Aries Personalities

Aries Personalities

Aries personalities are famous for their personal drive and magnetism Before we can discuss some of the more famous Aries personalities it would help to have a working understanding of Aries basic characteristics
Aries are

1. Warm hearted
2. Concerned about appearances in the social and personal sense
3. Committed to what they believe in
4. Courageous
5. Born leaders
6. A bit headstrong

The first Aries myth is that their favorite color is red
The second is that they have a tendency to walk with their heads bowed slightly forward in front of their bodies Like most myths both have a grain of truth to them
The penchant for the color red is easy to see After all your ruler Mars nickname is the Red Planet In fact the Aries association with Mars usually lends an overall ruddiness to the Arian complexion Aries natives tend to become flushed when angry upset or embarrassed

With an Aries sun sign there is also a tendency towards head injuries and fevers This can also be true if you are not an Aries but have a preponderance of Aries signs in your natal chart or in your sixth house the house of health and service

All of this fiery energy lends itself to the direct bold and frank Aries personality When you want to know the unabashed truth turn to an Aries sun sign

Famous Aries
With their natural leadership ability and personal charm the list of famous Aries personalities is quite long Below are a noted few

Aries Gloria Steinem
Born March 25th 1934 Gloria Steinem is an American original Outspoken witty and sharp her now legendary 1962 piece in Esquire magazine gave voice to the constant female dilemma have a career or raise a family This preceded The Feminine Mystique by one year

Controversial to boot Ms Steinem has taken flack from both radical feminists and those who are completely against the movement In 2000 she sent tongues wagging again when she married David Bale he died three years later Through it all she has remained true to her pioneering Aries personality

Aries Marlon Brando
Marlon Brando born April 3rd 1924 is widely recognized as one of the most influential actors of all time His movies A Streetcar Named Desire and On the Waterfront brilliantly illuminate the Aries conflict between the need to show a tough exterior while concealing their own inner tenderness Outside of his film work he also was an activist for the civil rights movement and the American Indian Movement Marlon Brando died July 1st 2004

Aries Frank Serpico
A theme is emerging among our Aries personalities and its one of knowing when to take a stand and when to lead Perhaps no Aries to date exemplifies these qualities more than Frank Serpico Born and raised in Brooklyn New York on April 14th 1936 Frank Serpico wasnt looking for fame when he became a New York City police officer

During the early 1970s the NYPD was known for its rampant corruption something Serpico refused to have any part in He was shot under suspicious circumstances during a drug bust on February 3rd 1971 Not just shot in fact but shot in the face head trauma is usually indicative of an Aries sun sign

The bullet penetrated his cheek just below the eye until finally coming to rest at the top of his jaw Saved by an elderly Hispanic gentleman who happen to live in the apartment adjacent to the one being used by the suspects Frank Serpico went on to expose the corruption within the force

In 1971 he was hailed a hero given a gold shield by the police department and promoted to detective The awardwinning film Serpico starring Al Pacino is based on these real life events

Aries Mariah Carey
Admittedly songbird Mariah Carey did not have it easy Born in New York City on March 27th 1970 to a multiethnic family mom is of Irish decent dad is African American and Venezuelan Mariah endured racial slurs hostility and sometimes even violence This in turn forced the family to relocate numerous times before her parents finally divorced when she was three

Mariah however in true Aries fashion was and is resilient She had a gift and in 1990 the whole world would get a chance to hear it Throughout her tumultuous life and through the good and ill of stardom people the world over know that when Mariah Carey stands up to sing were all about to hear something pretty special

Putting It All Together
Whether you have an Aries sun or are another sign with numerous planets in Aries take inspiration from these famous Aries personalities Note that none of them had an easy time of it but because they were true to themselves their voice and their ethics they were able to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles If they can do it you can as well
