Sun Signs and Love: Attracting an Aries

If you're hoping to attract an Aries romantically, be prepared to seize the opportunity. The fiery Aries doesn't appreciate timidity. If you're attracted to an Aries, let him or her know immediately. Don't worry about appearing too forward. For an Aries, a compliment is always well received and even expected. But since this sign is famous for its ability to spot insincerity, make sure you're honest about your attraction. Laying it on too thick is one of the fastest ways to lose an Aries.

As fiery and physical as Aries usually is, they need more than physical attraction to enter into a relationship. They enjoy lively discussions and debates, so a dinner and a movie may not necessarily be the best first date. Consider something involving the theater, music, art,, history, culture, or even a sporting event if your Aries is interested in sports. If you don't know much about the subject matter, let knowledgeable Aries explain it to you. An Aries has the ability to make these explanations fun an exciting.

If you're going to date an Aries, rest up. They don't really watch the clock and continue the fun until the fun wears off. This can make for some late nights. Aries also tends to gain more energy as the evening wears on. The term 'second wind' definitely applies. In fact, expect Aries to have a 'third wind' and maybe even a 'fourth wind'. And they'll expect any romantic partner to keep up.

Aries is a problem solver in the take-the-bull-by-the-horns kind of way. This means that they welcome the opportunity to offer advice. And unlike some of the more flighty signs (Aquarius comes immediately to mind), the advice from an Aries is usually quite practical. They're also incredibly generous with their time, advice, and even money, so a typical Aries can not only offer a solution but help execute it. This can come in handy, so don't be afraid to go to Aries for help even if you're at the very beginning of your relationship.

A relationship with Aries can be fun, exciting, and entertaining, but there's also a welcome practical side to the relationship. Just don't try to dictate to a true Aries. They'd don't appreciate it. In fact, Aries even has trouble following orders they want to follow. If you're willing to let powerful Aries take the lead, a romantic relationship with this sun sign can work in your favor.

Sun Signs and Love: The Aries Man



The Aries man is full of fiery emotions. In fact, he has few other kinds of emotions; every one of them blazes bright and hot. He has an adventurous nature and is always on the lookout for excitement. And it finds him. Or he finds it. Either way, life around an Aries male is rarely boring.

In love he is both aggressive and attentive. He's hard to say no to, and most don't want to. Virile and attractive, he works to keep things original. As exciting as an affair with the blazing Aries might be, these affairs are usually depressingly brief. Aries likes novelty and change, so expect him to flit from relationship to relationship.

At first. There is a deeper side to an Aries man than is immediately apparent. He's actually on the lookout for the perfect woman, his perfect mate. This man will keep prowling until he finds her, and keep discarding those who don't measure up to his ideal. When he finds his mate, he will devote himself to her with all the fierceness Aries is known for. But he can't stand deception and if he finds he has been taken advantage of, he'll bypass being hurt and move straight to anger. Beware an angry Aries.

Aries, as the first of the sun signs, cannot take a passive role in love. He will run the show both in the bedroom and outside of it. He simply cannot bear to leave the decisions to another and that will not change easily, if at all. Fortunately he's upfront about this from the beginning. Aries is blunt and to the point, so he won't pretend to allow another to control him. He's refreshingly honest in a forceful sort of way.

He's also incredibly rash, almost to the point of having no control over his raging emotions. If he wants you, he wants you. If he loves you, he loves you. And this man will go to the ends of the earth to attain what he wants, what he loves. He doesn't worry about the consequences, even though you might. He occasionally needs reigning in, and this is no easy task.

A relationship with an Aries man will be full of energy, excitement, and magnetism. No matter how long it lasts, it's sure to be a time full of passion and adventure.

Sun Signs and Love: The Aries Woman


Intensity is at the very core of an Aries woman. She is exciting in love and can be forceful, independent, and...well, imagine putting a match to a stack of dry kindling. The result could easily be the nature of an Aries woman in love. She is fiery, sensual, active, unpredictable, and utterly fascinating.

And she is domineering. When it comes to love, it is her way or the highway. What an Aries woman wants, she eventually gets. When she meets a man (or a woman) she wants, she'll stop at nothing to have him. And though she needs love, she will never allow a man (or anyone else) to dominate her. She gives exactly what she gets, so if she get loyalty, she gives loyalty. If she is met with deception...let's just say no one can match an Aries woman when it comes to this particular game. She will always come out on top.

