological makeup for the warrior, the pioneer, the athlete or the manager. The lord of Aries, Mars is the Commander of Army in solar family and therefore represent warrior. Aries has a great ability to mobilize energy, to apply strength with agility and mobility.

The moment one come across an Aries native, the first thing that comes to his mind is his/her friendly nature. The friendliest person in our neighborhood will most probably be an Aries personality. People having an Aries profile cannot tolerate injustice, always fight against it and will defend the weak. Person born under Aries sign will have abundant energy to work, vitality, planning ability, strong will power, self confidence, leadership quality, combative, obstinate, love for art elegance and beauty and he will have tend to take risk for others. In general the person will be courageous, dynamic, ambitious, creative, original, independent, freedom lover, frank, assertive, forceful, pioneering, adventurer, enterprising and a person who loves changes very much. He will be short tempered and will get provoked quickly. He will be talkative, out spoken, active, lascivious, stubborn, irritable, fast walker and like traveling frequently. He will eat sparingly and quickly but will be mentally virile. Mars being lord add additional fighting qualities with other people as well as with circumstance and also he appears to enjoy the good struggle.

Aries is called the sign of sacrifice. They love beauty, order, harmony, and elegant surroundings. They should not be circumscribed when giving out their true work of genius. It is almost impossible to hide anything from an Aries individual who has recognized his or her power of intuition, and for this reason those born under this sign develop quickly the gifts of the spirit. They are often excellent psychoanalysts, mind readers, and spiritual comforters.

They understand without words the especial trouble that is weighing upon the heart of a friend, and are frequently able to explain its cause and banish its effects. Their wills are so dominant, their sympathies so quick and kindly, and their clairvoyant power so marked, that they rarely ever fail in their work of ministering to the sorrowful. Arians make very good friends and will be ready and able to help you solve your problems with the same zeal and conviction that he/she attacks his/her own. Sometimes their great regard for their friends will apparently blind them to their friends' faults, but it is doubtful if those born under this sign are ever really unaware of such weaknesses. It is a rare exception, however, when they will admit them to others, although they are not usually reticent in speaking of the failings and eccentricities of those to whom they feel no necessity of loyalty.

People born under Aries are usually very executive, earnest, and determined. They accomplish what they resolve to do against all opposition. They are leaders, and naturally dominate those about them. They are noble, generous, magnetic, progressive, and have occult power and metaphysical tastes. They are good scholars, are bright, genial, witty and great talkers. They can always lead the conversation into new and interesting paths, and are never at a loss to provide entertainment. The genius of this sign is intuition, and silent electromagnetic power by means of the hands. These people are large and true, but are apt to be children of caprice, which has a sad effect upon their destiny. They reach their highest attainment through knowledge and the regenerative love-action of the heart.

In solar system Mars have a special quality that he never faces defeat in planetary war and that quality reflects the nature of the native of this sign. Mostly native of Aries sign never fails in his attempts but if he fails in first attempt, it makes him adamant and more determined to achieve his goal. Mars is considered full of energy and therefore the native will have furnace of energy within his heart and therefore he never feel satisfied with his achievements. This quality of never feeling satisfied is a reflection of its symbol Ram. Ram can not be easily dominated by others and hits his goal with his head until his attention is diverted towards other object.

Being the chief of army, Mars is basically a warrior and a person who is full of fighting spirit, energy, have power in his arms to hold the weapons and have capacity to deal with them can be called a warrior. Being the lord of Aries, Mars add these qualities in native automatically. The native will have a very aggressive nature towards his goal and never satisfied with one achievement. This also signifies that native of Aries sign can not remain peaceful; indeed will keep himself busy in one or another work. It is well known fact that person who is full of strength will not only be satisfied easily but also take care as well as responsibilities and burden of others, if he is appreciated. Similarly, the native of Aries sign can be satisfied easily if one appreciate his qualities sincerely and he likes to take care of those who make him happy or who praise him. He is full of compassion and always tries to cheer the people around him. He likes to see people around him happy by favoring them one or other way. He will have inborn quality of leadership and proved to be a responsible leader.

