The Ram (March 21 - April 19)
The pioneering spirit of the typical Aries is the same spirit that settled the
United States. These are the people who set out in wagon trains across a vast
wilderness more than two centuries ago because they wanted to know what was
there. These are the type of people who conceived the NASA space program,
who will eventually colonize other planets. They are bold, courageous,
resourceful. They always seem to know what they believe, what they want from
life, and where they are going. Aries people are dynamic and aggressive in
pursuing their goals, whatever they might be. They are survivors. The challenge
with this sign is persistence. Aries people sometimes lose interest if they don't
see rapid results. But this tendency is compensated for by their ambition and
drive to succeed. They can be argumentative, lack tact, and have bad tempers.
On the other hand, their anger rarely lasts long.

These people often have ruddy complexions, arched brows, narrow chins, and
in men, profuse body hair. An Aries requires adequate rest and good nutrition
to replenish all the energy he or she burns. They shouldn't eat much red meat
and will benefit from herbs that belong to this sign (see above). Since Aries
rules the head and face, these areas are considered to be the weakest parts of
the body. Common ailments are tension headaches, dizziness and skin
eruptions.
