Scorpio Rising Sign
Rising Sign meaning, traits, and how it differs from your sun sign
Your rising sign, or ascendant, is the sign that was on the eastern horizon at the moment you were born. It governs first impressions — the part of you people meet before they know you. It needs an accurate birth time, since it changes roughly every two hours.
First impression
Intense and self-contained. A Scorpio rising is felt before they speak.
Manner and style
Steady eye contact, economical movement, and a deliberate withholding.
Approaching new situations
Watches a new situation carefully and reveals nothing until it is assessed.
How it differs from the sun sign
Reads as more guarded and more formidable than the person feels inside.