The characteristic of a person having muscle power and have inbuilt strength can not be ignored that such a person can be provoked easily and therefore treated as sort tempered. Energy and strength of Mars also reflect this nature in native. Therefore, the native born under this sign may also be sort tempered and provoked easily. He will fight with those whom he dislikes or who do not work according to his wish and displease him. Negativity annoys him very much. He can get very irritated, inconsiderate and difficult when his needs are not met or get delayed for too long. Sometime due to this nature native hurt himself badly. The executive ability of native born under this sign is so marked that occasionally he comes to grief from an overestimate of it. Due to this he becomes inflated with success, and this develops a recklessness, which leads to loss and disaster, and often to nervous prostration.

But native will have another good quality of forgiveness and not inclined to develop grudges. A person who have healthy mind and who is a warrior in real can have these qualities. The interesting thing is that the native of Aries sign is rarely malicious or spiteful, even when waging war. Aries people fight without hate for their opponents. To them it is all good-natured fun, a grand adventure, a game and a phase of life. He will be highly energetic and always full of creative ideas. One will have to keep up with his energy levels and are bound to get tired in the process, at least mentally. An Aries native will always remain young at heart, even when he gets 90 years old. Slow moves make him impatient. He is one of those who always move ahead of others, boldly and confidently.

In Brihat Jataka, Varaha Mihira has said that a person born with the Moon in Aries will be fond of vegetable food and will eat hot meals, will be of a quickly nature, fond of travels and sexual union. Often he will be the eldest one in brothers and sister but if he has an elder brother he will be an enterprising leader.

Native likes to get things done, and in their passion and zeal often lose sight of the consequences for themselves and others. He often tries to be diplomatic and tactful, but it will be hard for him to be so. When he tries to do so he feels that he is being dishonest and phony. It is hard for him even to understand the mindset of the diplomat, the consensus builder, the front office executive. These people are involved in endless meetings, discussions, talks and negotiations - all of which seem a great waste of time when there is so much work to be done, so many real achievements to be gained. A native of Aries sign can understand, once it is explained, that talks and negotiations, the social graces, lead ultimately to better, more effective actions. When confronted with a problem he will never think about the nature of the problem and analyses the situation. Planning and thinking about a problem seems like a waste of time for him. Instead of it he will think about doing something to solve it and therefore face it bravely as he has amazing confidence in his abilities. However, sometimes native feel like he is too active for his own good and he easily abandon one project or activity and move on to the next because it is new and stimulating. Some times due to this nature he got too many untied ends and unfinished things.

Action and thought are radically different principles. Physical activity is the use of brute force. Thinking and deliberating require one not to use force - to be still. For example it is not good for a sportsman to be deliberating the next move; this will only slow down his or her reaction time. A sportsman must act instinctively and instantly. This is how native of Aries sign tend to behave in life. He will be quick, instinctive decision-maker and his decisions tend to be translated into action almost immediately. When his intuition is sharp and well tuned, his actions will be powerful and successful. When his intuition is off, his actions can be disastrous. But this will not scare the native. Just as a good warrior knows that in the course of combat he or she might acquire a few wounds, so too does the native realize that in the course of being true to yourself you might get embroiled in a disaster or two. It is all part of the game. A native of Aries sign feels strong enough to face any type of challenge in life. There are many Aries people who are intellectual. They make powerful and creative thinkers. But even in this realm they tend to be pioneers - outspoken and blunt. These types of Aries tend to elevate (or sublimate) their desire for physical combat in favor of intellectual, mental combat and they are indeed powerful.

The traits of the natives born under Aries sign often seem to contradict each other. They are not born patient, but with those they love they are sometimes patient to stupidity. They will give of their money to those who are too lazy to work for themselves, and will accept excuses and explanations with apparent credulity, although they are seldom deceived.

