Aries - The Personality Traits of the Aries
21 March - 19 April.

A typical Aries has a strong, active body and mind. Aries babies usually walk and talk early, but can be lazy. Attention seekers who like to be in charge, Arians can have a temper when thwarted.

Your Aries baby will be generous with toys and have a vivid, practical imagination. With an inexhaustible curiosity, young Arians can achieve a lot in a short time. An Aries baby is usually very affectionate.

Raising an Aries baby can be challenging as they are usually very determined to do things their own way. Saying 'no' to an Aries baby will not necessarily work, nor will persuasion, coaxing or offering examples of good behaviour. Most Aries children are very direct about their likes and dislikes. Perhaps the best way to coax an Aries baby into action is to create a challenge and the young Aries will need to prove that he is better than anyone else.

Aries children love adventure, trying most new things, solving problems and taking charge. However, emotionally they can be a little fragile and will need a lot of reassurance and to know that they are loved.

There is a danger that Aries children will react against authority at school. You will need to teach them to obey, perhaps by making it into a challenge. Arians need to be guided rather than ordered about, and they recover quickly from setbacks.

A typical Aries baby is healthy and quickly recovers from any illness. They are, however, prone to accidents, particularly to the head.