An Aries woman can be jealous, but only because she doesn't share well. She wants all of her lover, and sharing him just won't happen. Her jealousy isn't the result of insecurity, but is merely a reflection of the position she must have in a romantic relationship. In other words, she must be the first priority, not the last. Anything else will drive her away.

If you want a one night stand, don't bother with an Aries woman. She is looking to find happiness in a long term relationship. Though highly affectionate and sentimental, she won't let these qualities show at first. You have to tease it out of her, but once you do, once you get her to let you in, she will be a lifelong friend and lover. Her ambitions know no bounds, making her the perfect companion for someone with equally high ambitions.

She will not tolerate neglect. This might make her seem a little demanding, and she is, but only because she wants a fulfilling relationship, not one where she never sees her lover. Be prepared to dedicate a fair amount of time to an Aries woman.

Above all, the Aries woman wants to be understood and appreciated. She likes to be admired. If you can give her what she needs, the Aries woman will do anything you ask.

The Astrological Sun Signs: The Details of Pisces

The twelfth and final of the sun signs is Pisces, and those born between February 19th and March 20th are under its influence. Pisceans are romantic, imaginative, and adaptable, but they are also highly unpredictable. Pisces is a complex sign, so understanding it means looking at the little details that make up this astrological sun sign.

 
The Pisces Personality

 
Most Pisceans are mystical, intuitive, receptive, and impressionable. Sometimes too impressionable. If you're a Pisces, you may find that you have a hard time saying 'no' to people, even when they're asking too much of you. The emotional side of you wants to help, regardless of personal cost. This means you often get yourself into undesirable situations. Luckily, your imagination and intuition come together to extract you just as quickly.

 
Pisces is rules by the planet Neptune. In ancient mythology, Neptune was the god of the sea. The sea is mysterious and deceptive, giving most Pisceans these traits as well. Neptune is the planet of glamour and illusion, so those born under the influence of this planet are quite good at appearing to be other than they are. This means that a true Pisces can adapt to any situation and rarely appears out of place.

 
The symbol of Pisces is two fish which are tied together while swimming in opposite directions. This somewhat contrary symbol signifies shifting emotional currents, conflicting desires, and extremes. Pisces tend to move from one extreme to the other with disturbing fluidity and without giving much advanced notice of the shift. This can confound friends and family, but it is simply the nature of Pisces. The fish also symbolize hidden depths, and many Pisces are indeed deep people who can be a pleasure and a pain to fully explore.

 
The glyph, or written symbol, of Pisces represents the two fish. This glyph is two crescent moons connected by a straight line, which is what connects one fish to the other. It can also be seen as human feet, which is the part of the human body that Pisces is most closely associated with. Either way, the glyph represents emotion and higher consciousness, but these things are tied to and limited by the material world. These limitations are accepted graciously by the typical Pisces.

 
The Correspondences of Pisces

 
The sign of Pisces rules the feet. Because of this, Pisceans may have lovely feet and toes, but these feet tend to be plagued by aches, bunions, corns, and heightened sensitivity. Good shoes are important and can help alleviate some of these problems.

 
Friday is considered the luckiest day for the average Pisces, and the numbers two and six tend to hold the most power. Aquamarine, a stone that enhances occult powers and brings serenity to the mind, is connected to the sign of the fish. This semi-precious stone is connected to the sea and is often worn for protection by those traveling on or over bodies of water.

 
Some other correspondences include:
  • Pale green, turquoise, and other colors associated with the dreamier qualities of the sea
  • Cities such as Alexandria, Casablanca, Dublin, Lisbon, and Seville
  • Countries such as Portugal and the areas in and around the Sahara Desert
  • Fig and willow trees
  • Flowers such as jonquil, water lily, and white poppy
  • Platinum
  • All fish and other sea-dwelling creatures
Many of the defining qualities of Pisces are connected in some way to emotion or intuition. These are great qualities to have, but because Pisceans are easily influenced by others, peer pressure can be hard to handle. Many born under this sign experiment with drugs or alcohol only because friends or other acquaintances encourages them to do so. Pisceans are also drawn to the unpredictable and unbalanced, and this often lands them in trouble throughout their entire lives. Still, it's not usually serious trouble, and they can usually extract themselves without too much difficulty.
