Who you are with the Sun in Aries
Your Sun in Aries gives you a direct, fast-moving nature. You act first, learn by doing, and are at your best when you have something to start or someone to champion. You are honest to a fault, and people always know where they stand with you.
How it shows up in life
In work you want to lead, or to be left alone to move at your own speed. In love you are open and warm, and you need a partner who can keep up and does not mistake bluntness for coldness. Boredom is your real enemy, so you go looking for the next challenge.
Three things that help
Start things, then hand off what needs patience.
Count to ten before answering when you feel provoked.
Keep a physical outlet. Your energy needs somewhere to go.
Condition in the sign
Sun is exalted in Aries. The sign brings out its best side.
