They welcome challenges and will not be diverted from their purpose except by their own impatience, which will surface if they don’t get quick results. Aries are often very brave leaders with a genuine concern for those they lead. They are very responsible people, Aries are always people that are delving into new ideas and new projects.

Aries Facts

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, and that’s pretty much how those born under this sign see themselves: first. Aries are the leaders of the pack, first in line to get things going. Whether or not everything gets done is another question altogether, for an Aries prefers to initiate rather than to complete. Do you have a project needing a kick-start? Call an Aries, by all means. The leadership displayed by Aries is most impressive, so don’t be surprised if they can rally the troops against seemingly insurmountable odds — they have that kind of personal magnetism. An Aries won’t shy away from new ground, either. Those born under this sign are often called the pioneers of the zodiac, and it’s their fearless trek into the unknown that often wins the day. Aries is a bundle of energy and dynamism, kind of like a Pied Piper, leading people along with its charm and charisma. The dawning of a new day — and all of its possibilities — is pure bliss to an Aries.

Bloodstone

For those born under the sign of Aries, the traditional zodiac stone is the Bloodstone. Bloodstones are green jasper dotted with bright red spots of iron oxide. Legend tells us the Bloodstone, or heliotrope had the power to cause thunder, lightening, rain, and tempest. It has traditionally been believed that the Bloodstone brings its wearer consideration and respect, and guards him from deception. The bloodstone is used today in many ways. It is used to amplify the Universal Life Force to give its wearer courage, wealth, strength, victory, power, and strength in new enterprises. If you are an Aries, a Bloodstone should be in your pocket all the time. It will bring you respect and guard you from being cheated or deceived.

Bloodstone is an ancient and honored stone. In today’s world it is a “stone of courage” that will aid you to find creative ways to keep your life in balance. It also is being used to attract wealth.

SUMMARY

As one born under the sun sign of Aries, you have quite a few choices about which crystals are really right for you. The symbol of Aries is the Ram, and that’s both good and bad news. Impulsive Aries might be tempted to ram their ideas down everyone’s throats without even bothering to ask if they want to know. It’s these times when you may wish Aries’ symbol were a more subdued creature, more lamb than ram perhaps. You’re not likely to convince the Ram to soften up; these folks are blunt and to the point.

We suggest you use stones to enhance and balance your Aries qualities such as Bloodstone and Turquoise. You can also try crystals other authors recommend such as Monazite and Amethyst.