The Aries male will never back out of a fight. Although he will not foolishly seek one, if compelled he will go in to win, and is always much disappointed if his side is beaten. The Aries woman is not far behind her brother. Her friends, her favorites, are all in all, and the person who places them at a disadvantage will be dealt with in language that cannot easily be misconstrued.

In a simple manner and in nutshell it can be said that the natives born under Aries sign have a strong faith in themselves and the same could be learned by others from them. This basic, rock-bottom faith carries them through the most tumultuous situations of life. Their courage and self-confidence make them natural leaders. Their leadership is more by way of example than by actually controlling others. Aries natives will be highly devoted to their children, even to the point of laying down their own lives, so that they might live.

Mentally natives will be intellectual and objective, but can be in rare situations bigoted and extremist in religion and politics. They will be good champions of lost causes and last-ditch resistance. They will be 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 make themselves self-control, to discipline the qualities and tendencies of their character to the advantage, not the detriment, of the society in which they move.

The Aries Man:

An Aries man is full of surprises and excitement, exceedingly active and will have a lust for adventure. In friendship or relationship with an Aries man, one should be prepared for fast paced adventure, novelty and excitement. He hates monotony and dullness in life. He might be self confident, and have ambitions but some of them may have ego and selfishness in their nature. Physically, generally he will be healthy buoyant in spirit and vibrant in nature. Some natives may have impediment in speech but other will have commanding voice which may sometimes turns to be harsh. He will know how to control people and leave a meaningful strong impression upon them. Romance with him will be full of ups and downs like a roller coaster ride, where one can not get even a single moment to think and brood. Not expecting him to understand that she needs some security every now and then will be better for her. Consistency is something that does not get well with his characteristics profile. The love of an Aries male will warm his partner with passion one minute and the very next minute, she may feel as if she is sitting in the North Pole.

He will always be eager to try new things. That is not to say that every Aries man will only provide an exciting and short-lived relationship, but this may be usually the case. He might stick around any woman if she is a woman that enjoys having the man take the lead and basking in his glory. He enjoys challenge so if she is the woman to offer him challenges he might stick around her for longer period. Remember, Aries man is all about the thrill of the chase. However she should not act as she doesn't care about him. If a woman appears innocent and hard to get, he will wrapped around her little finger. A woman should not take advantage of the Aries man because his short temper will turn into a fury of anger and he way leave and never look back.

His partner should not ever be rude to him otherwise he will be very hurt and will turn into the coldest person on this earth. She will have to start from the scratch again, to get back the comfort level she once shared. When in love, he is very faithful and way too honest and idealistic to fool you. He was not born to indulge in things like promiscuity or even harmless flirtations. However, if his partner is not able to cope up with his constant need for enthusiasm and romance, he may try to look somewhere else.

An Aries man believes in true love and will constantly be in search of it, though it may require mending his heart numerous times in the process. He will be very passionate in love and you will never get the chance to complain about the lack of romance. Right from poetry to candlelight dinners, you will be treated to anything and everything. He is not the one to hold back anything, especially in love. There may be some Aries men who appear very quiet, but inside, they are as lively and full of life as any other male of this zodiac. They just need some time to settle down and after settling they will soon become usual Aries man. Aries man is rebellious at heart and loves to go against the conventions. He needs to learn virtues like humility and modesty. He wants his freedom and doesn't like being tied down. That's the way he is, take it or leave it. However, it's impossible to leave him because he is so loyal, caring, loving, kind and affectionate towards his partner that she may not even think about leaving him. But he is very jealous too. Leaving behind actual flirting, even a teasing look at another man will make him go thousand miles away from her. He wants you to trust him blindly, but he won't do the same for you.

