Interesting to hear about Aqua rising. My mom is a double Aqua. Her family was the eccentric unconventional one (concubines, homosexuality/androgyny, absent parent, aunts and uncles the same age as her...) and she grew to be super conventional. IP: Logged |

My sister, mother and myself are all Leo Risings and my Father only just missed out on a Leo rising with Leo in his twelth house. So that would mean that we are all vying for the same position/role/behaviour?------------------

I'm Aries rising and perpetually treated like a child by all my family. I used to fight it, now I just except they are crackheads. Part of it has to do with me being the youngest, but it is how my family seems to feel most safe interacting with me. My Gemini sister is Leo rising and she is always causing drama, demanding the impossible from others because she feels she doesn't get the special attention the other siblings get (in her made up world). No one's pain is as deep as hers, she can never be satisfied. If someone says something negative about her and you decide to let them vent without challenging their view, you have betrayed her by not standing up for her. If you do challenge their view, you should have never said anything because now you have made her situation worse with them. She remains "King" of the family by making others follow her rules...or else. IP: Logged |

Well my family is filled with Air/Fire dominant people. The most dominant placements being Aries, Libra and Aquarius. All of us possess these dominant three placements (Aquarius father, Aries mother). I'm an Aquarius Rising and I guess I've always been seen as the extremist who is social and friendly however very out "there." I'm definitely the black sheep, however I tend to carry the grief load of my family. I'm the radical one, in views and actions. Free spirited, yes, humanitarian, yes. And when my family needs someone to take a risk, volunteer or be brave (1st House Mars), they come to me. So yes I'm the zany one. IP: Logged |

Hmm...I'm a Scorpio rising, but to be honest, I'm not sure how that fits into my family 'role.' If anything, I fit the 'family role' by being the family mediator, which I think goes along more with the fact that 1) I am a Virgo, 2) I have a strong 7th house Chiron, and 3) the vast majority of my chart is mutable while the rest of my family has mostly fixed signs in their chart. Aries father, Aqua mother, and Taurus brother, and me the lone Virgo... Oh the mediating I did (and still do, but to a lesser extent now that I live in another state). IP: Logged |

Hmm, I also read the asc correlating to the position that you are exepected to play in family dynamics somewhere too...But I think this may have more to do with whether you are first born, middle or last born child and not necessarily the rising sign per se. For instance, I know that in my personal experiences, first born children are always expected to be responsible,the caretaker of the other siblings and "to set the example". Second born children have two options-to follow in the path of the first born and compete for their position. Or just relinquesh any expectations that the parents have that they ever will ever "measure up". Often , it happens, that when the first born has not lived up to expectations set by the parents, the prents then look on to the child that directly follows as if to say:"now its all up to you". The last born child seems to be the one that can do no wrong. Little is exepected of them and when success is attained , it is celebrated tenfold. But then again, that is also an opinion. I am the fisrt born Aries/Taurus asc-not sure whcih is legitimate. And I have walys been exepcted to "stand out" or accomplish something great. Much of the pressure, my mom argues, is self imposed. But I've always felt that I have to accomplish something great in my family. My sister has Leo on the Asc. They are not as hrad on her as they are on me. She, I feel , can be herself consistently and gain support. My youngest sister has Gem asc(as I discovered recently)and she really has it EASY. She doesn't have to accomplish much and, I feel, my parents are often very soft on her. But then again she is no rebel

I wouldn't say I have a specific role in the family, but I tend to be the only common ground between all of them... My parents rarely speak about my brother, who is far more dependent on them than I am. My family is disfunctional, like many families...I am the messenger in the family, though... Now that I think about. My mom will call me to talk to my dad (and vice versa), and my brother never talks to my parents so I'm always chasing him down to send him messages. I'm the translator too because none of them can discuss anything with each other without getting into an argument or standoff. /sigh
lol I'm libra rising too and this is exactly me. I am the mediator and the only one who they usually wont get in a fight with or who will compromise on things (or get them to compromise where they don't want to). IP: Logged |

Im a Scorp rising and i know i was/am always the one stirring up sh*t with my love of controversy and playing devil's advocate and starting arguments. my parents said i generally was a good kid growing up, except for "being a smart@$$ and disappearing all the time". i am the weirdo of the family, too. the blackest of the already black sheep lolIm also the oldest child. My little sister, the middle child, has Cap rising and she has always been the responsible one who does great in school and is involved in many activities and strives for things that turn out to be too difficult for her. She puts a lot of pressure on herself. My little brother, the youngest, has Virgo rising and he has always been the hellion who vandalizes things and destroys sh*t but gets away with it (as far as my parents go, legally is another issue lol) he doesnt give a damn about school and is just really laid back and apathetic about most things. Not really Virgo-ian of him, is it? I think the only one that applies is my sister. IP: Logged |

my parents' roles fit their rising signs, though.Dad's rising is Aquarius and he is always the goofy one talking about out-there things and generally being weird and buying gadgets and electronics and he is emotionally detached (aqua moon, too) Mom's rising is Cancer and she is definitely the nurturer, although she's always had to play the bad guy too because my dad refused to really discipline us lol IP: Logged |

I'm Virgo rising and I happen to be the oldest child. I think the two things go well together because I liked taking responsibility and being "the big sister". Yeah, I was a weird kid.My sister is Sagittarius rising and is definitely the unconventional-seeming one. IP: Logged |

I'm Sag rising. I was known as the loudmouth in the family. I was the kind of kid who would point and laugh at people in the grocery store. I also used to point at people and ask my mom "WHY IS THAT PERSON SO FAT?" Without realizing i'm hurting someones feelings.I still think it's funny laughing at people when their in there cars. They make odd faces. haha! IP: Logged |
