Aries Rising
Move out of the way folks, because Aries rising wants to be first!
I'll be blunt about this and say that if you have Aries rising in
your chart, someone's first impression of you may be that you are
a little pushy or rude. Almost always, they will see you as impatient
and in a rush. You may even appear to be arrogant or self-centered
since you're so busy pushing forward; you sometimes don't even notice
anyone around you.
This is the mask - the first impression. What you will also find
with Aries rising is an indomitable spirit, steadfast courage and
willingness to walk through fire to fight for what they believe in.
Some people don't like Aries rising because they do seem overly concerned
with developing their own ego, or self identity. And here's the irony:
that's exactly what they are supposed to be doing in this incarnation.
The immediate soul purpose of an Aries rising is to develop that
strong sense of an independent self.
Taurus Rising
When the bull is rising in your chart, you may appear to others
as slow moving, easygoing and someone with charming manners. Some
might see you as a tad too materialistic or possessive. You may appear
extremely stubborn; not only are you unwilling to give up, you don't
know how to give up. At the same time, the presence of a Taurus rising
is usually quite calming and peaceful, almost docile.
Taurus rising may appear simplistic to some. It seems as if all
you really want is a good meal, some great sex, and a beautiful piece
of land to call your own. Whatever your values are, with Taurus rising,
there will be no trouble in expressing them to others.
The soul purpose of someone with Taurus rising will center on understanding
the nature of the physical. This includes every physical experience
from aesthetic to intimate. You are learning how to bring spirit
into matter.
Gemini Rising
If you have Gemini rising in your chart, you may appear to others
as very restless. You have this air about you of eternal youth, and
even if you're 90 years old, I'll bet your mind is as sharp as ever!
You're excitable and mentally agile - always moving onto something
new or the next idea. You're sometimes perceived as fickle because
so many things interest you and it's difficult to focus on one area
of interest at a time.
Your immediate soul purpose is to learn how to communicate truthfully.
You do this only after you've evaluated all sides of a situation.
We all know there are several sides to a story. Your lesson is to
integrate them all into one cohesive truth.
Cancer Rising
With Cancer rising, others see you as moody and someone with fluctuating
emotions. You may seem quite shy, insecure, and super-sensitive.
You give off the impression of reacting emotionally to everything,
and also appear as someone who is extremely home and family loving.
You are also intensely creative. Others see you as capable of nurturing
others in a deep capacity and even if you're a man, there is this "mothering" quality
to your persona.
Your immediate soul purpose is to learn about nurturing and loving
others in a responsible way.
Leo Rising
Leo rising appears to the world as someone with a bright, sunny
disposition - at times even dramatic. You seem to exude confidence
and when you walk into a room others definitely notice!
Your soul purpose is to learn you don't need approval from the outside
world. Underneath that noble air, you're really learning how to love
yourself.
Virgo Rising
Virgo rising seems to be quite refined. Very often a probing, analytical
speaker with a soft tone to your voice, others may see you as intelligent
and witty. Others may accuse you of either being too neat, or too
messy, but you will certainly have a distinct pattern to your character.
Others will notice how important work is to you as well.
Your immediate soul purpose has to do with learning how to improve
yourself without criticizing or undermining others...read
