Aries together basically makes life a giant competition. Who will be the most romantic? Who will be the dominant lover? Who will be the loser who has to do the dishes? Who will make the most money? Your entire relationship will be spent jockeying for power in every aspect of your life.

      ARIES AND TAURUS LOVE

      Aries will appreciate Taurus’s strength and conviction, and the Ram and Bull will be able to resolve their conflicts when they butt horns. Taurus will slow Aries down and Aries will liven Taurus up. The two will enjoy each other’s company in the bedroom and the rest is all details, right?

      ARIES AND GEMINI LOVE

      After an introductory stage—during which Gemini will overthink and second-guess whether or not dating the passionate, demanding Aries is a good idea—these two will settle into a routine that primarily involves going out to show off and then coming home to connect intimately. Both will be completely satisfied with this routine.

      ARIES AND CANCER LOVE

      Cancer doesn’t mean to be weak, but their natural sensitivity makes Aries want to put on his or her armor and come to the rescue. However, this imbalance of power in the relationship will make Aries resent Cancer, and Cancer will never really feel secure with an Aries for a mate.

      ARIES AND LEO LOVE

      These lovers bring out the best in each other. Aries is strong enough to be able to encourage Leo’s swelling ego, and Leo is hot enough to match Aries’s brightly burning flame. The only downside is that their super-hot sensuality comes across as über-obnoxious to their friends and family, and this couple may get the hose turned on them from time to time.

      ARIES AND VIRGO LOVE

      The more Aries looks at Virgo, the more his or her attraction fades away. Sad, but true. Even if Virgo is a good physical match, their desire to spray everything with Fabreeze and disinfectant is so sexually diminishing that Aries just has to walk away.

      ARIES AND LIBRA LOVE

      Libra treats Aries like a bedraggled orphan taken off the streets in a novel by Dickens. A love affair can begin as Libra is metaphorically combing the tangles out of the wild Aries’s hair and dressing him or her in clean and respectable clothing. Once Libra falls for Aries, the couple has a great chance of survival despite the harshness of the outside world.

      ARIES AND SCORPIO LOVE

      Flip a coin. Heads, you go to bed together and enter into what is definitely going to be the most gratifying and tumultuous relationship you’ve ever had; tails, you respectfully part ways and get on with your life. The odds of the coin flip are about the same as the odds of the relationship working, so this is really the only good way to figure it out.

      ARIES AND SAGITTARIUS LOVE

      An Aries and Sagittarius union is fun and exciting. This couple can have a wonderful time without needing to have “the talk” to define their relationship for a very long time, but eventually the Ram will want to make sure the Centaur isn’t shooting out arrows all over town.

      ARIES AND CAPRICORN LOVE

      The best example of how two signs' fatal flaws will clash. If they actually make it through the trip it will be a miracle, and when they get home and unpack their furniture, things will come to a head. Capricorn will insist that there’s a set of instructions in there for a reason, while Aries will be confident in his or her ability to find a better way to construct the furniture.

      ARIES AND AQUARIUS LOVE

      But what does it all mean, man? Aries and Aquarius will welcome one another’s assertions about the cosmos, the meaning of life, the true nature of love, and all sorts of other lines of philosophical inquiry. Their downfall as a couple will come about because they want to constantly get one up on each other… they should check in with themselves to see just how friendly their friendly competitions are.

      ARIES AND PISCES LOVE

      Pisceans keeps trying to get to know the real Aries, way down deep inside. Aries is like, “Sorry, this is it.” Pisces doesn’t understand that Aries puts everything out on the table and holds nothing back—there are rarely deep, dark secrets that need to be excavated.

      CAREER AND MONEY FOR ADVERSE ARIES

      Aries’s competitiveness can be put to great use in the workplace! If you can channel the aggressive attitude of a Ram, they can do an astounding amount of work. Their high energy keeps them going long after others need to recharge their batteries, and they are often the first ones through the gate on a new project. They love to be the best at everything they do and will actively seek out ways to produce better results than their colleagues. Aries are generally the people who come into work whistling, a full half-hour early, just to get an edge on their coworkers. Each day is a new arena and they can’t wait to spill blood and be crowned the victor.

      Aries is zealous about knowing the state of the state. He or she will subscribe to industry-specific publications, read up on competitors’ blogs, and may be the only ones who read those company-wide newsletters. They consume all this information to get an idea of the Big Picture and ways to improve themselves—in order to be stronger. They also read national publications, listen to public radio, and can tell you exactly what’s going on in the nation and the world. They are knowledgeable and may even evolve into downright, smug little know-it-alls, but they will take the time to share their information with others on their team.

      Aries is a smart, efficient delegator and really likes to be the one who gives out the orders. No one else in the zodiac takes more pleasure from having subordinates to boss around. Conversely, Aries can be uncomfortable if they find themselves getting too much input from their boss, and need to be recognized as the strategic genius they believe themselves to be. If an Aries is unhappy and mistreated in the workplace, they might actively sabotage projects. Their temper and need for control and independence can get the better of them, particularly when they’re very young and/or of a particularly low IQ. They can get incredibly frustrated with low-performing colleagues, particularly ones who offer up a host of excuses about why the job isn’t done. To Aries, anyone who says they need time to think something through is ultimately just being lazy. And then, for some reason, people think it’s rude when Aries tells them to their face that they are lazy, and so quarrels in the workplace may follow an Aries from job to job.

      ABSOLUTE WORST JOBS FOR AN ADVERSE ARIES

      Outgoing Call Center Employee: This job would bore anyone, but it may drive an Aries to stick pencils into his or her eyes. Ironically, they might actually be quite good at convincing people to buy whatever it is they’re selling, but the repetitiveness and the sitting down for eight hours, and that stupid little bell that the boss makes you ring when you get a sale—it would all just be too much for a proud, energy-filled Aries.

      Scientist: Aries aren’t always very bright, and they’re almost never detail-oriented. They could very likely wreck a carefully designed study by their lack of attention. Aries tend to multitask, and their inability to focus on what’s right in front of them might literally make their project blow up in their face.

      Politician: The problem with an Arian politician is that Rams simply don’t lie well. For a politician to be successful, he or she needs to be able to spin the truth in order to capture the most votes. Rarely will an Aries
