Projection of Your Real Self
Sometimes showing the world who you really are is not easy, and sometimes the world may not respond as you had hoped! It's helpful to take a look at the differences and similarities between the attitudes, impressions and images you project and the person who resides at the core of your being.
With the Sun in Aries your independent way of thinking and doing things may be quite powerful. Your ego self is driven by a need for autonomy. You need plenty of room to move, and the idea of being penned in makes you feel unsettled. You simply do not like waiting, and prefer spontaneity to planned situations. You may also be more comfortable taking the lead, which can be daunting for some of the men in your life. Since your Sun indicates "who you think you are," you may realize that if you see yourself as autonomous, then situations in your life are more likely to develop which allow you to express yourself in a more self-determined manner.
Your Ascendant is the face you present to the world, and shows how others see you.
Your Ascendant, or rising sign, is Capricorn. Your image may be one of seriousness, and you may appear quite sedate and controlled in your behavior and attitudes. Your need for respect dictates that you follow the rules, and even though you might like to go to work in jeans and a t-shirt, you're more likely to show up in an impeccable suit, which looks quite nice on you, by the way. Additionally, your dry humor and solid reliability are always welcome.
Saturn, the planetary energy associated with your rising sign, is in Aries in your chart. This connection indicates that you may be very headstrong, and your need to take charge or maintain control is best expressed in situations which allow you to take a position of leadership.
Your Moon is in a semi-square aspect to your Ascendant, indicating that you may feel a little out of balance emotionally, and can have trouble separating your feelings from your thoughts and actions some of the time. There's absolutely nothing wrong with emotional sensitivity, but when emotional issues get in the way of your self-expression or clear thinking, then you can end up feeling rather frustrated. You may also be too sensitive to criticism from others. The key to working with this energy is learning to pull in your emotional boundaries: don't leave yourself open, and remind yourself that you are safe.
