Aquarius Rising

Personality

    Being an Aquarius Rising, your personality is infused with an Aquarian's need for independence that can't be underestimated! This is the most sensible Rising sign, but it is essential that a Rising Aquarian develops- and sustains- the right lifestyle for them. Although you have the reputation of being approachable, you know when to keep your distance.

    Thus, you can be quite elusive and don't want your privacy invaded. You're naturally friendly and seem compassionate because of your genuine desire to be helpful, so anyone with a problem will find you ready to help fix it. You approach others' problems as you approach your own: logically, detached and without undue emotion.

Friendship

    You need the company of friends very much. Even getting married will not reduce the importance of friendship to you. For the philanthropic and intellectual Aquarius Rising, all relationships begin with friends! Everyone can become your friend, because everyone has different characteristics and advantages to them. This all comes down to a basic admiration of the spirit of human beings, and a respect for the spirit of goodness and friendliness.

    While company is essential to feeling fulfilled, you still like to be alone, without interference from others. The Aquarian enjoyment of loneliness is a beautiful art. And sometimes it's true, Aquarians can be better counselors than friends. The reason is that, though emotionally involved, they can think clearly and visualize situations and problems creatively. As your Rising is the sign of friendship, I do predict that your friends will receive both warmth and guidance from you.

Performance

    I think everyone should embrace their Rising, but remember that it's not the only force at action in your chart. However, I do believe your Rising has important influence on your personality at work or school. You need work that can make you grow. You feel much less pressure when cooperating with others.

    Constant routine will make you tired very soon. As an Air placement, a dull job has failed your innate creative ability in vain. You also have an active and strong thirst for knowledge.
