Most Noticeable Aries Traits
It's true that this article is about unique Aries traits that aren't their dominant ones. First , let;s discuss three dominant traits that will help you to identify an Aries. They are brave, energetic, and assertive.
Brave
Aries is perhaps the most courageous sign in the Zodiac. Mars gives them this trait and the fact that they are Cardinal signs helps. They can take their bravery too far and be impulsive. Sometimes they do crazy things without thinking them through, but they understand that if we don't take chances, we will never accomplish anything. Their bravery gives them courage to speak up when they don't agree with something, but it doesn't give them the ability to know when to be quiet sometimes. That's okay, they're not scared of what people think.
Assertive
Perhaps it's their bravery that helps them to be assertive. They're not afraid to say what they have to say, do what they want to, and they don't mind if someone disagrees. They won't apologize if someone dislikes what they do and they calmly say what they have to say. They don't second guess themselves. They make up their mind and they follow through with it. This is one of the things that makes them natural born leaders and gives people confidence that they know what they're doing. When you are so decisive about what you say and do, people will take notice and respect you for it. Read more about Aries here: Aries Traits | Star Sign in The Spotlight

A Last Word
Aries might be a Zodiac Sign who is least likely to have unnoticed traits, unless you're not paying attention. Some people make assumptions when they first meet in Aries.

Don't underestimate them. Their energy, enthusiasm, and sensitivity guides them through some of the most difficult situations that some other Signs just can't handle.
