About Aries

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, and astrologers link it with beginnings. Its people are described as brave and quick to act, with a strong need to lead.

Honesty, drive and a fast recovery from setbacks are the strengths that astrologers name for Aries. The weak side is impatience: plans can lose their appeal once the first rush has passed.
