You're a leader or a loner, never a follower. You're a natural at starting things, but need great self-discipline - or a good assistant - to finish them. A fighter against injustice and champion of the underdog, you're also an incurable romantic. Learn to balance your fearlessness with caution.
If you're a first-decan Ram, Born March 21st - 30th, you have a double dose of Mars energy that makes you even more idealistic, romantic and restless than other Aries. Pace yourself so you don't become a shooting star who lights up the skies but burns out much too soon.
If you fall in the second decan of Aries, March 31st - April 9th, your sub-ruler, The Sun, gives you a steady flow of mental and physical energy. A performer who seeks the spotlight and craves aplause, you would find it difficult to go through life without a mate.
If your birthday is April 10th - 19th, you're a third-decan Ram influenced by jupiter, planet of philosophers and flirts. You love to travel and learn, and you have a wonderful sense of humor. Your approach to love is lighter than that of other Aries, and you have a harder time settling down.
