Aries is the start of the Astrological year-- the sign of new beginnings. If you were born under this sign, you have a great enthusiasm and love to lead. You dare to rush in where even Angels fear to tread. Your ruling planet, Mars, and your color red says a lot about your temperament. Quick to anger but just as quick to move on, those that cross the Aries soul don't soon forget. People are immediately struck by your charm and dynamic personality-- though you do tend to become somewhat self absorbed. Once you get an idea in your head or a new project strikes your fancy, you want it to happen "yesterday." You naturally gravitate towards the center of action-- and if there is something big jumping off you can be sure to find an Aries in the thick of things. You have felt since childhood that you are destined for greatness -- and more often than not, you are right! Aries are, however, noted for their hot tempers... with a flash point that can boil almost immediately. Anyone crossing the Aries heart will not soon forget the experience-- even long after the Arian has long forgotten the episode. Aries also have a reputation for not finishing what they start. If success and recognition is not immediate, they tend to wander off in search of other forms of instant gratification. Being an Aries means have a very low tolerance for boredom. You also tend to spread yourself too thin-- starting 100 projects that soon end up discarded or with someone else at the helm. Independence is air to the Aries soul. Being second or even third is not what you signed up for! You want to be first-- and get there in your own way. Taking orders is not really your forte. Should you run up against a superior force, you will grudgingly bend-- but you refuse to break. You sometimes run a bit short in the tact department, but malice is not the intent. Aries tend to let things they are thinking slip out which can cause more than a few problems. It's an impulsive act -- You tend to speak without considering the consequences... but it is never done with the intent to harm. And you usually regret it later. You can be vain, impatient and sometimes too feisty for your own good...But you are also a creative force, open minded with a heart to match, high spirited and daring. ********* M3, texture from DAZ, Cyclotronica bought ages ago, no longer available as far as I know.
