You are the first sign of the zodiac, Aries, and that could very well be because you deemed it so! That's not true of course, but it is in your makeup to always strive to be first. You have an assertive and sometimes boisterous personality, and you always strive to succeed. Your fiery heart is often reflected in your equally fiery personality. You don't get along with everyone, but then again not everyone gets along with you - if you want to take that perspective. But those who understand your goodness and your depth - those who are worth your while - will always stick around to enjoy your many stellar qualities. You are straightforward, loyal, fearless, and a natural born leader. Your many wonderful qualities draw in those who are strong enough to handle you.

Love

Ah, love. In love, Aries often has a hard time settling in. Your spontaneous, unpredictable nature requires a very confident, go-with-the-flow kind of a mate. When you choose a partner wisely, your life is better, richer, and stable for it. But when you choose someone for the wrong reasons, and you wind up with the wrong kind of person beside you, your love life can be filled with fireworks - and not always of the good kind. You are very opinionated and ultra-competitive, and although you are not usually the one to start an argument, once you become engaged in one, it is no holds barred. When you argue, you are out to win, and that is not conducive to a love life that is particularly quiet. Last year may have been somewhat shaky and volatile where your love life was concerned. You probably fell into a more level state of mind, but you may not have been happy with the state of things, romantically speaking. In 2019, you have the power to turn that around, but it will require some adaption on your part. You are deeply sensitive, but you sometimes hide that part of yourself. This year, if you let your inner light shine more brightly, you will naturally gravitate to compromise, to giving in, and to letting go for the sake of a relationship. If you are attached, that will translate to letting your loved one know that softer, tamer side of yourself, and allowing yourself to be more vulnerable. That will be an excellent way to grow closer and to firm up the foundation of your love. If you are single, you need to open yourself up to allow a new romantic partner to see you, flaws and all, and to let them know what you truly want out of life and out of a relationship. In other words, don't play games. If you play hard to get, you won't get got! You have so many great qualities that a romantic partner can cherish. Allow yourself to shine and let your golden heart lead the way.

Family

When it comes to family matters, Aries, you are either all in or you want to avoid them altogether. It depends on your mood, on the issue at hand, and on the people involved. There are certain family members you feel especially close to, and then there are others you would like to stay as far away from as possible. That may be true with many people, but with you, it is especially pronounced. Last year, you may have experienced a fractured relationship or two. This year, you can mend whatever rifts began last year, and you can maintain a certain peace. Even if there are particular loved ones with whom you will never see eye to eye, you can create a peaceful existence that will enhance the rest of your family relationships. You are extremely loyal, and that works strongly in your favor where family is concerned. You are centered enough to recognize how very important family bonds are to you, and you will never let any argument go so far that it separates you permanently from anyone who is important to you. Carry on in your relationships with that always in mind, and you will do fine.

Career

Yours is one of the most ambitious signs of the zodiac. You are driven and determined to make your goals and your dreams come true. You won't exactly plow over someone to make your way to the top, but you can be quite assertive and hard pressing in the pursuit of what you want if you let yourself. This year, there may be an opportunity that places you in a position of competition with someone you know, and that could get a bit hairy where your relationship is concerned. Since you can be very forceful when pursuing your goals, you don't always stop to think about the delicate balance of your relationships that can be influenced by these actions. This year work harder at being more aware and more sensitive to co-workers, team members, and yes - even your competitors. You are in the process of building a stronger relationship in general now, and this will set a new precedent for what you expect of yourself. The more self-control you possess, Aries, the more empowered you will be to pursue any of your dreams with greater vigor and focus. This year could bring some very interesting and lucrative possibilities if you can display a more controlled, focused, even-tempered side of yourself. The sky really is the limit for you this year.
