Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, and that placement is not accidental. You arrived to begin things — projects, conversations, movements, anything that needs the initial push of someone unafraid to be wrong in public. Mars rules you, and you carry that fire into every room you enter.

The shadow of Aries is impulsivity that becomes regret, and a temper that wounds people you actually love. The mature Aries has learned to distinguish between courage and recklessness. Your real gift is not the willingness to fight — it is the willingness to start when others are paralyzed.

You'll recognize yourself in Aries if "no" provokes more determination than less, if you have a closet full of half-finished projects and zero shame about it, and if you've already made three plans before reading this sentence.
