Famous Aries Risings
Aries rising is the first impression of someone direct, energetic and unafraid. Famous Aries risings include Beyoncé, Barbra Streisand, Bette Midler and Billie Eilish.
The Rising sign, or Ascendant, is the sign that was coming up over the eastern horizon at the moment of birth. It describes how a person meets the world and how the world first sees them. Aries rising, ruled by Mars, meets the world head-on: quick, frank and full of energy, the first through the door.
The Rising sign changes about every two hours, so it can only be known with a birth time. This page shows only charts with a time on record, rated AA or A.

What Aries Rising means: the guide
What they share
All four are singers who took charge of their own careers early. Beyoncé, with her Ascendant at the very last degree of Aries, runs her own company and plans her shows and films in detail. Barbra Streisand produced and directed her own films at a time when very few women did. Bette Midler walked into a bathhouse cabaret in 1970 and made it the start of a six-decade career. And Billie Eilish, with Aries rising at 5 degrees, became famous as a teenager on her own terms, writing and producing with her brother. Each of them has a Capricorn Midheaven too: a public role built for the long term. For more on this placement, read the full Aries Rising guide.
