How many of you guys have read this???

Furthermore, how many of you have been the teency bit offended by it?

I read this a while ago and was *shocked and appaulled* to read how apparently all us Earth and Water Ascendants are ugly sods and Libra risings are perfect!
That's bloody rich! They even go on to say that there are *some* attractive Earth/Water Ascendants but it's very rare! Oh, how gracious of them not to completely catergorise! They even say if someone has an Earth Ascendant and they are beautiful, they must have got their Ascendant wrong!

Is this a tad elitist or am I going crazy?

It wasn't even accurate with its insults! Apparently, due to my Cappy rising, I should be tall and lanky with coarse hair! I'm actually short (not fat, though haha, I hope!) with very fine hair!

Pish to them, I say!
Not true, I also know people with beautiful ascendants who aren't stunningly gorgeous.

I suppose they would think I was even unworthy of having a crush on a Libra rising.

They can get stuffed.

However, I find other information on this website to be very helpful, so I'm not condemming it entirely

Yeah pretty stupid,each sign has its own special thing attached,you cant classify anything as "ugly" or "beautiful".

Bet if you took a survey among "good looking people" like models etc,you would find a rather Equal distribution...

LOL! This is borderline SAD/INSANE. Sadly insane, or insanely sad, you choose!

Thanks for the link!

This is generalising to the extreme especially the Sun part.
But honestly…I don’t believe any of it. Except for the Libra asc part - although the two I know aren’t exceptional beauties…more like average beauties.

I've always thought Gem asc also gives beauty…both my mother and sister have it.
I think Aries rising gives you a boyish look - but in a good way

Here, you can make up your own minds - but check out Libra rising WOW…but then the site is called Libra rising
http://www.librarising.com/risingsigns/ristable2.html

If someone finds a better site, please share. I’m not sure if this one’s accurate.

*edited

According to the site, the most attractive ascendant is

#1 Libra
#2 Leo/Sagittarius

Both Aries and Gemini are “attractive”
And Aquarius is “good looking”

People are usually uncomfortable in the presence of Virgo rising types -as though they are being analyzed for imperfections. Gemeni is usually on the Midheaven, making them writers, comedians, and communicators in general.

Well, they didn't call us ugly HERE at least. But I know what you're talking about. They called all the negative signs ugly. They have such few examples of Virgo, too...Hmm...I wonder why...*rolls eyes*

And I must ask. How do you call Barbara Stanwyck ugly?

I do think that sight is useful...but it is kinda stupid. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. From what they say I should be halfway decent looking I guess. That's pretty right, but I have boys lined down the street that would go out with me. Good looking ones too. I'm not being conceited I swear to God. I'm not very photogenic, but if you meet me in person when I'm dressed nicely, I'm not bad looking.
Personally I think Cappy rising girls are really beautiful. I think the whole dark thing they've got going for them is gorgeous.

You wanna know what I really find funny?

They keep misspelling "Gemini" as "Gemeni".....

Also...they acknowledge that most sources say Warren Beaty is a late Virgo rising, but insist that he's a Libra rising because he's good looking.

All this thing about how awesome ascendants are is useless!! I´m a libra rising myself and, I´m telling you, I won´t ever win a beauty contest LOL. Hey, I´m pretty happy with myself though,I wouldn´t say I´m bad looking, especially since my self confidence increased!!, but as someone said before, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, Thank God for that!!!

Battle of Evermore: Totally agree with the Cappy rising, there is a very seductive quality that comes with this darkness...and it is not like the Scorpionic/Plutonian darkness, it is just different...

MoonDuchess, I'm a Virgo, Leo Moon, Aqua Asc. Uranus in Capricorn, Jupiter in Leo. I wonder if house placements has anything to do with it?

I did some more research on this site, it has Angelina Jolie listed as a sagittarius rising, explaining her "basic good looks"...WTF???


Everyone knows she's a cancer rising

*edit* BoE, yeah aqua suns and risings in general tend to be extremely goodlooking, w/ the Roman profile thing goin' on
