Okay, so I’ve been digging into this whole astrology thing lately, and I wanted to figure out what my chart looked like. I’m a Scorpio, which I already knew, but I wanted to get into the nitty-gritty, you know? I found out I’m a Virgo rising, and let me tell you, it’s been a bit of a head-scratcher.
Figuring Out My Rising Sign
First things first, I had to find out my exact birth time. I mean, down to the minute. This wasn’t easy. I rummaged through old baby books, called my mom (multiple times), and finally found my birth certificate tucked away in a box of old photos. Turns out, I was born at 6:17 AM. Who knew?
Then,I jumped online and found a free birth chart calculator, inputted all my info, and it came to my Rising is Virgo.
What Does This Even Mean?
Initially, I was confused. Scorpio and Virgo seem so different. Scorpios are supposed to be all intense and mysterious, right? And Virgos are, like, the organized, perfectionist types. It felt like two totally opposite personalities crammed into one person. How is this me?
- Scorpio Sun: This is my core personality, the deep, emotional, and sometimes secretive side of me. I’m passionate, I hold onto things, I’m like the quiet, observent person.
- Virgo Rising:The first impression. People maybe see me as practical, detail-oriented, and maybe a little reserved. They might not immediately see the Scorpio intensity lurking beneath the surface.
Putting it All Together
So I’ve been thinking a lot about how these two energies play out in my life. And it is started to make some sense:
- I realized that I do have a very analytical side. I love to plan things out, make lists, I noticed the details that other people miss. That’s gotta be the Virgo.
- At the same time, I’m still that deeply feeling Scorpio. I’m fiercely loyal to my friends and family, and I’m not afraid to get into the deep, emotional stuff.
It’s like the Virgo rising is the filter through which my Scorpio sun expresses itself. It tones down the intensity a bit, makes me a little more approachable, but the core Scorpio energy is still there, simmering underneath. I am starting to accepting the duality now!

It’s still a work in progress. It’s like two parts of my personality, I am starting to think I should keep exploring this stuff.
