The moment you come across an Aries, the first thing that comes to your mind is her friendly nature. The friendliest person in your neighbourhood !!
Aries, the Ram, is the first sign of the zodiac, considered being the infant representing birth. Just like an infant, she is also aware only of himself and his needs. However, she is not selfish. It's just that she is totally ignorant of the fact that her needs may be causing you some inconvenience. 
The innocence of Aries people is enough to cover their, sometimes, aggressive behaviour. This naiveté brings fearlessness, while at the same time making them highly vulnerable. She trusts people easily, gets hurt in the process, forgives and forgets, and then, trusts again. 
An Aries person is beyond shrewdness and fallacy and can never lie, not even to save her life. She is what she seems to be. Qualities like subtlety, diplomacy or modesty just don't gel with Aries symbol. An Aries can be calm, wise and serious, but not before she has gone past youth. She is pretty impatient, but liberal with money and material things. Frankness, lack of stability, fear of physical pain, optimism and impulsiveness are some of the basic Aries characteristics. People having an Aries profile cannot tolerate injustice, always fight against it and will defend the weak. 
One of the warmest and the most generous zodiac sign, Aries always prefers fame to money. She may get extremely angry in a minute, but the anger seldom lasts for a long time. Aries people never nurse a grudge and completely forgive and forget. They will never let you know that they are hurt. 
They are never shy of apologizing, but they will be hurt if you remember the harsh words they said in anger, but didn't mean. Gossip does not interest an Aries and for her, people are either black or white, without any shades of grey. 
There is one thing an Aries can never fall short of, conversation. She can speak about anything & everything under the sun. She lives in the present and is a realist, yet believes in miracles. Aries chase success, not waiting for it to fall in their lap, and don't accept defeat. Failure can never keep them down. 
If an Aries does something for you, don't forget to express your gratitude. Otherwise, she will be deeply hurt. However, that would not stop her from helping again. Aries usually stick to their opinion and won't listen to anything they do not believe. They have a contemplative side to their personality. The simplicity is blended with the blind passion of a born crusader. Aries is mentally strong and always one of the pioneers.

So did you recognize some of my characteristics?!
Although I’m not a strong believer in horoscopes … Surprisingly accurate. But as always it’s a question of perception, right?!

Thank you, Nicole for your wishes!

I personally think that it is pretty much as I am. I'm always surprised at something like this, a text that represents an astrological account of a personality... Hard not to believe or give credit to!
Thanks for your comment!
