Aries; Always Picked On

I am an Aries.

I am the first sign of the zodiac. And I am continually picked on through Facebook posts written, I assume, by non-Aries...

Here are some of my traits (says the internet):
Aries Strength Keywords:- Independent
- Generous
- Optimistic
- Enthusiastic
- Courageous
Aries Weakness Keywords:- Moody
- Short tempered
- Self-involved
- Impulsive
- Impatient

Like anyone else, Aries has good and bad traits. Right? This is no surprise. Or is it...

Here's a little more-- I am cheerleading myself early before I go into how we are apparently viewed by those horoscope Facebook sign makers...

Aries and Independence:Aries personalities are independent. Being the first of the zodiac signs, they venture out and are go-getters, often leading the way. Their upbeat and magnetic personality often entices others to follow their lead because Aries personalities bring excitement into others lives.
Aries and Friendship:Aries are good friends, they always look out for their friends with caring and generosity and will protect them should the need arise and encourage them with their natural optimism. If confronted, Aries can turn to be quite childish, they will fight back with their agressive nature and are known to have temper tantrums should they not get their way.
Aries Deep Inside:Underneath the strong, independent surface may lie insecurity. This is due to the intense drive to succeed and Aries put too much pressure on themselves, thus resulting in self-doubt however, the natural optimism and enthusiasm overtakes this and the underlying insecurity may never be known to others.

That last one explains a bit, huh? All my whining on blog posts...

Anyway, those descriptions are pretty right on, I must say. I am an independent gal with a temper and an extreme sense of loyalty. I'm also a lover of group gatherings, my friends around all the time, and I have a huge drive to get things done. Bring an Aries to a party and things will start poppin'!

Want things to go crazy? Just add Tequila. Fun and wild, yes we are.

Right then, here comes the slander...

  Now, this one is just rude. 3/4's of the list are nice things and good traits. People on those categories are all smiles and happy days. But the first one? Aries goes there. We must make it terrible! I mean, don't believe in us? Well thanks for pushing me towards depression. "Nobody likes me, everybody hates me, guess I'll go eat worms."  Plus, we are great leaders, so in an emergency, you want us around. We will strong arm our way through opposition, our mind on the goal, and pull everyone along. I'm not kidding--my gumption is rising just thinking about it. But did that make the list? Nooooo.  We are huge encouragers. I have often gotten people started on a new venture. Very often. As in, every time someone is contemplating something, I get excited thinking about a way to do it. Sometimes I'll even join in--new things are fun things. But did that make the list? Nooooo.     Holy hades! We have a crazed, finger waving, glasses wearing, fuzzy-haired woman as our mascot, and Capricorn gets a super model?? Now, how is that fair? We have pretty people on our side--       Okay, yes, he is a terrible example. Asshole with a capital "A". But he was hot in Gladiator, am I right? That role totally worked for him. Still, we do have some awesome-sauce in our line up! 




Reese? She's super sweet. Okay, the issue with the drunk driving was a little out there, but that's just because we like to party. And she totally apologized.

Jenn? Sweet little Jenn? Constantly dumped? She's one of America's sweethearts. No one having staying power with her is not because she's an Aries. Actually, it's obviously because they are not good enough. Point to us.

And the other Jen--I didn't even know she was an Aries. I mean, yes, she can kick some major ass, but so sweet!

And that chick from Harry Potter? Smart, talented and pretty, that one. Only one from HP that is going to make something huge of herself, just you wait.

See, we have a good roster of smart, pretty people. Why all the digs on us?
   


Keep it up Facebook sign makers, and I'll make this gum-drop dream a reality.


 Let's just even the score, shall we? Here is a real horoscope:


 Boom!
