Aries governing planet is Mars.

The gems of Aries are amethyst and bloodstone.

Aries astral colors are red and white.

Aries best companions come from those born under the Sagittarius sign.

Aries is the head sign of the Grand Man, or Microcosm.

Aries is a cardinal, masculine, equinoctial, and movable sign, the positive pole of the Fire Triplicity, governing the head and face, the higher attributes being intuition and reason.

The Sun enters Aries each year on or about the 21st of March, and departs from it on or about the 19th of April. The Sun on entering Aries should be given six days before coming into full touch and action with the influence of the sign.

A person born between the dates of the 21st and 27th of March would not receive the full results of the sign's individuality, as he or she would be born when the Sun was on the edge of the sign. This is known as the Cusp, and its nature and impulses partake of the sign the Sun has just passed through and out from, and the nature will also partake of the attributes of the sign of the Zodiac in which the Moon is located at the time of birth.

Traits of Aries

Aries is called the sign of sacrifice. 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 Aries is intuition, and silent electro-magnetic power by means of the hands. These people are large and true, but are apt to be children of caprice, which has a side effect upon their destiny.

They reach their highest attainment through knowledge and the regenerative love-action of the heart. 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 the sign of Aries develop quickly the gifts of the spirit. They understand without words the special trouble that is weighing upon the heart of a friend, and are frequently able to explain its cause and banish its effects.

Those born under the Aries sign have wills that 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.

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.

Aries people 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 executive ability of those born under this sign is so marked that they occasionally come to grief from an overestimate of it. They become inflated with success, and this develops a recklessness which leads to loss and disaster, and often to nervous prostration.

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. Many fine descriptive writers, novelists, and poets are found in this sign, and many excellent teachers.

The male Aries 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.

An 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.
