Born April 08
Some say the colour for Aries is white, others say red. April 8 is carnivorous cardinal red and you’d better watch out. Excellent at sport, many play at the highest level. And absolutely nothing gets in the way, not parents, loved ones, illness or politics. No weakness is allowed except in opponents, kicked aside as they run past without a backward glance. As tough as the men, the girls apply Spartan rules when they have kids. The house is perfectly run, and impressive. April 8 hates muddle, and doesn’t go for pastels, flowery things or lavish curtains which look as if they were nicked from the local hotel. At work, no quarter is given. This creature is Mars and this is war. They’ll pinch ideas, criticise opponents for being out of touch, fat, thin, nervous, too old, too young. All those ruses we know and hate and which are so astonishingly effective. This is a computer age advocate, joined at the nose to his screen, contemptuous of anyone who can’t manage the whole programme, but sticks, snail like, to the word processor slow lane. They are usually perfectly dressed and if they can afford it, the men wear Paul Smith and the girls favour a little Chanel mixed with the season’s hot Marks & Spencer’s line. Naturally they always know what it is first. April 8 loves her children, as do the men. But kids are really an extension of themselves and must excel. This person worries about her children not having enough of the right friends, right talents and it’s all completely exhausting for the young ones concerned, and frequently for their teachers. Don’t imagine they mellow with age. At 70 both sexes will still be looking over your shoulder for somebody more interesting at a party. And they’ll still ask who the other guests are before accepting a dinner party invitation. How do they get away with it? Power and money.
Body
April 8 loves pets but becomes panicky when they have accidents or seem unwell. It’s just as good an idea to use the famous Bach flower Rescue Remedy for animals as it is for human beings. It comes in liquid form, a few drops to be taken in water, or cream, which keeps wounds supple, speeds up the healing process and relieves pain. Many vets use the liquid form to help animals overcome the shock of strange surroundings, especially after accidents. It can be dropped into water or put directly in the mouth and will not interfere with any other medicine or treatment the animal may be receiving.
Mind
Those who devote themselves to the social round, judging others only by their appearance and usefulness, will find themselves so judged and the struggle to keep up as time passes, becomes, in the end, overwhelming.