The Aries Woman:

Like Aries man, Aries woman also will have the tendency to lead, over ambitious, courageous and some times their outgoing and spirited nature can make them to appear as masculine. She will be so hotblooded and forceful her partner should be able to handle the heat. The Aries woman is best known by her temperaments. She will be very clear in making her feelings. Aries female is the one who will do anything and everything herself, without needing any male help. One of her basic personality traits is total confidence in her abilities. Because she has to lead in all spheres of her life so she has to be the first one to do anything even for her husband. She loves challenges and believes in miracles. Though it sounds a little freaky, but miracles do happen in her case. Just like a typical Aries, she never learns from her mistakes and is likely to fall in the same hole again.

Every woman of Aries sign will have a deep and hidden desire to be protected and defended by her man. In her dreams she will always be the lovely and gentle, and he is kind and tender. The first thing noted by her about her male counterpart will be that eventually he is more bossy, belligerent and bellicose than her. If she charge his enemies, as she can because of her ruling planet Mars, he will definitely adore her for it and in return he will give her every bit as much loyalty as she gives him.

Although romance is something that without which no Aries can live and the same is true for an Aries woman also. However, for her, not getting on without romance is not same as not being able to live without a man. In her heart, she will always be yearning for that someone special, thinking about him in the monsoon and that will be her idea of romance. She doesn't need a real man for it. This means Aries women also fantasies in their dreams. The best part of the relationship will be the beginning, then the spark will be there and she will try to catch him to be hers. Generally she will find happiness in a long-term relationship because she enjoys sharing everything with her partner. She will like to have not only a romantic partner but a best friend too. She will have a great need for love and passion but she will never let a man become her master. She considers her partner to be equal. Aries women are not for domineering men. She will be faithful but she expects the same in return. An Aries woman can survive even the toughest of circumstances alone and has the ability to come back even after the most gruesome tragedies. She can play the role of a female perfectly and, at the same time, can do everything that a man can do. Perhaps she feels more comfortable with men than women.

An Aries woman requires freedom. Although her independence does not go well with the male ego even that an Aries woman never wants a puppy for lover or a husband. She seeks a man, but not the one who constantly keep track on her. The best way to woo her is to throw subtle hints, be a little detached and keep her wondering. If her lover or husband gives the impression that he can resist her charms then to prove that she's desirable, she will come rushing towards him. Aries women will never have to yearn for male attention. An Aries woman does not like flattery. Her lover or husband should be sincere while complementing her because extra sweetness and too much closeness can make her run away, but she doesn't want him to be too detached also. For her love means sharing each and everything, right from her emotions and checkbook to his bank account.

One has to maintain that delicate balance and still keep the romance alive. Once she has committed to him, she will be extremely sentimental and very loyal. One should not try to dominate an Aries woman and also not letting her to dominate him because she will not be able to tolerate either of the extremes. Her expectations are too high, but she will also give double in return. So one should give her reasons to be proud of him and also not forget to praise her for her talent too. She can be jealous because she wants a man to give her all of his attention, so her jealously is rooted in her possessiveness because she has to be number one in his eyes. She will always encourage and give strength to her partner so an Aries woman is great to have in times of despair or need, she will always be there for you. In order to have this happy ending, she needs to feel appreciated and loved.

She is very possessive and love is something which she can not share at any cost. She can be very jealous even at the slightest of suspicion. If an Aries woman gets hurt, she will become as cold as the ice and this behavior may last an entire lifetime. Although she will possessive but doesn't like to be possessed. She wants her freedom and your complete trust. She is generous to the faults of her loved ones and she will not like that any person criticize him in front of her. On the other hand, if one is good to her, she will be extremely kind, tender, loyal and supportive. She will extremely passionate and forever-lasting relationships believer. Although, this leaves her disillusioned many a times but she will never play games with a male as she is incapable of deceit. Although tries to show that she is very strong lady, she will be an innocent, very emotional woman and as vulnerable as a baby.

She may be quite extravagant but she will be a caring mother, who makes no unnecessary fuss and sparks children's imagination. An Aries woman may have a bad temper, but it will go away as quickly as it came and leave no grudges behind. Aries woman will be a complete woman, who gets hurt easily and is totally innocent. Though she will be a little impulsive and bossy but she will give complete security and fight against the world for her loved one.

