Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Agitated and a bit troubled this Saturday is going to be for you but more in terms of your health and mindset than in terms of practical endeavors.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Although you might feel the need to surround yourself with people alike and you might be all emotional about that in your circle of friends this doesn’t mean that you can find your better half like that if you are single.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You seem to weigh things properly this Saturday, be them practical decisions or things that are more abstract than real.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The current disposition makes you very flexible this Saturday, maybe too flexible I could say.

Therefore you risk entering into all kinds of situations that aren’t exactly, how to put it, convenient, for you at the moment or in general for that matter. So don’t be all naive and idealistic because this is not flexible but foolish.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

The advice for you today is to temper your outings in terms of the fun you seem to be searching around and to try and be more practical than idealistic.

This Saturday you have enough prospects to do some real work, around the house or similar and you risk jeopardizing that if you continue in this direction you are now set to.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

The current disposition will see you put face to face with your nemesis for a bit and you might have your emotions put down because of that. So you will in turn see the world in a negative way and expect only the worst.

Try not to be so moody as half of the things you think you are experiencing are just because of your imagination.

 The zodiac sign for April 13 is Aries.

 Astrological symbol: Ram. This symbolizes impulsivity and courage coupled with strength. It influences those born between March 21 and April 19 when the Sun is placed in Aries, the first zodiac sign to begin the zodiac circle.

 The Aries Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac, with the brightest stars being Alpha, Beta and Gamma Arietis. It lies between Pisces to the West and Taurus to the East, covering an area of only 441 square degrees between visible latitudes of +90° and -60°.

 The Greeks name it Kriya while the French prefer their own Bélier, however the origin of the April 13 zodiac sign, the Ram, is the Latin Aries.

 Opposite sign: Libra. In astrology, these are the signs placed opposite on the zodiac circle or wheel and in the case of Aries reflect upon effectiveness and orderliness.

 Modality: Cardinal. This quality exposes the affectionate nature of those born on April 13 and their support and practicality about most life situations.

 Ruling house: The first house. This means that Arieses are inclined towards initiatives and life changing decisions. This house also symbolizes the physical presence of an individual and how others perceive him/her.

 Ruling body: Mars. This connection suggests involvement and justice. It also reflects on the organization in the lives of these natives. In the horoscope chart, Mars expressed our temper and reactions.

 Element: Fire. This element symbolizes empowerment and fearlessness and is considered to influence the boldness and awareness of people connected to April 13 zodiac. Fire gets new meanings in association with the other elements, making things boil with water, heating up air and modeling earth.

 Lucky day: Tuesday. Ruled by Mars this day symbolizes clarity and activity and seems to have the same concrete flow as the lives of Aries individuals.

 Lucky numbers: 4, 8, 15, 19, 25.

 Motto: I am, I do!

People born on April 13 are spontaneous freedom lovers who are rarely diplomatic and tactful with anyone around. Just like a true Aries, they are powerful, courageous and determined to succeed. They appreciate being engaged in projects that give them a chance to shine at what they do best, making plans. They dislike being questioned about their choices and decisions both in their activities and family life. Those born under this sign enjoy outdoor activities, especially if those include social gatherings and some kind of competition.

 Positive traits: These natives are quick to respond to change and they often embrace it cheerfully. They are reliable and highly resourceful so don’t forget to search for them when you need help or new ideas. Aries people are efficient and imaginative and they are often very enterprising. However, they are sometimes to keen on seeing things done as quickly as possible so they risk loosing interest in time.

 Negative traits: These natives are stubborn and arrogant and they find it very difficult to compromise or accept that other might have good ideas and that they can’t always go in their direction. They are extremely argumentative and this in turn leads to some unfortunate collisions with other people. They are often undisciplined as children and this attitude seems to continue in adulthood for some of them bringing even to themselves a level of frustration.

They are attracted to enthusiastic and mysterious persons and sparks will fly for a long time if their partner manages to keep up the pace with them.

They are most compatible with those born on 1st, 8th, 10th, 17th, 19th, 26th and 28th.

 April 13 Zodiac people are very compatible with the other two fire signs: Leo and Sagittarius as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Aries is in a constant search for a deep and understanding relationship where they can open their hearts and express their feelings freely. The one to offer this to them is the affectionate and loyal Libra. Aries is thought to be least compatible with those born under the Pisces zodiac sign. As for the rest of compatibilities between the other star signs and Aries, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

Lucky Color: Red is the color that is considered lucky for those Aries natives with April 13.

IF YOUR BIRTHDAY IS APRIL 13, you were born with daring, genuineness and brains. You have a tendency to face adversity head-on using your given talents. Those born under this zodiac sign of Aries are generally very “lucky” even as a child.

Although you lose yourself in anger sometimes and say or do hurtful things, you mainly are a gentle soul but you can be impatient and become easily upset when someone criticizes you. Otherwise, you typically work to resolve problems using your instincts and principles.

The 13th April birthday personality loves to travel, so you can move around a lot. You also have extravagant spending habits attached to your personality traits.

If today is your birthday keep their word. It is also a very important part of an Aries nature. You are honest to a fault so most people trust you with confidential matters.

The April 13th birthday horoscope shows that you try to avoid negative thinking and people. You have an optimistic attitude toward life and like to be around those who think as you do.

Although you have mostly friends of the opposite sex, at the end of the day, Arians are loyal friends. You have a respect for your elders. They have a wisdom that could be of some help to you in areas of love and finance. You want to know what they have to say so you pay close attention.

You love good food and great sex. At the same time, you love to makeup sex. There is something about an intense argument that gets you uncontrollably aroused. This cold-hearted nature hinders your ability to be emotionally attached to anyone. It will take at least two keys to unlock this chained heart – love, and loyalty.

However, once inside, the Aries partner will need to be someone who has the same sexual desires and independent nature. This Aries birthday person would be very happy to pair up. However, you are slow to make a long-term commitment.

The 13 April birthday astrology analysis shows that you are self-confident and tend to meet both short-term and long-term goals that you set. You may find this Arian in positions of power, in the health care field or even in the armed forces.

The April 13 birthday personality can be conniving when it comes to business deals. You are prone to take advantage of properties that you can buy and resell for a quick profit. Some of you Arians will inherit a lump sum that will enable you to invest fully in your retirement fund.

Until this happens, it would be in your best interest to pay off some major accounts that you have accumulated. Financial success will come through thinking, believing and working toward that goal.

The 13 April birthday characteristics also show that you are generally very proud of your bodies. You work hard to achieve the body you want and as a result, you usually do not have any physical or mental problems associated with stress or worry. If you were to have physical ailments, it would be leaning toward joints and bone diseases. Arthritis is commonly associated with those born on April 13.

Those born on this zodiac birthday, April 13, have a lot of nerve… You are bold and perhaps a little cold. You have a short fuse when it comes to criticism and patience. You have very little room for either. Having these faults does not mean that you are not a loyal friend or lover.

The April 13th birthday meanings show that you have a desire to be with someone with whom you can share your sexual and independent qualities. But you are slow to give your love and trust to anyone. You respect your elders and have a strong sense of morals due to your upbringing.

Two things this Aries birthday individual normally does not worry about is money or health. You take care of those requirements. You live to be stress-free. That is what you do… you are Aries the Ram.
