Aries: Preferences

Aries zodiacal signs explained

In clothing, movement is essential to you, so comfort takes precedence over fashion. You have an athletic physique, so you like to show it off with simple duds—shorts, T-shirts, warm-up suits, loose-fitting tops—anything that won't confine your motion, really.

Your favorite color is definitely red, the color of Mars and fire. Shades of red, brown, and yellow also appear, but nothing beats red for you.

You like your cars fast and sporty. A vehicle that defines the same athletic characteristics of your body is the preferred choice. It must feel good to drive, handle with agility, and accelerate with gusto. A red Corvette, Porsche, or 300-ZX is quite common with Aries drivers.

As for food, you prefer meat. It's red, it's substantial, and it's usually cooked over a flame (barbecuing appeals to all fire signs). Other reds also figure into your diet, such as spicy, peppered foods like curries and chiles (fire again) and tomato-based foods like spaghetti. Even with desserts, red fruits appear: cherry, strawberry and raspberry-flavored cakes, yogurt, and ice cream, as well as apple pie. Your ideal beverage, of course, is red wine.

You don't spend a lot of time at home, since you're always jetting from this activity or that, but the way your home looks is quite important to you. Its design and decor will reflect your strong independent streak, so you won't display a middling, run-of-the-mill taste, or calm, pastoral colors and images. You prefer strong, bold lines—in furniture and layout. Frilliness and gentility are nowhere to be seen. Your most likely motif is modern, perhaps even futuristic, with lots of high-tech touches like big-screen TVs, computers, and other gadgets. (In fact, you always appreciate a new toy as a gift.)
