Both are very friendly and gregarious people. They seem to always be ina good mood, although I knwo both well enough that they tend to cover up their bad moods with a sweet, disarming Piscean smile. They are rather quiet if left alone, but in larger groups they tend to come alive. Neither really dominate a conversation or a room with their presence, but they has a way with getting along with other people effortlessly that I, a Virgo rising, just don't possess.

Neither are really initative takers, and both seem to need other people around them for them to come out of their shell. They both LOVE attention but they don't come across as self-centered. A little needy (especially the Gem) at times, yes, but not excessive demanding.

I have found both tend to be very sensitive to how other people react to them, often thinking they did something to make the person act in such-and-such way. I have many times assured them on one occasion or other to not take other people's behavior so personally.

One thing that stands out most about her is the way she always (one way or another) gets blamed for anything that goes wrong. Anything. I totally don't get it but then looking at it objectively she kind of puts herself there with gossip and mild manipulation. Very curious.

She is in love with a man who despises her but stays with her because she supports him and his lifestyle. They have been together for over 20 years. I think her Pisces rising keeps it alive so that she can eventually even the score but hes so old and sick he'll probably die first.

In her prime she was a stunningly beautiful, delicate blond looking Pisces. She is now grossly overweight. Her addiction is food.

There is nobody like her when you're sick or struggling with your conscience. She is generous to a fault (Sag/Sun) but ultimately expects it back somewhere down the line.

My mother - irritating, and smothering at times, but she's a good person, albeit irritatingly slow, and pays zero attention to detail.

His mother swears he was born at 8:45 am, but I find it improbably that he could be a Sag rising. I don't fhink he fits the physical profile.

His face is roundish rather than oblong, and he has beautiful dreamy eyes deep enough to drown in.

Sue, can you elaborate a little on this friend of your's? Is he really "scary?" My husband is a Scorpio too, but completely harmless unless provoked. He certainly doesn't come across as scary, but as the most mellow person you'll ever meet. Are you sure of your friend's rising sign? From all the Pisces and Pisces rising I know, scary is about the opposite on the scale of what they are.

Sorry Yin, I don't mean to hog your thread. I'm just really intrigued by this. Please forgive me. I'm trying so hard to figure certain things out about my marriage that I eagerly follow any clue that crosses my path..

Now I doubt that she would be 12 hours off which would place my rising in Virgo.

Nove, I used to think my mom, a Gem-Gem, was a Pisces rising, and she's very irritating at times. Freidnly and cheerful, but real flakey and tactless, tends to say things that aren't that appropriate and often doesn't follow what you're saying to her (so you have to repeat, explain, repeat again, explain is greater detail, give up, change the topic, etc.). I wonder now if she's actually a Sag rising. She has some of the facial freatures of a Pisces, but it's hard for me to discern - I think I look very piscean in some ways I have a pIscen moon conjunc tmy DC. It's confusing trying to figure out what's astrology and what's simply genetics.

At my age (23) men that aren't "blinded" by their need for validation, ego-stroking, and a big pair of t**s are hard to come by. I can say he's my only male friend that isn't blind. He sees me. And that's rare. Love him to death.

I dated a pisces rising seriously, and he was the most jealous man I ever knew. Very vindictive and nothing sweet about him when riled, and I believe water risings have long memories for any kind of hurt or abuses which are somewhat exaggerated. Jealousy and attention to other men, or from other men ought to be avoided, because it's noticed. Every single thing is noticed by Pisces risings.

They remember every detail and feel overwhelmed by memories, almost smothered with feelings. drinking is big with the pisces rising I have met, more so than neptune conjunct ascendant. I have neptune there and I do like a drink now and then but I can control my thoughts and memories so they don't overwhelm me.
I don't have to blot them out, but it's tempting.

Pisces and Aqua risings both care VERY much about what other people think of them, in terms of status, and morality. You really have to be grade A to attract one and stay that way. There is no love without stability and a future because instinctively Pisces knows that's what's needed. For that reason I have only seen good matches with stable, financially settled people.