The Aries woman is for the person who likes an independent self-driven woman who can fend for herself and is not clingy and needy.

The Aries child:

Like Aries man and woman, Aries child will also have some special qualities which differs him from others. The children born under this sign should not be driven, teased even in any emergencies. They are sometimes called the children of the four horns, on account of their invincible determination to win. Aries child will expect all attention of his parents at any cost. As far as he is concerned, he is the boss and parents have no right to ignore him. As he starts growing, his attention gaining tactics become more and more refined. From just wailing and crying, he will come to banging the table with his kiddie's spoon, when parents don't listen to him. Subtlety is not one of the personality traits of Aries children. They will shout at the top of their voice to let parents know what exactly they want. This trait will be there in both the male as well as the female Aries child.

He is quite eager about everything, right from walking to talking. He will probably start doing both much before the other children. He couldn't wait to take a test to prove that he/she is more capable than his/her classmates. If parents or teachers want him to learn discipline, it is better to start teaching him from the moment they get discharged from the hospital. He is not the one to learn from his mistakes and all the things like knives etc. have to keep out of his reach. An Aries baby is very affectionate and this feeling will be demonstrated quite often. He shows his affections by hugging and kissing.

Showing authority by parents will make him stubborn. One has to show him respect if he wants him to understand something. He will have a quick temper, but it seldom lasts long. After he has cooled down, he will be his usual cheerful self again. Aries child will not be at all selfish and will easily share his most favorite toys with everyone if other children are not nasty to him. Otherwise, the generosity will come to an end and it will be time for fireworks. If parent or teacher wants him to do anything he should be given a challenge rather then a comparison. He will finish the work even before the time to repeat it again. Once an Aries child learns something, he will remember it throughout his life. He is very creative and has a vivid imagination. He will dream the most impossible dreams, but will be ground to reality. Practicality an Aries child is an odd combination of contradictory things. He has to be the first one to do anything and will always want to lead.

Beneath the tough outer shell of an Aries child will be soft hearted, which is vulnerable. He is sacred of being unloved and needs a constant reassurance. Many a times, he will rush into the arms of parents or elders after being hurt by the real world. This child should be hugged firmly otherwise, he will get completely shattered. Miracles, fairy godmothers, Santa Claus and angels are something in which all the Aries children believe. One should not tell him that all they are wrong.

Generally an Aries child will be impatient in nature. Responsibility is not in the list of his qualities. One has to teach him through logic and affection. If his work is praised then he will do correct things more often. He will not be too well with finances but will give his money to a needy person without any hesitation. Like others Aries native, neither he will tolerate injustice nor call a wrong thing as right. Giving him orders won't work at all. He will not do the work that is ordered to him but if he is asked same with a smile; he will run for the same. An Aries child loves his freedom, he will be very optimistic. Negative and distressing thoughts can really hurt him deeply. He can not sit idly. If an Aries child is loved, nurtured and leaded gently then he will dream the impossible dreams and make them come true also.

Physical Structure:

Person with a Aries sign will be slender in stature, average height depending upon other features of horoscope and ascendant. Generally he will have well built body, round eyes, sharp sight, long and oval face, long neck, ruddy and swarthy complexion, broad head at temples and narrow at chin, large shoulders, well set-up teeth, scar or mole on forehead or head, bad nails, large thigh, weak knees, busy eye brows and well developed bones. He will be tall and quick, strong, fast walker and fond of walking. Like Ram, person born under this sign will have strong head and will enter in fight of others.

Eating habits:

The native of Aries sign will possess a good appetite like a strong fire and generally will have good digestive power. Even though he will not like to eat food in large quantities at a time, eat sparingly and quickly, however he will be easily satisfied and may like to have small snacks between meals. Some persons may have natural inclination for hot drink and moderately spicy food but as its symbol signifies, most of the persons will more incline to eat healthy vegetarian dishes.

