Aries-Rats are a peculiar breed. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and is an independent, ardent, passionate, and fearless sign.
They have strong leadership skills and are self-assured as a fire sign controlled by Mars. They are, in a nutshell, the zodiacal versions of warriors and warrioresses.
Innovation, a creative attitude, resourcefulness, and self-leadership can be used to describe the Aries-rat. They are highly outgoing and enjoy the spotlight.
However, they also like contributing to initiatives that are actually advantageous for other people, a particular cause or group, the environment, or all of humanity.
The Aries aspects have a special air of confidence about them. However, this can occasionally lead to impulsivity, irritability, and violence.
These are a few of the shadow characteristics of an Aries. Rats have grace and good manners, which makes them endearing. This helps to counteract the "Martian" (Mars-related) side of Aries.
