Aries: do you feel you have good instincts?

I've always felt I have pretty good instincts about the true nature of most people. I feel like I can do a pretty good job of intrepreting their intentions, their honesty level and so forth?

All the time. It makes it difficult though as well...sometimes I see the true nature of people or the true source of their problems, problem is I let them know or try to point it out and they just aren't ready to hear the truth. I don't go around offering my advice and insight though to everyone I come across...you have to have a special place in my life before I consider if it's worth my time.

I have the same problem. My mother says I lack tact. Its just that I put things plainly without the sugar-coating, I guess. By the same tokien, I get told often by friends that I'm very "real", which I take as a very high compliment.

i usually like to give people the benefit of the doubt even if they seem odd at first lol they might be decent lol i like to look beyond first impressions and dig deeper haha i'm pretty curious like that.

you can still be real without hurting people's feelings. it's something i've been working on almost my whole life haha i use to just blurt things out but i think it takes a kind person to be tactful. 🙂 tact is just another form of kindness.

Yea...I usually see through people too.....it's a gift and a curse

Can we throw in the topic of intuition in here?.. it's sorta related.

Sometimes I feel very intuitive, I can call occurences, events, or people's emotional reactions to things beforehand.

Other times I experience a wave of emotion/intuitive feeling, but I don't know what I'm feeling or how to filter it, and its distracting. I feel almost, out of touch with something that's taking place that affects me.

Anybody have similar experiences?

I have definitely had this experience. I think we access and observe situations and other people very well.

Most of the gut feelings I have are correct.

Everyday

I actually make a more or less conscious effort to not put to much value in "first impressions." On the other hand, I do get a real feel for people much more quickly than most other people.

My aries is the same, but I am the complete opposite. I'm generally better at feeling out who a person is and their true intentions. Must be all that scorpio in my chart

Lol this is something aries and us sags have in common. Lack of tact, but we are genuine people. That's why I get along so well with the rams

Yep. Firm believer in gut instinct. I also am able to pick up weirdo vibes off of shady/strange/creepy people. Even if it's not so obvious, I pick up on it quickly after witnessing behavior.

I'm currently loling at the situation with this guy I've been seeing. My gut kinda told me that I had likely become booty call status with this guy- so I called him out on it. He apologized, but seems to be distancing himself by not making any effort to see me anymore. Whatever he wants to do, but it just proved to me that I was right.

The bit that baffles me is that I'll warn friends about someone- noting tendencies and how they don't seem to be very cool individuals. They won't listen and continue to be all BFF with this person.

Then they get burned. I just don't get why they ignore such things and continue on with someone all for the "fun" factor. I keep shady people at an arms length.

The times that it really blows my mind is when it's STRONG. Like first impression strong. I meet them and instantly get a weirdo vibe off of them. There was a guy I met one time- immediately creeped out by him. Couldn't figure out why. He seemed nice, but something about him didn't sit right with me. Within a month, his crazy showed and the guy was a piece of work.

The only time this is a pain in the ass is when I pick up on something about someone and can't figure out WHY. Those are the ones that take awhile to pinpoint. Drives me crazy.


I was never aware that this was an Aries thing. I always put it back on the Cusp thing and my pisces placements. :/

It is very important for Aries to follow their intuition.

Aries your intuition is right.

We are often described as naive. We have been given intuition for balance. However, the best vessel is that that is pure.

I consciously turned my intuition from subconscious to conscious. What helps it to say out loud to yourself what it is you intuit. Do not keep your intuition in your back pocket. Keep it in your hand.

It is difficult to separate it from our human flaws... recognizing the difference of intuition versus our day-to-day human thoughts and flaws. For me, it is a strong feeling/thought combo that comes out of nowhere loud and clear. I had to practice acknowledging it in order for it to become more discernible (louder and stronger)over time.

Intuition can be painful.

But, I have resigned to the understanding that it is more painful to ignore it. I got tired of the pain of not following my intuition at about 25. It made me really angry to "know" something and do otherwise. I made up my mind at that early age to follow intuition... as heartbreaking and disillusioning as it often is.... follow it, cultivate it.

Beautifully written. YES!! My whole life I've often "felt" things from people. It wasn't a negative judgement of what they looked like/sounded like/etc. It was just an intuitive gut feeling that I just "knew" how the person was. It's taken me a lifetime to honor that feeling. For me, I separate judgement and true intuition by how it feels inside of me. If it's a judgement there are thoughts attached and with intuition it's a pure "observation" with no feelings attached to it good or bad.

Couldn't figure the reason why I picked up weird vibes from certain coworkers who I have not witnessed any out of line behavior. Makes sense and kinda creeps me out pinpointing being right about them on what my intuition has been trying to say, thank you. I think you may have answered your own question as well, even if you do not witness any strange/shady behavior, a weird vibe can also say they like you, but in an entirely different, odd way portrayed and it's possibly to be in a negative context of hiding who they truly are.

Very helpful, thank you 🙂

P.S. Thought you grabbed it from a site cause it sounded professional!!!

we should have asked for mercury/pluto placements....can be very telling
