I’m an astrologer… and here are eight ways Aries can decorate their home

Aries season is upon us. It is the first sign in the Zodiac, symbolising the start of a new cycle. Aries natives are fiery, loud and exciting – and your home can be too. 

When redesigning your home, it is useful to consider your astrology sign. 

This decor can fit with your personality and as a result have a positive influence on your mental health and well-being. 

When it comes to an Aries home, it’s important to ensure that the home doesn’t blend in with the crowd. 

Aries natives are loud and want to be seen so their homes should be bold and should embrace a wide range of styles. 

To help make this happen, MyJobQuote’s interior designer and astrology enthusiast, Ryan McDonough, has created this guide on how to decorate your home for an Aries vibe. 

But first, what would an Aries aesthetic look like?

• Yang energy which can be described as loud, active, and brightly lit,
• Heat and fire-related elements,
• The colour red – this is the Aries power colour,
• Activity-inducing elements – Aries natives tend to always have energy,
• Pastoral images – these are visionary elements that induce feelings of passion, spring, and romance.

To achieve this aesthetic, Mr McDonough has eight easy tips you should follow:

Take risks

Aries natives are bold and like to make big changes often. 

While it’s a good idea to stay safe sometimes, you should allow yourself to go a little wild and take some risks when it comes to your home décor. 

This is your space where you can really show off your personality. 

A big part of your home décor should be doing things that other people typically don’t. Make your space as unique as your heart desires.

Make use of the colour red

The Aries colour is red. This colour represents power, motivation, and energy. 

While it’s not a good idea to paint your entire home red, it is helpful to think about how you can incorporate this colour into your home design. 

Even just small accents of red can help to make you feel more at home and can bring out the fiery aspects of your personality.

Embrace open space

Aries natives don’t like to feel restricted in any area of their lives. 

When designing the perfect Aries home, it’s essential to consider how you will incorporate open space in the home. 

Think open-plan layouts, lots of mirrors, and the right kind of furniture placements.

Focus on your creativity 

Aries natives are extremely creative. With all of those amazing ideas, you will need a space to turn those ideas into a reality.

Think about this when designing your home. Consider adding a home office. 

If you’re limited on space, just a corner in a room is enough to create a space dedicated to your creativity.

Choose items that you can change easily

Those with Aries in their chart tend to get very bored easily. So when you’re decorating your home, it’s important to choose design elements that can be switched up easily. 

Some examples may include choosing rugs instead of permanent carpets, adding removable wallpaper, and choosing furniture that you can move around easily. 

Anything that will allow you to make some small changes in the future will help.

Think about organisation

Aries natives like to have solid plans and thrive when it comes to being organised. 

Invest in plenty of storage solutions that will allow you to keep things tidy and keep things separated, so you always know where to look when you need to find something. 

Since Aries are all go all the time, organisation is key. You don’t want to find yourself tripping over clutter when you have a sudden new idea that needs your attention.

Consider a maximalist approach

While minimalism is a very popular trend at the moment, Aries natives may find that maximalist approaches to home décor could serve their souls better. 

Maximalism involves having fun with various styles and choosing a lot of items to display in bold, unique ways. 

Embrace bright colours, various patterns, and lots of textures to make your home more interesting.

Add space for relaxing

Aries natives are constantly on the move and often find it hard to make time for rest.

This is why it’s important to add a dedicated area for resting. 

You don’t want to find yourself getting burnt out, especially in your own home. 

Consider adding some mood lighting and scented candles throughout your space to encourage relaxation. 

Decorate your bathroom for a relaxing vibe, and make use of the bath to add some calmness to your life.

Your home is a place to escape the pressure from the outside world, so make sure you decorate your home in a way that allows you to do this.
