Aries, the Ram, is the first and most elemental
of the twelve signs of the Zodiac, representing the beginning of
all things, much like the warm swelling in your tummy signals on
oncoming belch.
Aries symbolizes the will and the ego in
their purest form, meaning that many Aries are totally insufferable.
Like young children, Aries tend to be spontaneous,
frank and open but, unlike young children, only a small percentage
of adult Aries require assistance in zipping up their pants.
Aries do not seek approval to bolster their
egos but rather demand that others pay attention to them as they
know the value of what they have to offer –at least that’s what
they think. The rest of us are forced to smile along helplessly
in their demanding presence.
Aries feel a strong need to explore their
physical limits, meaning that the 40 year old you saw forcing children
off the teeter-totter at the playground was most likely of this
sign.
Aries tend to prefer action to contemplation,
which explains why so many of them, confused by the variety of colors,
simply blow through intersections no matter what the signal.
At best, Aries can be truly original thinkers
and pioneers but, at their worst, they can be some of the biggest
pricks on the planet.
