The Sign of the Ram Quiz | Astrology

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Aries is what kind of sign?

Answer: Fire

The other fire signs are Leo and Sagittarius.

2. If an Aries is looking for love, with which of the following signs is he or she most likely to be compatible?

Answer: Sagittarius

Generally speaking, Fire signs do best with other Fire signs and Air signs. There are, of course, many other factors that go into determining a good match besides the Sun sign, so the rule is a very general one.

3. If your sun sign is Aries, then Mercury in your chart could be found in what sign?

Answer: Taurus

Mercury is never more than 28 degrees from the Sun, so it is always found in either the sign preceding the Sun sign, the Sun sign itself, or the following sign. Thus Arians always have Mercury in either Pisces, Aries, or Taurus. Similarly, Venus is never more than 47 degrees from the Sun, so it can be found only in Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, or Gemini.

The other planets may be in any sign.

4. Which of the following is likely to be Aries' favorite color?

Answer: Red

Red is the color for Aries, as befits a fiery sign.

5. True or false: An Aries is slow to get started, but once he or she starts something, they are almost certain to see a project through to the end.

Answer: False

Er, uh, actually we are better at getting things started and letting others finish up and attend to the details. After all, coming up with the idea and getting the ball rolling is the important thing, right? This is only question 5? Oh, well . . .

6. Aries is said to be ruled by the planet Mars. Mars also rules what other sign?

Answer: Scorpio

How lucky Scorpios are to have something in common with us.

7. It is universally acknowledged that Aries men are the manliest males in the Zodiac. Which of the following stars is NOT an Aries?

Answer: Pee Wee Herman

Sharif (April 10), McQueen (March 24), and Beatty (March 30) are all Arians. Pee Wee, also known as Paul Reubens, is, appropriately enough, a Virgo (August 27).

8. Aries women are also pretty hot. Which of the following screen sirens is an Aries?

Answer: Lucy Lawless

Could Xena be anything else? Lawless (March 29) is all Aries. The other gals are all Leos.

9. Aries is definitely a musical sign. Which of the following composers was born under the Sign of the Ram?

Answer: All of them

Sondheim and Webber (both March 22) and Rachmaninoff (April 2) are all Arians.

10. It's hard to believe, but only two U.S. presidents have been born under Aries. One was Thomas Jefferson; who was the other?

Answer: John Tyler

John Tyler (March 29) became our tenth president when William Henry Harrison died shortly after his inauguration. Al Gore (March 31) is also an Aries, so perhaps we're fortunate that there hasn't been a third.

11. The Chinese zodiac does not use the same "signs" as Western astrology. Which sign in the Chinese zodiac is said to correspond with Aries?

Answer: Dragon

The signs of the Chinese zodiac are the Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig. Each sign in the Chinese zodiac is said to rule for an entire year. Recent "Years of the Dragon" include 1952, 1964, 1978, 2000 and 2012. So if you are an Aries born in one of those years, yo are doubly blessed!

12. If you have both the Sun and Moon in Aries in your chart, your Aries traits will be:

Answer: Intensified

In astrology, the Sun represents the conscious mind, the moon the subconscious. So if both "luminaries" are in the same sign, the traits of that sign are reinforced, especially if the two bodies are in conjunction, i.e., less than 5 degrees apart. So if both the Sun and Moon are in Aries, what you see is pretty much what you get. Alas, only one in 144 individuals is lucky enough to have both Sun and Moon in Aries.

13. True or false: Both Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock were born under the sign of Aries.

Answer: False

According to my information, Captain Kirk was born on March 26, 2233, so he's an Aries; but Mr. Spock was born on November 12, 2231, so he would be a Scorpio. The actors who portray these characters on Star Trek, however, are both Arians: William Shatner (March 22) and Leonard Nimoy (March 26).

14. When we are good, we are very, very good, but when we are bad we are horrid. Which of these nasty people had the nerve to be born an Aries?

Answer: Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier

"Papa Doc" Duvalier (born April 14, 1907) was the President of Haiti from 1957 until his death in 1971. He was not a very nice guy; he is estimated to have killed some 30,000 of his political opponents during his time in power. The others were Arnold (Taurus), Vlad, a.k.a. Dracula (Sagittarius), and Cromwell (Taurus).

As would be expected of the best of all possible signs, there have been remarkably few really noted villains born under Aries, but for the ladies there is Lucrezia Borgia (April 18).

Some sources say that Adolf Hitler (born April 20, 1889) was an Aries, but most say that he was a Taurus.

15. Everyone knows that Aries has a great sense of humor, as long as we are not the butt of the joke. Which of the following old time comedians was born under the Sign of Aries?

Answer: All of them

Marx (March 22), Arbuckle (March 24), and Chaplin (April 16) were all Rams, as well as a lot of other comedians, especially in the silent movie days. Aries tends to like broad (some say crude) humor. They also like to kid other people a lot, so if anything in this quiz has offended you, please accept my apology.
