Accuracy influenced by the entire chart.
A key theme in scorpio risings is wishing to go unseen (unless they have prominent 10th H placements). They hate being perceived. Their entire lives the worst is assumed of them. Often, these negative assumptions come based on nothing but their appearance.
The scorpio risings may not be able to tell what it is about them that is making people respond to them in a negative way. Other people, may not be able to pin it exactly either. It is usually subconscious.
Physically, all the scorpio risings I know appear very different. I do have a few shared physical traits & observations:
πͺ»Sharper features. Prominent chins - broad or pointy.
πͺ» People tend to associate gothic and darker aesthetic with scorpio. However, this brings attention, generally scorpios have a love-hate relationship with attention. It is more often the gothic, darker style is embraced by sag rising w sag Pluto.
πͺ» The scorpio risings, I know, keep a basic and comfortable style. They appear well kept. They stick out for their physical features not their clothing.
πͺ» When they do decide to dress up, it would fall under βsilent luxuryβ. Expensive or eye-catching accessory (necklace, watch, earrings) but a black or a darker bold colour outfit.
πͺ» Makeup and hair is almost always natural. The women donβt tend to like makeup that much either. However, all this can change if they have placements that do love to stand out.
πͺ» Often, muscular or on the thin side.
πͺ» They may be attractive in a way that creates jealously. This leads to poor treatment from those who donβt know you.
πͺ» Or they may be conventionally unattractive, thus society treats them poorly.
Positive placements such as Jupiter in first house could change the above drastically.
Ex: River Phoenixβs natal asc is scorpio with jupiter & neptune in first house. He was attractive in a dreamy and soft way. Neptune helped balance out the sharpness of a scorpio asc. & Jupiter generally brings luck in whichever house it is placed.
Scorpio is a fixed sign that is about transformation. These individuals tend to impulsively make changes (they are traditionally ruled by mars). Then, quickly become emotional about the change made (they are a water sign). If they have a well placed mars, they may make more calculated changes than impulsive.
Disregarding other placements, scorpio rising is more predator than prey. They silently observe, take notes, analyze, and never forget.
Now, when we take into consideration other placements, this can change almost entirely.
For ex. pair a scorpio asc with a pisces moon. They will become less observant. In times of boredom or when reality is too painful, they will enter the dream world in their mind for comfort.
Yet, even the least observant scorpio ascendant is observant. They repress a lot of emotions especially anger. Instead of expressing and communicating their feelings, they will observe the situation or person. They will not forget what was done. And they arenβt likely to let you know until theyβve decided theyβre done with you.
Their repressed anger can lead to an angry outburst. The scorpio asc can be very cruel when hurt. They may say and do almost anything to hurt the other person. This could lead to guilt afterwards. However, you arenβt likely to hear an apology from a scorpio asc. From their perspective, they were only hurting you back even though you may not know what you did. This can lead to some toxic relationships throughout the scorpio asc personβs life. A well placed mercury and/or mars could change the above.
The angry outburst will lead the scorpio asc to be blamed and villainized. This is the placement you hear people say, βI had a bad feeling from the startβ. People love to paint themselves as the victims of a scorpio asc. And when they were never clued in on their wrongdoings, they may genuinely believe it.
Despite, the conflict they are bound to endure through their lives, they dislike conflict. But conflict will find them.
For ex: My scorpio rising friend was removed from a gc by her childhood friends. She was surprised and discovered it was because her relative dumped one of their aunts. She had no involvement but somehow caught blame.
This is the worst part of being a scorpio ascendant. People jump to negative conclusions. Scorpio asc rarely get the benefit of doubt. This may manifest as people feeling you are intimidating, insincere, jealous/angry, etc.
At an older age, they often gain something that gives otherβs something to be jealous of. This depends on the entire chart. Possible examples: Career, they often reach high positions and/or have careers that indicate wealth (Vet, Dr., Lawyer, etc).
They can marry someone that makes otherβs jealous as well. Taurus is their 7th, their partners are generally stable, beautiful, generous, indulgent and spoil them. This will be drastically influenced by the venus placement.
They arenβt doomed to never be understood. People with compatible placements will gravitate towards them. When someone understands them, they will be as close as can be. They are very protective and loving. They hate to let people go even when they must for their peace.
