Rising Sign

Thanks to visionary Uranus as their sign’s ruler, Aquarius risings use their beauty routine as a form of rebellion. Case in point: David Bowie whose subversion of gender stereotypes through glam rock made him much more than just a style icon. His out-of-this-world make-up was totally Aquarian, as was his larger-than-life aura. This is the rising sign that’s most likely to flirt with androgyny, for sure. Ascendant Aquarians are always ahead of the curve, and their visibility helps pave the way for others to follow. If you have Aquarius rising, subverting people’s expectations of what your looks should be is your form of magic. Forget gender norms or fashion trends and do whatever feels good to you. Shock is your superpower. This ascendant does give you a lot of nervous energy, so make sure to add some relaxing elements to your routine, too. Try adding some stress-relieving lavender oil to your bath, or envisioning that you’re sloughing off any negative energy as you exfoliate.
