Sun Sign Characteristics

What is a Sun Sign?

Ecleptic1As the sun travels around the earth once each year, it moves through all twelve signs of the zodiac, spending approximately one month in each sign. The sign that the Sun was transiting at the time of your birth is your Sun Sign. Astrology based upon your sun sign is a generalized outline of your individual astrological characteristics. The Sun is the most important influence in your horoscope, and in many ways determines how others view you. However, it does not take into consideration the astrological influence of the other planets and only by studying the entire birth chart can an astrologer begin to get a complete picture of your personality.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

AriesimThe first sign of the Zodiac, Aries demonstrates a restlessness and energy that gives the impression of someone exciting and vibrant. Their enthusiasm and optimism make them irresistible and natural born leaders who are determined to succeed one way or another. Aries are the “doers” of the zodiac but if success is not immediate they can become easily bored, giving them a reputation for not finishing what they have begun. Aries people are high-spirited, courageous, and independent – though they can turn sulky if they have to take orders. Generous to a fault, they love to help others in need – but often seek credit for their good deeds. Notorious for childish tantrums and taking offense at imagined slights, Aries must learn that they are not the center of the universe. As a lover, they are passionate and giving – preferring to be the pursuer and not the pursued!