Health:

Basically native having Aries Moon sign will have long life and good health however, placement of its lord Mars in horoscope play a major role for the same. Mars is the karka of blood and if it is well placed then definitely native will enjoy a healthy life. If it is not afflicted and other benefic yogas are present than his health will be excellent. He will be active even at the age of 80 or 90 years. Due to the lordship of Mars, the negative side of native is that he may become rash, adamant, inflexible, haughty, fickle minded and recklessness. In spite of using his mind he may more relies on his muscles power. If Mars is afflicted then native may have tendency to fight and killing attitude towards other.

Aries governs the head and brain and the natives of Aries sign will be prone to headaches, particularly migraines, Sunstroke, neuralgia and depression. Intoxicating beverages and spicy food can spoil his health. Indigestion and nervous disorders are also threats to the native and his/her rashness, impetuosity and wholesale physical commitment make them liable to accidents and physical injuries. Moon is the karka of mind and here happened to be the 4th lord. If Moon is afflicted then the general health of the native will suffer a lot. He will not in position to sleep well in night and sometime he may be out of control due to it or may suffer by brain derangement or fever or insomnia.

Common diseases:

Aries native may have trouble in the head, brain derangement or fever, headache, apoplexy, insomnia, lack of sleep, eye trouble, frequent cuts and burns, complaints of kidney, small pox, inflammatory eruptions, eruptions on head and face, Sunstroke, pyorrhea, epilepsy, vertigo, indigestion, piles, sex-diseases, acne and afflictions to nerve centers.

Love Life:

In personal relationships native will be frank, direct and candid, and make enthusiastic and generous friends. An Aries native tends to go after what he or she likes aggressively. Their tendency will be to jump into relationships and marriages immediately. This is especially true if along with Venus, Sun is also posited in Aries. If an Aries native likes someone, it will be very difficult for him or her to take answer in no. The native will make many attempts to please that one. In other words when an Aries male falls in love, he becomes extremely dedicated towards it. If the commitment fails to develop into a successful relationship, he will try his best to salvage it and make it work again. Still, if it breaks up, he will brood over it for sometime.

The strength, energy and vitality given by Mars can also produce lust and the native may have tendency to have affairs in earlier years. It can also trick native into early unwise marriage which may end disastrously. In marriage and partnerships Aries like those who are more passive, gentle, tactful and diplomatic - people who have the social grace and skills they sometimes lack. Partners always represent a hidden part of us - a self that we cannot express personally. Though Aries native can be exasperating in relationships, especially if they are not understood by their partners; they are never consciously or willfully cruel or malicious. It is just that they are so independent and sure of themselves that they find it almost impossible to see somebody else's view point or position. This is why an Aries needs as a partner someone with lots of social grace.

An Aries native will never start another affair behind the back of his first love. He will first end old relationships and then move on to the next one. Even before this, he will try to clear the matter and tell the partner that things are not going as smooth as they should. He will also try to patch up the matter and make things work. But, if situation still doesn't improve or nothing is done from other side to improve the situation, Aries native will decide to move on.

On the plus side, an Aries is decent and honest by his nature that one can lean on him. What he or she lacks in diplomacy is made up for in integrity. Once the native reached middle age, he will be more settled and peaceful in family affairs. An Aries native is very expressive and will expect the same from other side. Moreover he loves to see that his loved ones also love him and care for him. Aries native also like to see the heroine like behavior of his loved ones as described in novels and storybooks. That means he loved to live in fantasy. The native loves challenges in love also and if other person does not show any interest he will try to do every thing to impress him/her. Aries natives are very passionate in love and even do not like a teasing look of their partner at another person.

Profession and Finance:

These persons are powerful people who wield much authority and notoriety but are quite changeable, quick tempered and can not bear to be contradicted, and resent being told of their faults. The native has in born leadership qualities so he may be trade-union leader, an industrialist, owner of gambling houses or liquor houses, an explorer, architecture, a surgeon, dentist or chemist. His profession may also be attached with judicial services, armed forces, martial-services, metalwork, speculations and lotteries, fire-arms, chemicals, medicines, agriculture, gardening and he may be a person who lives with tools and machineries i.e. an engineer, butcher, firemen, mechanics, sportsmen/women and a manure dealer.

