Aries & The Green-Eyed Monster 👀

Does independent Aries get jealous? Sometimes, but maybe not in the way you think.

It's Often More About:

• Competition: Less "You belong to me" (like Taurus/Scorpio) and more "Am I winning your attention over others?" It can activate their competitive streak.
• Ego/Pride: Feeling slighted or like they're not #1 can trigger a reaction that looks like jealousy, but is more about wounded pride.
• Fear of Boredom: If they sense your attention wandering significantly, they might react impulsively out of fear the excitement is fading.
• Possessiveness (of Attention): They want to be the main focus when you're together. Distractions can annoy them.

How They Show It:

• Direct confrontation ("Who were you talking to?").
• Trying to "win" you back with grand gestures or showing off.
• Sudden withdrawal or moodiness (a quick flare-up).

Key: It often flares up fast and fades fast if reassured quickly and directly. They usually don't simmer like water/earth signs. Address it head-on.
