Sagittarius Rising Sign

What Does Sagittarius Rising Sign Mean?

Is my Ascendant Sign the same as my Rising Sign? Yes, in astrology the Rising Sign is also known as the Ascendant Sign. It is related to the First House in our horoscope and refers to how others see us and how we relate to the outside world. It is the zodiac sign that was rising on the Eastern horizon the moment of our birth. So, when astrologers say someone is a ‘Sagittarius Rising’ or Sagittarius Ascendant, it means that Sagittarius was the zodiac sign rising in the eastern horizon at the moment of their birth.

What’s the Difference Between Sagittarius Sun Sign and Sagittarius Rising Sign?

Does my Rising Sign in Sagittarius relate to how the world sees me? What does my Sagittarius Ascendant say about me? Our rising sign, or ascendant sign determines how we relate to the outside world on a social and physical level. This is often referred to as our ‘public mask’ and is not always a true insight into the character. Our sun sign signifies our internal character, self-esteem and deeply held personal goals. There is nothing Sagittarius sun sign like more than a challenge, in fact, once they perceive the ‘fight’ has gone out of someone or something, they get bored. This trait is intensified when Sagittarius is rising and their need for challenge, in virtually all areas of life, is even greater.

What Is Sagittarius Rising Physical Appearance?

What are the distinctive physical qualities associated with Sagittarius Rising? Physical appearance is one of the few areas in astrology that can be quite contradictory and difficult to define. However, Sagittarius rising is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of expansion and their most attractive quality is their zest for life, the optimism and sense of adventure. On an intellectual level being ruled by Jupiter is a good thing, but on a physical level it means that those born under this zodiac sign tend to be susceptible to weight gain. Sagittarius rising tends to be long-legged and taller than most other signs.

Sagittarius Rising In Love and Relationships

How does someone born with Sagittarius rising behave in love? Provided this zodiac sign is in a relationship with someone who likes a challenge as much as they do, things will work out just fine. Like everything in Sagittarius sun sign and rising sign, a sense of freedom is essential and this is also true in love. There is nothing more off-putting to this astrological sign than the feeling of being ‘tied down’ and their need for spontaneity and variety, can lead to them adopting a casual approach towards their partner. Sagittarius rising needs a partner who is equally vivacious and out-going and find it difficult to deal with possessiveness and jealousy in a relationship.

When younger, Sagittarius rising falls in love easily and often and it takes them a while to find ‘the one’ as they can be quite demanding. As they get older, this rising sign is clear about what they want from their partner and will appreciate not just the physical connection but also a deeper, soulmate connection. Fire signs Leo, Aries or another Sagittarius make good partners but also Air signs Libra and Aquarius are worth considering.

How do You Behave at Work?

Are there certain careers where someone born with Sagittarius rising can excel? More than any other rising sign, Sagittarius can thrive in pretty much any profession. Their optimistic outlook and innate self-confidence makes them natural born leaders, company directors, managers and entrepreneurs.

The very worst thing that could happen to Sagittarius rising is being stuck in a 9-5 job as routine can kill their creativity and ultimately lead to boredom. Any job that involves direct contact with people allows this astrological sign to use their communication skills to great affect, so sales, marketing and the media are good choices. Equally, Sagittarius rising loves to learn and their enthusiasm and creativity makes them excellent teachers. A love of travel and a natural flair for languages means any job in the travel industry will appeal to this rising sign.

How Does Sagittarius Rising Affect Family and Friends?

How important is family and friends to someone who is born with Sagittarius rising? Provided they can avoid routine and anything that hints at boredom, Sagittarius rising can be a great parent, fun sibling and inspiring friend. At times, this zodiac sign’s need for communal activity can be a strain on others who may not quite quite as enthusiastic.

Despite their lack of diplomacy and tendency to be blunt, Sagittarius rising’s mellow and friendly manner makes it easy for family and friends to confide in them. One thing that never changes, regardless of the situation, is this rising sign’s need to compete, so every family/friend situation can become confrontational and risk damaging the relationship.

How can Sagittarius Rising Maintain a Healthy Balance?

Sagittarius rising has a wonderful zest for life but it’s important to try not to bite off more than you can chew! This astrological sign’s restless nature makes it hard to concentrate on one thing – it’s an all-or-nothing approach – which sometimes means starting lots of things but never finishing anything. Maintaining a healthy balance between intellectual pursuits and physical activity will help this rising sign to get more out of life.
