An Aries woman's personality traits
Aries women are the ignition, sparking life wherever they invest their energy. There is rarely a dull moment around them because they are constantly re-inventing themselves and looking for the next big thing. Aries women don't ask for permission to pursue their desires (unless they’re being cute and really like you).
They are foolish—foolish to love, foolish to take risks, and foolish to the great unknown. It is exactly this foolishness that leads them to live a life that far surpasses the expectations of others. If an Aries woman wants to start a new project or become a reality TV star, she’ll just take the steps to go ahead and do so. Like all of the fire signs, the world is her playground.
The best matches for an Aries woman
So, you want to know which sign is the best match for an Aries woman? Cool—the real answer is whoever she wants it to be! Aries is a very headstrong zodiac sign, which means when she really likes someone, there’s no telling them not to pursue them.
Now, astrologically speaking, my favorite matches for an Aries woman are Leos and Libras (*psssttt* it’s okay if this isn't their Sun sign—a Sagittarius with Venus in Leo is a great match for an Aries, too!). A Leo will know how to naturally woo Aries. Their confidence and bold personality stand out, and that’s hot to Aries! Libra and Aries also make a great coupling. When in love, Libra will go above and beyond to ensure their Aries partner's needs are met.
The worst matches for an Aries woman
On the other hand, Aries might not be too into Capricorn and Cancer. Capricorn is just way too practical for Aries' spontaneous personality, while Cancer's sensitive feelings and Aries' impulsive outspokenness can clash. Of course, if Aries is really into one of these signs, they will figure out a way to make it work—Aries is nothing if not determined! Pisces can go either way. In some cases, these two signs are so different that they have nothing in common; but in other cases, they can learn a lot from each other. Similarly, Aries and water sign Scorpio have a lot of differences, but their shared ruler, Mars, means they'll likely have some hot sex—even if they don't work out as a long-term romantic couple.
Sex with an Aries woman
When Aries shares themselves sexually, there's a contrast from how they typically share themselves. They're usually particularly expressive and filled with energy, but become a bit more sensual and sultry in the bedroom. Aries believes that sex should be a soulful and passionate affair, one that requires sharing all of themselves with another person at that moment.
Of course, their sexual experiences aren’t always so revered. Aries enjoys the playful aspect of sex just as much as the next person. And once they’ve established solidity and confidence with their partner, Aries’ sexual interests can be very fun. They enjoy dressing up, using props, roleplaying, and trying new activities out in the bedroom. The key to sex with an Aries is ensuring that both parties are enjoying each other.
Needless to say, Aries does not want to settle for boring sex. They need sensual experiences that wake them up out of their mundane life. It’s easy for Aries to go into flight attendant mode when going through life and work, so when they enter the bedroom, they would rather not experience a snooze fest!
An Aries woman's romantic relationships
Aries is sometimes thought of as a little bit flaky, but that's only because most people are way too boring for her. Why would she settle down with someone she's not 100% sure about? Aries is perfectly happy being single; in fact, she'd rather be single than in a relationship that doesn't add anything positive to her life. But when she meets the right person and falls in love, an Aries woman is all-in. Their truest desire is to be in love, even though that can be a little scary for them. Seriously, tying down an Aries requires being interesting enough to keep them into you (also, it probably won’t hurt to learn shibari).
An Aries woman in love
When an Aries woman is in love, she you to join her in the adventure that is her life. Aries have a playful nature, a strong sense of curiosity, and seemingly endless reserves of energy. She's just so fun to be around! She doesn't want to stay at home on the couch; she wants to discover new things with you. BTW, this is why Aries clicks so well with fellow fire signs and air signs—they're the zodiac's extroverts.
A date with an Aries woman
Aries craves adventure. The typical dinner and drinks can be a bit of a snooze to her...unless it's, say, a horror movie and a speakeasy. Whatever you plan for your date with an Aries, choose something exciting and unusual, something that gets her adrenaline pumping. Another way to woo an Aries is to appeal to her competitive side. Even if you're just bantering over a game of pool or darts, adding an edge of competition to your date will make it all the more exciting. And BTW, don't let her win—she wants to win fair and square!
An Aries woman's friendships
An Aries woman might attract a wide circle of casual acquaintances—buddies from her softball team, coworkers she likes to gossip with, pals from her neighborhood bar. Everyone wants to be friends with an Aries woman—she's just so fun and exciting to be around! But those who prove their loyalty and stick around for the long term get to see another side of her: Her deep loyalty, caring nature, and sensitivity.
A gift for an Aries woman
Aries are all about experiences, and she'd rather take a weekend getaway or sign up for a dance class than get something physical. If you do want to get her something that you can wrap up in a box, try getting her an accessory for one of her hobbies, or an upcoming vacation. Think: New luggage, new ice skates, new workout gear... you get the idea.
All about Aries women
Aries makes the beginning of spring, which makes this sign a crowd favorite. After the end of winter, Aries energy comes as a relief. These fire signs are born during a time when the flowers are beginning to bloom and the weather is beginning to heat up. Sometimes called "the baby of the zodiac," Aries represents emergence and excitement.
When Aries have the opportunity to begin a new quest, they’ll go after whatever sparks their curiosity. This sign doesn't know about the restraints and harshness of the winter seasons, but Aries do value boundaries. While Aries appreciates their freedom, they find that the best experiences come with life lessons for next time. And as Aries get older, they begin to value experiences that encourage them to be more patient.

Life experience has taught Aries that sometimes it’s important to put up a little bit of charming resistance before flinging themselves into a new partnership or venture. That being said, Aries can become easily exhausted, especially after diving into unfamiliar territory.
Aries are naturally a little defiant—they don’t just take orders from anyone. This means they’ll be quick to put up a little fight and even behave like a brat. Keep in mind, this is actually Aries showing their vulnerabilities! Aries is a zodiac sign that likes to remain in control. Relinquishing that control means letting someone see their most tender and delicate parts and having to wait for their response.
One way to appeal to Aries is by tapping into their unspoken desires. Warning: You’ll probably have to build their trust before they let you explore their most sacred of fantasies. Once they do though, deep kissing, tickling, and massages are all areas of experimentation that Aries enjoy dabbling in.
