Leo Rising Sign
Discover what it means to have Leo rising.
The Rising Sign (or Ascendant) is the face that you show to the world. It tints your outward personality and directs the first impressions that others form about you. Your style, friendships and physical appearance are also influenced by the Rising Sign, from the clothes you choose to the people you click with.
Passionate, expressive and willingly over-the-top, you exude a true star quality. A born performer and entertainer, you can be counted on to bring the party vibes to the most staid of situations. The world is your eternal playground. You never lose your youthful optimism or your desire to rock out at concerts in a venue full of teenagers. Costume parties are your favorite. Your own wardrobe may be filled with sequins, metallics, faux furs and Jackie O sunglasses ... and that's just your everyday wear! You're drawn to artists, musicians and anyone who lives life in bold, bright splashes of color. When a leader is needed, you're the first to step in, but you can quickly overburden yourself. Learning to hold back your impulse to take charge is an important lesson. You can be a bit of a praise junkie too, so watch a tendency to place too much of your self-worth in other people's hands. A wild, curly "mane" of hair is a signature trait of the Leo Rising. Don't try to tame it — just streak it purple or dye it a bold henna hue.
