Libra Rising
In Astrology, the planet that rules the Ascendant is the "chart ruler" and the lens through which all other aspects of the chart are focused and considered. The Ascendant (aka Rising Sign) represents how we perceive our ideal self to be, as well as how we want to be perceived by others. It is both a mask we wear and the lens through which we perceive the world. Even if you have a poorly aspected, dark, and brooding Scorpio Moon, you may still perceive yourself as an optimist if your Rising Sign is Sagittarius (the eternal optimist).
People with Libra rising tend to be charming, refined, attractive in some manner (usually a symmetrical face), gracious, appealing, indecisive, cooperative, sociable, creative, artistic, perhaps musically inclined, harmonious, and wanting to please and not make waves.
You have a difficult time saying "no." You seek the approval and support of others. You may "need" the company of others and hate to be by yourself. You are apt to try too hard to please others and compromise your own principles in order to be liked or to be popular. Yet you can also be very self-centered.
You cannot stand disorder and conflict and want everything to be balanced, poised, and harmonious. You like looking at all sides of an issue before making up your mind. You love to compare things and find analogies. You enjoy argument, yet you can be very diplomatic with a friendly exterior. Looks are important to you. You tend to attract whatever it is that you need without any real effort on your part.
Spiritual lesson to learn: Decisiveness, especially in relationships. Venus rules Libra, so Venus will be important in your chart.