If he is not permitted to do his work in his own way then he get into confusion, and often lose all interest in the work. His stubbornness is the result of the intensity of his natures, and more of an appearance than a reality. But the native usually will be very fortunate in business and in making money.

One may think that a pioneering type would want to break with the social and political conventions of society. But this is not so with the natives born under Aries sign. They are pioneers within conventional limits, in the sense that they like to start their own businesses within an established industry. Saturn will be the planet which will be the lord of 10th house and therefore rules his life's work and professional aspirations. This tells some interesting things about his character. First one, it shows that, in order to reach his full career potential, native need to develop some qualities which will be a bit alien to his basic nature. To achieve short-range objectives, no one can beat him but a career is long term object which is built over time. He needs to become better administrator and organizer. He needs to be able to handle details better and to take a long-range view of his projects and career in general. Generally they are very generous, and distinguished for their good works, but are not so fortunate in worldly affairs as those above alluded to.

Some Aries people find it difficult to stick with a project until the end. Since they get bored quickly and are in constant pursuit of new adventures, they prefer to pass an old project or task on to somebody else in order to start something new. Those Aries who learn how to put off the search for something new until the old is completed will achieve great success in their careers and professional lives. The tendency with most of the Aries teachers, speakers, and writers is to give up everything to their work, and so sacrifice health and usefulness, and spoil their beautiful inspirational powers.

Aries natives like society to judge them on their own merits, on their real and actual achievements. A reputation acquired by 'hype' feels false to them. The natives having Aries sign, money is a key to convenience and luxury. He likes to earn and spend quickly; money will never be for hoarding for him. He makes money only to play with or to spend upon others. This makes it difficult to become well to do unless other combinations for wealth, i.e. dhan yogas are there in his birth chart. He is generous in the matters of time and money. Saturn also become the lord of d eleventh house which signifies that if it is well placed then native can develop good earning power. It become always true for the native that he earns money through hard work and sustained efforts. As native will be trustworthy he will be appreciated by his employers for his this quality.

Aries natives often excel as builders or estate agents. They are hard workers with a lot of endurance and they can earn large sums of money due to the strength of their sheer physical energy. But money is not as important in their life as are other things like action, adventure, sport, etc. They need motivations. Money as a way of attaining pleasure is another important motivation. An Aries functions best in his own businesses or as manager of his own departments within a large business or corporation. They also function better when out in the field rather than behind a desk.

Venus being the lord of second house (Dhan Bhava) and seventh house become important planet for money. It means that Aries need to develop more of the social graces in order to realize their full earning potential. Just getting the job done, which is what an Aries excels at, is not enough to create financial success. The co-operation of others needs to be attained. Customers, clients and co-workers need to be made to feel comfortable; and in order to get success many people need to be treated properly. When Aries people develop these abilities or hire someone to do this for them, their financial potential is unlimited.

An Aries is happens to be the ruler at home. The male will tend to delegate domestic matters to the female. The female Aries will want to rule the roost. Both tend to be handy round the house. Both like large families and both believe in the sanctity and importance of the family. An Aries is a good family person, although he or she does not especially like being at home a lot, preferring instead to be roaming about.

Although by nature Aries natives are considered combative and wilful but surprisingly they are soft, gentle and even vulnerable with their children and partners. The Cancer sign fall on 4th house which is considered the house of family and home. Moon is the ruler of Cancer. So when the Moon is well placed, aspected or conjuncted with benefic and malefic do not influence it in Birth Horoscope, the native will be tender towards the family and want a family life that is nurturing and supportive. Native likes to come home after a hard day on the battlefield of life to the understanding arms of their partner and the unconditional love and support of their family.

