WHY ARE CAT AND RABBIT BLENDED IN MY NEW ASTROLOGY? THE CHINESE CALL THIS SIGN RABBIT. OTHER ASIAN CULTURES (VIETNAMESE FOR EXAMPLE) CALL THIS SIGN CAT. BOTH CAT AND RABBIT HAVE IDENTICAL CHARACTERISTICS.

Caring is the Aries/Cat’s specialty. Not only does this native care about everything solid and traditional and valuable, he also enjoys the capacity to care for those elements. This person is a generator of refinement, an accumulator of wisdom, a dispenser of metaphysical energy and a preserver of life’s finer things. The Aries/Cat is a Cat’s Cat. He usually makes a good living and knows how to hang on to his money.
Cat virtue lends itself willingly to Aries’ vigorous courage. This person sets about each day on an intense search for peace and beauty. Aries gives him punch. The Cat confers prudence, taste and independence.
You won’t find Aries/Cats managing your local supermarket or hawking rugs in a souk. If you are looking for one of these characters; you’d be better off hunting in an art museum. You see, the cultural bent in Aries/Cat people is never just a hobby. Refinement, beauty and the pursuit of the civilized are the real goals of an Aries/Cat.
Gain, of course, enters the picture too. But this person demands that his wealth come from solid, classical sources. Aries/Cats are not tricksters who long for the coup that will bring them a windfall so they can rush off to South America and cha-cha with a bevy of dark-eyed senoritas. Instead, the Aries/Cat is a model of perseverance. He doesn’t plod the way an Ox or a Taurus can. The Aries/Cat pads gently but diligently along on velvet paws. His back curves upward from time to time when danger approaches. The hairs on his neck stand up. But Aries/Cat doesn’t hiss or spit. This is not a rowdy breed. Vigorous, but never rude or aggressive, the Aries/Cat is a study in moderation.
The addition of the Cat qualities to the dauntless Ram’s heredity lends a quality of refinement not given to every Aries. Aries, as we know, can be a bit on the lumpy side—gauche or even ostentatious. The Cat brings Aries finesse, gentility and prudence. What more could a swaggering warrior want?
Not that Aries needs any, but the Cat certainly comes equipped with a lion’s share of virtue. Cats like to think of themselves as credible and fair in all matters human. For the Aries, who is also a solid citizen type, albeit a most noisy one, the Cat identity comes easy. In the Cat sign there are no major juxtapositions of character trait to which the Aries cannot easily adjust.
Comfort is excessively important to this person. Aries/Cats surround themselves with plants and cushions, divans, pillows and elaborate hot water systems with matching bathrooms. At Aries/Cat’s house the stereo system is always top-of-the-line. There may not be other luxuries—I do not claim the Aries/Cat is merely a materialist—but there will always be deep comfy armchairs where one may sit and listen to the finest music chosen by our friend Aries-the-Cat himself.
Food is not crucially important to this Cat. Aries/Cat enjoys fine cuisine, but if there are only bacon and eggs or corn flakes, Aries/Cat will settle for that. Usually, rather than spend hours in the kitchen or marketplace, Aries/Cat prefers visiting other people’s dining rooms. Time spent preparing meals is time in which the Aries/Cat might have gone to an exciting new exhibition, chatted with a fascinating scholar, bought an antique Recamier or grand piano. First, Aries/Cat soaks up the situation through ultrasensitive eyes and ears. Only after “casing the joint” is Aries/Cat ready to embark on any given plan.
Aries/Cats are capable. They can do all manner of work. But Aries/Cat is not what I would call a “creative” sign. Rather, these people lift beauty and ideas from life, polish them in the comfort and beauty of their own homes and refine them for their own use. Aries/Cat is a collector of liveliness, a natural dilettante.
Love
Do I dare say it? Aries/Cat is not very faithful in love. Rather, Aries born a Cat is constantly in love. Aries and Cat together form an emotional independent. Neither of these signs is really the clinging-vine type. Having a partner with whom one makes a home, spends holidays and eventually has children seems on the surface to Aries/Cat like a good idea. But in the doing, Aries/Cat cannot “hack” dense thickets of emotional pushings and shovings. Cats hate conflict, remember? And Aries is ill-equipped to deal with the wars he dreams of fighting. So one-on-one, hard-hitting emotional rows, such as life dumps in the laps of those who cohabit for love’s sake, send the Aries/Cat packing. Or rather, it’s the other way around. Aries/Cat stays. You go. Out!
Now there are ways to deal with Aries/Cat’s reluctance to roll in the mud of emotion. If you love an Aries/Cat and long to take her for your bride, keep your distance. Be the first to back off. “I’m sorry, darling. I just can’t make it Tuesday. I have to go to San Francisco for the whole week.” You may not really have to go to San Francisco. But it doesn’t matter. The Aries/Cat will buy your story. He or she won’t even ring you to see if it’s true. Oh no. Aries/Cat is delighted for a little space in which to plan and do and absorb in his/her own room with books and paintings and music and maybe a few cats lolling decoratively about the comfortable nest he’s made for himself.
Compatibilities
Try going out with Leos born either Dog or Pig. You’ll be attracted to Sagittarius/Sheep and Gemini/Pigs and Sheep. You’ll fall for handsome Aquarius/Snakes and their cultured Pig brothers too. If I were you, I’d leave Cancer/Dragons, Rats and Roosters alone, give Capricorn/Tigers a wide berth, and avoid all (beautiful but feisty) Libra/Dragons and their lusty Tiger counterparts.
Home and Family
The individualism present in every Aries/Cat subject’s nature augurs a problematic family life. Aries/Cat is home-loving and careful, sensible and only slightly mad. But this person is so enormously occupied with his world as it has been engineered by him, for his comfort and quietude and well-being, that he cannot always exteriorize emotion well enough to maintain a family unit. I don’t mean that Aries/Cats are not conscientious parents or responsible mates. They are. But they are distant.
But there is more than one way to skin an Aries/Cat. They are almost too cool. The other members of the family will need both patience and the ability to distract and amuse Aries/Cat away from his personal pursuits. Amuse an Aries/Cat and you’ll get to keep him for his nine lives.
Aries/Cat children have a pleasing quality. These kids are born curious. They are eager to visit and see every monument, museum, theme park, movie, fireworks show, and so on. From the moment they are born, Aries/Cats absorb prettiness. Make them comfortable. Give the Aries/Cat child his or her own beautiful space to evolve in. Take him or her on trips and get him subscriptions to good magazines. You will not regret a minute you spend with this bundle of sensitivity.
Profession
Nothing to worry about with Aries/Cat. There is enough ambition here to share with a few more “laid back” signs.
Mind you, don’t go looking for the world-beater, leader-of-the-pack type in Aries/Cat people. Their goals have little or nothing to do with public acclaim. Aries/Cats want to know more, see more and do more than other people. They are forever delving into a new area, picking up a few books on speed skiing or figure skating, or gathering information on famous painters of nudes in order to write the definitive book on the subject. But remember, Aries/Cats make their own success. Where the world is concerned the Cat could not care less. His objectives are security without conflict, comfort without interference, and a reassuring bank balance.
