Mars rules one of the zodiac sign, Aries. It is the representation of distasteful power and starts at the spring equinox. In Aries, we can see the movement from prospective to concrete; from latent to dynamic participation. Initiative, wish, action and courage are aptly describing words for Aries.

Special qualities of an Aries personality are sincerity, passion and uniqueness. Aries characters are frank, act fast and talk instead of listening. Arians are very determined, and always strive hard to go ahead. Aries creates followers, and are severely independent; normally, Aries will not indulge in any unnecessary argument. Always Arians are campaigners for lot of issues and at times, loose battles. This special quality is because of their self-confidence in their efforts to make things sure for them.

Aries ideals are rational than religious. Principally people of achievement, Arians show small refinement or slyness. Honest and sociable, Arians take fast decisions, and understand thoughts easily. Swift brains, and also fast to anger, Arians are famous for their eagerness; and are quick to become proud.

Aries people have tough self image, and have the capability to think faster and live up to the situations given in a moment. Arians are good at calculating risks with the speed of lightning and decide consequently. A wise saying, “A straight line is the shortest distance traveled between two given points” fits Arians well. Arians are not the ones that waste energy and time in doing things in a round-fashioned manner. Arians usually hit the bull’s eye, even the first time and leave the place, when they are done with their work.

Few of the pessimistic characteristics of Arians peep from their claustrophobic defect in their composition. A lofty liveliness yield is due to the concern and apprehension in many Arians. Many times, this concern is so deep and insurmountable that the concern becomes the reason for abandoning a new endeavor or undertaking for the dread of letdown. Then, Arians readdress their force into something latest.

One more defect in the makeup of Arian is the apprehension for rejection. Refusal and denial are almost topping their fear lists. In case, an Arian is not sure of his/her acceptance, they would reject the other person first, in order to evade rejection. Arians believe that their defense lies in offense.

When it comes to the bright side of Arians, they are popular as generous people. Arians spend their efforts, empathies, time and money too. Arians are both physically and morally courageous and would support any person, they trust has been unfairly treated, or fight for any cause, they feel worthy.

In their careers, Arians would always take over the responsibility, and the usual or monotony is not meant for them. The mental and physical strength and energy, imagination, and originality of Arians need such type of work, in which they can use all these characteristics. Arians are either self employed or can involve in helping others. Arians are better in a place, from where they can transmit and give public views. Advertising, publishing, publicity, journalism, TV or radio, and so on are common careers or fields for Arians to succeed.
