Finding the balance between generosity to others and taking care of yourself is one of your major challenges. However, because it’s something you can control yourself, it is also something you can learn to resolve very quickly.

Some say that you were born into a particular sign for a reason; that is, if you are an Aries, you were born to discover the passion that comes with being a fire sign and to benefit from the energy associated with being ruled by the planet Mars. Yet at the same time, there is in every individual the need for balance within you as well. And your particular chart shows that, while it is essential you use your Aries enthusiasm to make the best of it. It is also important for you to discover that slower pace within you. This isn’t just about living slowly, it’s about being able to slow down so you can listen to and be with those you care about, whether it’s family or loved ones, or even those out in the world—friends or colleagues.
This discovery of this slower pace will also enable you to rethink certain elements of your life that have been a source of frustration. You may have kept trying to make things work when actually they aren’t meant to be that exciting. Or you may have tried to force them into being worthwhile when actually they aren’t. And the greatest gift you could give to yourself is to let them go.
Whatever the case, and the situations will appear from time to time, being able to say farewell to something that doesn’t suit you isn’t just wise, it may be the nicest thing you can do for yourself.
It’s unusual for an Aries to compare themselves to others, because being born under the first sign of the zodiac, you are always thinking about what you have done in the past, and your future goals. However, you care about those closest, and if they aren’t happy, you worry. What means most to them is that you care. That, alone, is enough.
Taking care of yourself may seem selfish, yet in order to be at your best, it’s an important variety of selfishness. Think of that each day, and when you can’t be bothered to eat properly, or do a little exercise, or get enough rest, recognize that not only is it a gift to you, it’s a gift to others as well.
Finding the balance between generosity to others and taking care of yourself is one of your major challenges. However, because it’s something you can control yourself, it is also something you can learn to resolve very quickly.
A long time ago, your mind set on doing something, going somewhere, or achieving one particular goal. But, despite your efforts, you’ve achieved nothing. Frustrating as this is, it isn’t about what you can actually do, but having a challenge that stirs you up. It’s about getting you doing, not getting it done.

Fiery Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, and being ruled by the warrior planet Mars, you are a forceful character who thrives on challenges in a range of forms. Each adds to your skills, wisdom, and, ultimately, patience. Your plants and flowers reflect that sharpness, from thistles to gladioli, and your spice is, of course, red chile. Your gemstones are red, too—ranging from ruby to coral.
