Aries Rising – How Does It Shape Your Personality
So You Are an Aries Rising?
You propel yourself with unwavering energy and authority. You think and then act upon your thoughts at once. Sometimes this is great – it gets things done! At other times it gets you into trouble! Something drives you from within – it urges you to excel – to be the best! Second place is not for you, and you have to prove this simple fact to all you meet.
Intelligent and versatile in the expression of ideas, you thrive on being known for your originality and individuality. You need, however, to focus and concentrate your thoughts in order to bring them to fruition.
You have some tendency to choose a gentle, vulnerable marriage partner, and should be aware that your need to dominate can lead to strife in your relationships. Your forthright manner is often misunderstood and can cause difficulties in maintaining friendships.
However, you are capable of working well and establishing friendships within groups and especially with young people.
Your practicality and willingness to adapt make you adept when it comes to earning money, but keeping it is another matter, as your normal pattern is to spend it as fast as it is earned. You believe yourself to be lucky in speculation when in actual fact you tend to take more risks than most people.
When the risk pays off you congratulate yourself on being lucky – when it doesn’t – you don’t like to talk about it.
At work, you are careful and precise, yet you will often leave things unfinished through a lack of patience and persistence. Enthusiasm fires and wanes in equal measure, so you are not really suited to tasks that take sheer dogged effort over a long period of time. You need to be in a position where your talent for quick acting, quick thinking, and decision-making is valued, needed, and appreciated.
Never satisfied with the status quo, you suffer a lot of restlessness – always on the search for something better, something more! You remind me of a tiny baby who feels angry, confused, and rejected at being thrust into a hostile world from the comfort (the heaven) of your mother’s womb. Your whole life seems dedicated to proving that you were worthy to have remained there!
Aries Rising Personality
Individuals that are born under this rising sign are usually very confident and strong. They are very assertive when they need to be. This is all due to the ruling planet Mars. Which is also considered the planet of sexual attraction and War.
It is natural for them to view their life and world from the lens of being a doer, a visionary, and an action taker. These individuals are constantly on the move. They love to put any ideas that come to mind into action as soon as possible.
There is no doubt that people look at them as being very strong and courageous. Despite life’s challenges, when they’re faced with great adversity, they work hard to accomplish their goals. Because they can be quite stubborn and inflexible, some people view them as controlling or bossy. They don’t like to let others dictate what they should think or do; they want to make their own decisions. They want to be the Pace Setters!
It is easy for them to win over individuals quite easily with their confident attitude and witty personality. It’s not very hard for them to get people to fall in line. As a result of their authority, they make natural leaders.
Mars’ energy is intense and fiery, which makes them quite passionate in all areas of their lives. Whatever they want to put their mind on, they can put their hearts and souls into it.

- pronounced head

Aries Rising in Love
As far as love is concerned, these people are passion personified. They really embody the archetypes of lovers.
This has a lot to do with the fact that they show a lot of self-confidence, which is highly appealing to others. This allows them to conquer people’s hearts and emotions quite easily.
The fact of the matter is they’ll only enter into a relationship with somebody and commit to them if they are really attracted to that person. But for them to continue a partnership, the other person needs to give them plenty of room and space to breathe. That is the key to this relationship is that they need room.
Aries Rising Relationship
Just like in life this individual needs to appear like they are the boss or leader of the relationship. When they’re able to take charge in a relationship, they feel confident and secure.
Despite that, you shouldn’t always give in to everything they ask for. Because if they ever feel as though you are a pushover, they will start to lose respect for their partner.
Aries Rising Compatibility
Usually, they find compatibility with a Libra or someone with a Libra-like personality. By using a calm diplomatic approach, Libra can soothe and calm down the explosive emotions displayed by this individual.
This individual is also greatly impressed with the gentleness that the Libra shows. The only problem would be that Libra’s inability to assert themselves might bring Aries Rising to a boiling point.
Libra though finds that through them they learn how to be able to stand up for themselves. How they’re able to express their opinions without fear. And show that they can make decisions for themselves.
The individual of the ascendant of Aries should learn how to take a back seat and let their partner take the reins of the relationship for a little bit. The best part of this combination is that each of them challenges the other in their weakest areas.
