Light is incomplete without darkness; life has no value in the absence of death. Even a coin has two faces, and so is the case with human beings.

We have two different sides residing inside us, the positive and the negative. It then depends on how we use both sides of our personality to move through life. And for the zodiac signs, each has two different sides.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

Aries is an elevated spirited being with plenteous zeal and energy for life. They are highly motivated, ardent and impassioned, and are able to fill their surroundings with enthusiasm. They don't believe in giving up and never take a back step in completing a challenge.

However, when their character is deconstructed a bit further, it's easy to notice the aggressive and dominant side of Aries' personality. They get disturbed by small things and can have anger issues. But if they learn to take advantage of their own aggression, they can become a knight in shining armor.

Taurus believes in stability and long-term relationships. They strive hard to live a stable life, working hard to earn enough for themselves and loved ones. Taurus loves the consistency in life and make reliable partners in a long-term relationship.

Everything is fine until they start behaving like their zodiac sign, the Bull. When they don't compromise or act stubborn, the real problem arises. Taurus sometimes tends to be more demanding and possessive, which then leads to complications.

Gemini is represented by the Twins. And they do behave as if there is a twin residing inside their single soul. Gemini is generally considered to be extroverted and outgoing, and are always up for adventures; they never shy away in the company of strangers.

But the other twin inside of Gemini is completely different. This side is very impulsive and restless in nature, worries excessively, and prefers solitude. This side of their personality comes out when they are depressed and sad.
