T O P I C R E V I E WLibreoIv'e read several times lately that Pisces rising is rare? This true? And why?lalalindaIt's in a sign of short ascension http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascendant Long and Short AscensionBecause the Earth's axis (see axial tilt) is tilted relative to the ecliptic, the twelve signs do not take the same amount of time to cross the eastern horizon. At the equator, there is very little difference (Pisces, Aries, Virgo and Libra take slightly less time than the other signs) but as one moves from the equator, larger and larger differences emerge.In the northern hemisphere, the signs of Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus and Gemini take much less time than the theoretical two hours to cross the eastern horizon, whilst the signs of Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius take much longer than two hours to do so.------------------"For all those who believe, expect a miracle.” Linda Goodman 1925-1995lvASTROSupposedly the time of ascension for this rising sign is relatively short in most places (50 minutes) as opposed to the theoretical 2 hours, due to the earth's axial tilt relative to the ecliptic as the signs pass through it. Or something...LibreoWell now I feel all special! (I am Pisces rising and I also gave birth to one in January).quietstormwow..never knew all of that, have a pisces rising myself.Solar_Leo_QueenIt's different for both hemispheres, though. I think you'd see more Pisces rising in the southern hemisphere than in the north. As for those born near the equator like me, it seems like every sign rises at almost the same amount of time.KeroseneIs libra the most common because I often encounter this rising in most charts of people I know.PiscesCancerTaurusim a Pisces rising so is my cousin. How cool that we are rare.
