How to Choose a Gift for an Aries

The Mars-ruled Aries is adventurous, energetic, witty and confident. These born leaders derive pleasure from overcoming difficulties. The impatient Aries likes to get things done quickly and is highly ambitious. Since most Aries are courageous, they like to experience new sensations. Any gift that challenges the Aries would be a great choice.

Instructions

1. Decide which side of the Aries' personality you'd like to appeal to: the adventurous and energetic side or the impulsive and ambitious side.

2. Buy gifts that appeal to the adventurously-playful side of an Aries, such as skydiving lessons, auto-racing lessons or tickets to a sporting event. Visit your nearest auto-racing track to see what type of lessons are offered. Go to the local airport to inquire about skydiving lessons, or visit Air Sports Net online to find a school in your area. What may seem like an impractical gift would likely be a good selection for the dynamic Aries.

3. Select gifts that appeal to the impulsive side of an Aries, such as a how-to video for a new hobby, a digital camera, or a tennis racquet. You'll find a wide variety of sporting equipment online at Wilson or your local sporting goods store such as Hibbett Sports or Sports Authority.

4. Choose gifts that appeal to the challenge-loving side of an Aries, such as a sewing machine, a workbench or a big jigsaw puzzle. Hobby Lobby or Michael's craft stores have an array of sewing machines and supplies. Most Aries love new hobbies and learning new tasks.

Tips & Warnings

• Remember your Aries' birthday falls between March 21 and April 20. These spring months are perfect for skydiving and outdoor sports.