Compatibility of Aries in relationship with other Zodiac signs

Aries-Aries: The Ram is inclined to do things in bursts of enthusiasm, so two Rams together might move from a first date to the altar or at least to the bedroom in the beginning. The Ram is a leader and a pioneer who loves to come first, or be at the head of the queue. Thus, both will be competing to show off for their new found love or demonstrate their wares, recount their achievements and boast about their dreams at death-defying speeds. The meeting of two Rams can make for a fascinating mating dance, but can become a competition within no time flat. If they lock their horns and end in a battle to prove who the best is; the fires of romance will incandesce and singe a few fleeces. It is no good getting carried away with enthusiasm if each heads in a different direction. In the beginning there will be happiness but after the honeymoon period is over there may be the moments of disillusion. When fire meets another fire, the flames will go higher and hotter. Possible ramifications of an association between two Aries can be judged by this statement. This type of scenario can be seen in every association whether it is marriage, friendship, romance, business or any other association.

Both are independent individuals and don't like feeling owned by anyone. Neither can tolerate being dominated by anyone else, so they make their own decisions, and direct their lives on their own. They respect one another's autonomy. When a native dominated by Mars clashes with another native of same category; the result can be full scale war, with all flags flapping, bravely and colorfully. If one of the two Aries native is stronger by planetary position at birth chart, then the weaker native will surrender himself and gradually become the neurotic sheep constantly and pathetically apologizing for his or her existence or else rationalizing every work and action due to the fear of offending or being misunderstood. It will never be easy for two Aries born natives to exist in tranquil harmony.

Aries girl will be fiercely independent, bright and clever in comparison to Aries man but Aries man think himself more independent, bright and clever than her. In the starting of the relationship he will demand for recognition of it without caring that how much he is fooling her and himself. Every time he will try to teach Aries girl a lesson that male Aries is more powerful to win the battle. She might drop her career to take up full time work of home to unfold her womanhood and establish his manhood. At first it may be seen that these two are well mated sexually because they both require the same thing of love as every Aries native believes in as absolute romantic dogma. Using the word soul-mate is not necessary but Aries native never doubt and when they love, their union will made to last not only throughout a lifetime but beyond also.

A male of Aries sign will wish that she should not be jealous of him but not even look at another man. A woman of Aries sign will also wish in similar way. This clearly shows that they want independence for their self but wish that another should not do the same. This is nothing but selfishness of the natives born under this sign which is symbolized by a Ram. This is the real character of the Sign and its symbol.

Sometimes, however, there will be too much emphasis on individualism rather than on being close and nurturing the relationship. Ego will be a dominant factor in the relationship. Both will be sensitive to criticism. Almost inevitably they will compete with each other, and in small doses this can be invigorating. But it easily becomes nasty, and one of them will likely to get hurt. Time and effort is required to make this relationship work. If the one of them does not sacrifice their Mars courage, initiative or independence, an Aries-Aries relationship can not work. Finally it is not a match made in heaven.

Aries-Taurus: The natives born under Aries sign, the fiery and impulsive Ram makes an interesting partner for Taurus, the generally calm and centered bull. The Ram is always ready for action, while the Bull may prefer just sitting quietly. Although the both may not seem to have much in common, bull can find shared interests and goals that can bring both together. When the mighty Ram meets gentle Bull, they seem to have much in common, great determination, point-blank honesty and an appetite for life. However, clear differences will soon emerge. The Ram's determination initiates and gets things done, but the Bull will take their own time to do things, stubbornly resisting any effort to push the pace. Aries periodically becomes gripped with an idea and wants to take an immediate action to act on it. Taurus prefers to fully perceive the whole idea and respond to situation with a more practical and cautious attitude. If Aries ever stumbles or fails, then Taurus will not miss an opportunity to remind them of their shortcomings. This can be infuriating to Aries and very detrimental to the relationship. Appreciation of each other's different approaches will help the relation grow harmoniously. Both should be able to adapt each other's style or habits. In the process, Taurus can help supply the reliability and consistent dedication needed to help bring
