Why Are Aries So Sad?

Aries is the first zodiac sign in astrology. Born between March 20 and April 19, the zodiac sign of Aries represents Spring.

Aries is a Cardinal fire sign who is ruled by the planet Mars.

So, why are Aries so sad?

Aries, you can become sad when you jump to conclusions because of your short temper.

You don’t like to be told you are wrong Aries, and you can get upset easily when there really is no need to.

Don’t let your planet rule you Aries, not everything is love and war.

As the first sign in astrology, an Aries is like a youngster who is learning about life, and mistakes happen during these growing pains.

Optimistic and curious, an Aries is discovering who they are as a person, and they get hurt.

As toddlers fall down from time to time figuring out when to run or walk, they collide with things around them, including the emotions of people.

If you're an Aries, a lot of people don't understand who you are as a person and judge you based on your sign, but you can't blame them. Your fiery personality is the first thing to show.

Here are a few explanations of why Aries are so sad, per astrology:

1. Aries zodiac signs are often misjudged.

As an Aries, you are known for your strong personality traits, assertive or bossy behavior, and being impatient.

You also strive and love to be the best and be too nice sometimes, it comes off as fake. Which is why a lot of people don’t understand you.

Anyone hearing all that about their sign would make them sad, I get it, but it might not just be what others are saying about you makes you sad, it might be that it’s because of your competitive nature.

2. You love to win, and not everyone wants to play rough.

Aries is ruled by the planet Mars, which is the planet of war.

Mars is a malevolent zodiac sign, and being a ram, you can hurt others with your horns, maybe even yourself.

3. You get your feelings hurt easily.

Aries has to sometimes jump to conclusions and has a short temper.

You don’t like to be told you are wrong and you can get upset easily when there really is no need to.

Don’t let your planet rule you Aries, not everything is love and war.

Learn to control your anger and fear and to not push people away or you will end up regretting it and feeling sad for a while.

4. You have a lot going on beneath the surface.

You turn your thoughts inward when you feel negative but still wear a smile on your face.

We know you strive to be your best, Aries, but don’t beat yourself up about it.

If you dwell on it too much you could become selfish and could harm your relationships.

5. You don't like it when you have to wait.

When you become selfish when you don’t get what you want. Not everyone can have everything they want and you can make all people happy.

You can become sad when you become selfish because you are only thinking about yourself and not letting other people in.

6. Your insecurities can sometimes guide you.

This is something you don’t want to happen. Don’t let your insecurities control you, Aries because we all know that’s a downhill path leading to no good. You might get hurt and hurt others along the way.

7. You get sad when you've lost or failed at something.

This will make you very sad Aries because you are such a competitive person, and not everything is a competition.

You don’t need to get mad at your friends when they are doing better than you at the moment, that just makes you seem rude and inconsiderate.

8. You pushed someone away or let someone push you away.

You created an argument and were mad at someone and you hurt them with your horns and they aren’t willing to forgive you because of how much you hurt them or you let someone push you away because of your pride.
