Why is is that I find none of the air rising particularly attractive (apart from the occasional person)? I seem to find a lot of the Aqu risings just bizaare looking and the other two just look kinda flimsy to me in appearance (hope I haven't offended the air risings)

I've got Aries rising but a lot of my chart is airy (sun/merc -aqu, moon/pluto - libra, mars- gem).

I seem to be very attracted to fire risings (esp aries, or anyone with mars in 1st) and sco rising. I have moon and ura in 7th, pluto conj DC.

Just a thought.

What about yourselves? What rising are you and what risings or combinations do you prefer in other people's appearances?

For me it seems to be the fire risings, and Leo rising seems to have the unexplainable "it" factor for me, by a fraction. Aries and Sag risings I like in different ways, but really the overall difference for me comes from the personality more than the looks.

I'm a Sag rising with Jupiter in Aries, Leo MC (I also have a fifth house stellium incl. my sun), and my "far" sun/moon midpoint is at 0.5 degrees Leo.

I also find myself attracted to Aquarius-influenced people but it's usually their sun or moon more so than their ascendant. I have sun opposite Uranus and my near sun/moon midpoint is at 9 degrees Aquarius - and I'm sure it's no accident that those Aquarius-influenced people I've been enamoured of have close conjunctions to that midpoint...

Edit: Just to add some more analysis...

The Leo risings are usually hitting my 8th or 9th houses... 8th for sexual attraction plus I'm a Scorpio moon so there's an added attraction there... 9th house appeals to my Sag ascendant and maybe my Jupiter in the 5th house plays a part here too.

The Aries risings can either trine my ascendant, conjunct my Jupiter or be elsewhere in my fifth house.

The Sag risings can all possibly conjunct my ascendant, trine my sun or oppose my Venus.

I find water AC attractive. Scorpio risers are generally not what you call attractive, but have that certain something. Sure I could find a few stunners though. Millions to pick from.

Everyone will be attracted to any sign if you find enough people.

Thanks for the opinions, its given me something to mull over...

Yeah leo risings are beautiful and have this amazing regal presence. But my favourite for some reason is Aries AC. I've been going through the Aries AC people (as well as mars in 1st) and just find them so racy and raunchy, just so passionate and sexy and dangerous. Even Joan Rivers has that kind of spark. I can't believe that I am one myself. I just look at myself and there is no way I could possibly project that raunch.

Leo risings for beauty, sag risings are more of a plainer beauty to me. I've noticed anyone with a bit of mid-leo has a chance with me, I think its the potential to form the grand trine with my neptune (sag) and jup/ac (aries)

I looked up my midpoints. I have sun-moon at 11 deg sag; venus-mars at 20 deg pisces (?!)

Yeah its the forbidden quality of Sco rising, they just entrance you into this wierd vortex. I was looking at Christian Bale pictures the other day (suspected Sco AC). Never bothered paying much attention to him and then I could feel his pictures calling me or something. Brian Ferry as well.

I have NN (18 deg sco) and Vx (16 deg sco) in 8th and my 8th house starts at about 13 deg sco.

Here's another sco rising that I was mesmerised by as a teenager:

I've noticed that there are quite a few cancer risings that are deemed attracted by society: Beckham, Jolie, Minogue etc

quote:
I am aqua rising (thanks much 23! haha)

Lol! Sorry I could see this one happening

I find the Aqu element very attractive. Having ura in the 7th (but it squares my sun/merc!), sun/merc/eros/valentine etc in Aqu makes for an attraction to Aqu but I don't know why for Aqu AC. I think part of the reason stems from the fact that my sun is at 2 deg Aqu so there is a great chance that I would be a 12th house sun in synastry for the other person. Which leads me to the fact that I have a hell of a lot of cap acs in my life and that must be because my sun falls in their first (venusmars' theory?). I tend to find them reasonably attractive.

Plus in my chart, 3rd house cusp is gem, 11th is aqu. Not exactly sexy houses. 7th is libra - see below

The Leo risings are usually hitting my 8th or 9th houses... 8th for sexual attraction plus I'm a Scorpio moon so there's an added attraction there... 9th house appeals to my Sag ascendant and maybe my Jupiter in the 5th house plays a part here too.

I forgot to look at houses! My AC is at 14 deg Aries, 5th house kicks in at about 19 deg leo.

I have also noticed that although my DC is libra and I don't tend to go for libran men as such or libra rising, I have noticed that people with a prominent venus (eg in 1st or men in particular with sun-venus conj) attractive more or less.

True and the best of each rising will always be able to present someone attractive.
