Pisces rising gives off a dreamy, gentle and slightly elusive vibe. You come across as soft, compassionate and a touch mysterious, the kind of presence that seems to drift a little above the ordinary world.
What Pisces rising means
Your rising sign, or ascendant, is the zodiac sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the exact moment and place of your birth. It governs the impression you make, your instinctive style and the lens through which you first meet the world, the mask over your Pisces sun core.

Your rising sign matters because it is the first thing anyone meets, often before they reach your Pisces sun core. A Pisces ascendant shapes your style, your body language and the instant read people get, which is why two people with the same sun sign can come across completely differently.
