Rising Sign Style: All About the Ascendant Aesthetic

rising sign style

Your Rising Sign style reveals a lot when it comes to your appearance. It’s one of the ‘Big Three’ astrology placements alongside The Sun and The Moon.

While The Sun is the real you and The Moon influences your emotional self, the Rising Sign reveals how you present yourself at surface level.

Does your Rising Sign influence your looks?

The Rising Sign is found in the First House of your birth chart, which rules your head, face, and profile, influencing your appearance. 

The first impression people have of you will most likely be linked to the traits of your Rising Sign.

Therefore your Ascendant Sign is more of a superficial signal to the world about who you are.

Your Rising Sign style influences your aesthetic preferences, including the colours you are drawn to and the clothes you like to wear.
