Aries is the zodiac sign of drive, courage and new beginnings. If you were born between March 21 and April 20, you probably recognize the urge to take action right away, but also how quickly you get impatient when things do not move fast enough. The gemstones that suit Aries feed your energy and confidence, but also help you pace your fire and stay calm. Below you can read what characterizes Aries and which stones suit this sign best.

The Zodiac Sign Aries

Aries is known as energetic, brave and direct. People with this zodiac sign like to take the lead, love a challenge and go straight for their goal. They are honest, enthusiastic and inspire others with their drive. The flip side is that Aries is quickly impatient, can react impulsively and sometimes clashes harder than intended. Taking a rest often feels like standing still to Aries, while that is exactly what keeps the energy up. The main characteristics of Aries:

Fire: The Element of Aries

Aries belongs to the element Fire, which explains much of its character. Fire stands for energy, passion and action: it burns brightly, warms and sets things in motion. Aries therefore lives from willpower and always needs a goal to work toward. That is exactly why warm, activating stones suit Aries so well: they feed courage and confidence, while grounding, calming stones make sure the fire does not flare up into impatience and frustration.
