Aries Characteristics and Personality Traits

Your Sun Zodiac sign may not best describe your personality features, your characteristics and general qualities that you bring to life. For many people, their Ascendant or its planetary ruler is the more obvious characteristic, or sometimes the Moon sign.

Your Sun sign, rather, says more about the direction you should be moving in, to make the contribution to humanity you were born to make, and thus achieve a degree of personal fulfilment.

Fundamentally, Aries personalities function is to be the initiator, the one who gets things started. In the northern hemisphere (where the myths surrounding astrology arose), the Sun enters Aries at the spring equinox. Nature is coming to life after its winter slumbers, and manifests great energy as new growth pushes up out of the earth.

Therefore, Aries personalities are to get things moving. The contributions all the other signs have to offer depend on someone providing the initial impulse. Aries is a fire sign, and fire has to do with inspiration and imagination. Your aim is to bring these qualities into life and act on them.
