The zodiac sign Aries is known to be an aggressive group of people who don't put up with anyone's crap. Stereotypically we are a group of people who are self-absorbed and very quick to lose their temper. Most people try to avoid an Aries because they feel that they are hardheaded and that they will attack them for doing little things or for getting on their nerves. I have always been told that Aries is the sign you think of when people get upset easily or whenever I'm scrolling through Twitter and those astrology accounts pop up, Aries is always the sign with underlying aggression to their answer.
This is something I have always found offensive in a way because I don't find myself an overly aggressive person.
I never felt that I really identified with my zodiac sign and I was upset at a young age that I didn't fit into this stereotype that I thought I should. Since everyone had always told me about the negative sounding aspects of an Aries, I never knew there was even a positive side to it. The negative and destructive aspects of the sign were always prominent.
While this can be true, I feel like there is so much more to this group that is seen by the world and the people who do not fully educate themselves on the qualities of the signs. Naturally, I find myself falling into some of the ideas of the Aries sign. I am a very stubborn person and I do like the risk-taking aspect that follows the stereotype. However, instead of the negative connotation associated with some of the qualities, I fight to find the positive even through these derogatory aspects.
While everyone finds the bad, I feel like this aggression associated with the Aries is something that I mentally have altered to make the understanding that I'm not aggressive, but I am strong and powerful. I am the type of person that will not let other people walk all over me. I stand my ground and make sure that I am confident and pushing to be the strongest one that I can be. I feel like along with this negative idea associated with the temperament of the Aries sign, it makes us feel like we have to hide the fact that we are who we are.
I'm proud of who I am.
Being an Aries has automatically made me stronger. I love that I have this sense of adventure and willingness to try new things. I may be stubborn, but I really just see it as taking a stand and being determined. When I set my mind to something, I make sure I go through with it. No one can change my mind because I know what is right for me and what I want to accomplish in my life. I feel like being assigned to this star sign has really helped me find myself. I am so appreciative that this has helped push me to become who I am today.
Yeah, we may be thought to be this crazy controlling and harsh type of person, but we also are the people who never give up, who see their goals at the end of the tunnel, and the people who are always open to new adventures and treasuring the way that it takes to get there. I am so thankful to be the person I am today, and I think that being an Aries just adds to the good parts of me. I hope all of the other Aries out there love themselves as much as I am learning to love myself. Happy Aries, season ladies and gents.
