⭐Astrology Notes: Rising Signs ⭐
As many of you know, your rising sign is basically your external looks and the way you present yourself in society. To put it short, it is a sort of mask that you are wearing.
It is said that the more you age, the more you relate to your rising sign.
The rising sign corresponds to the zodiac sign of the 1st house in your birth chart, in which the main focus is on you as a person in general.
To determine your rising sign, it is very important to know at which hour you were born.
A pattern that I've noticed is that the ones who are born during Spring and Summer Seasons, if they are born in the first half of the day, would likely have an Aries to Virgo rising sign, and the ones born in the other half would likely have a Libra to Pisces rising sign.
The order of the rising signs is reversed for people born during the Autumn and Winter Seasons.
Rising signs are divided into 3 respective decans, according to the degrees your rising sign is on your birth chart. Each decan determines how " loyal" you are to your rising sign. People with a rising sign in the first decan possess the purest, most authentic expression of their rising sign. The second decan tends to be the one who is the least authentic, and finally, the third decan is the one that expresses the most intense form of the rising sign.
If you have your rising sign in the third decan ( the highest degrees of your birth chart), it is possible to have some characteristics from the next rising sign that follows yours.
Personality: these people tend to be the most straightforward ones out there, but I always found it interesting how girls tend to lean more on the " quiet confident side", while boys really want to show everything. If you want a " no shit " type of friend, then an Aries rising is perfect for you.
Appearance: they usually have sharp features, especially the jawline, and tend to be on the leaner side. Aries rising people are also the ones who have a natural muscular mass, without necessarily being athletic. Their hair is wavy to curly ( just like a sheep), and the length is most of the time long. Their eyebrows are also more angular, rather than round, which accentuates their sharp features. A lot of Aries rising people are natural redheads and will most likely have freckles as well.
Personality: they take time for everything !!!! Most likely the ones to have those " slow mornings". Never rush a Taurus Rising because if you get them out of their calm way of doing things, they will be very annoyed. Surprisingly, this is the rising sign with the most daydreamers.
Appearance: a more tanned skin complexion ( typical for Earth rising signs), larger and flatter noses with a long bridge. They love piercings and loose necklaces. Their fashion style tends to be very 70s Boho.
Personality: a very bright aura, the most sociable out of the rising signs, loves to travel and make new friends along the way, the life of the party. They also love to collect things and can become hoarders.
Appearance: round face, shorter hair, casual but a bit more colourful clothes. A lot of them wear glasses, mostly round-shaped. They always have that heartwarming grin and prominent dimples.
Personality: very, very shy, blushes at everything, they tend to be even more protective of what they love, compared to the Cancer Suns.
Appearance: very round features, glowing eyes, and the girls have a very well-developed chest, on the chubbier side
Personality: not as attention-seeking as the Sun sign, their sense of humour is actually very intellectual, very talented, or gifted in a certain field.
Appearance: thick hair, beautiful smile, love of accessories, bold clothing patterns, and let's not forget that feline type of face, which is very noticeable from the way their lips are shaped.
Personality: always in a rush, but manages to do it elegantly at the same time, a neat freak, and really does like to get involved in other people's lives. Helping and giving practical advice is their love language.
Appearance: small nose and sharp jawline, bright eyes ( which tend to be lighter in colour), their hair is thin and usually straight, lighter skin complexion, thinner bone structure, freckles, and a lot of them have a heart-shaped face and thin lips
Personality: people pleasers, very social, but not as social as Gemini risings, very kind, and sometimes aloof; ironically, they are very fond of things related to the supernatural or the horror genre. A lot of Libra risings have good singing voices or have a melodious voice in general.
Appearance: everything is balanced, indeed, rounder features, average height, but tends to lean on the curvier side rather than being slim, hip dips, and dimples. They prefer to wear lighter colours (pastels, cream); however, pink is very often their favourite colour.
Personality: they really try to hide their emotional intensity, very romantic, hard to approach (people make a lot of wrong assumptions about them, because of their looks). Secretive, but will also keep all your secrets. They don't like superficiality; they are always looking for deep bonds with people, which is why they mostly have a smaller social circle or just isolate themselves if someone is not worthy of their time.
Appearance: I know it is cliché, but black is really their colour. Bold makeup (especially smoky eye shadow and crimson red lipstick), resting bitch face, rocks all the emo, goth fashion, loves piercings (tongue ones are very frequent).
Personality: sporty, always up for a game or a challenge, but somehow they do not like to get out of their comfort zone as much. In contrast to the Sun sign, they are less adventurous and very playful.
Appearance: they are not too keen on fashion, so they prefer more casual, comfy, and practical clothes. They have this "messy" aura to them (not in a bad way). Tall and lean, always laughs.
Personality: reserved, resting bitch face, very calculated, the most mature out of the rising signs, very good at managing finances, quietly ambitious, and very disciplined
Appearance: darker complexion, small height, girls tend to be more curvier, with very rounded hips. Round eyes (doe-like). They prefer office-style clothes in earthy colours.
Personality: eccentric, always thinks out of the box, not very talkative, and they have a small group of friends, love intellectual topics, and might do the most random stuff. Very adventurous as well.
Appearance: their fashion taste is not as eccentric as their personality; they also tend to wear much simpler clothes. Very tall, and most of them have lighter features. They are usually skinny.
Personality: Unless it is about someone very important to them, they are actually very detached from other people. Will only engage in conversations if you come up to them. They are not dreamers necessarily, and they tend to be a bit childish sometimes. Very expressive laugh, very intellectual as well. They love reading and know a lot of random facts.
Appearance: oval-shaped face, small and a little bit plump lips, long nose bridge, and flat at the base. A lot of them prefer shorter hairstyles. Clothing can be either more casual, sporty, or just smart chic. Though many people say that their eyes are their most expressive feature, I would beg to differ and say that their smile is what makes them charming.
