Okay, so, Scorpio Sun, Aquarius Rising… I’ve been digging into this combination lately because, well, it’s my combination, and I’ve always felt like a walking contradiction. I wanted to see if I could make some sense of it.
I started by just, like, Googling everything. “Scorpio Sun Aquarius Rising,” “Scorpio personality,” “Aquarius Rising explained”… you know, the usual rabbit hole. I spent a good few hours just reading different interpretations and descriptions, trying to see what resonated.
My Deep Dive Process
I gathered a bunch of articles, forum posts, and even a couple of YouTube videos. Then, I started highlighting anything that felt true to my own experience. Things like:
- Intense emotions (Scorpio, duh!) but a detached way of showing them (Aquarius).
- A deep need for privacy and alone time, but also a craving for connection and community.
- Being super stubborn, but also really open-minded and interested in new ideas.
- Feeling like an outsider, even when I’m surrounded by people.
After I had all this stuff highlighted, I started to see some patterns. It was like, “Oh, that’s why I do that!” or “Okay, that makes sense now.” I even started journaling about it, just to get my thoughts out of my head and onto paper (or, well, onto my laptop screen, I use a notes App).
Then came the fun part. I try to do one activity every week to make sure I have some of the energy channelled. I find that I am better and my mood is great when I stick to this schedule.
Making it Real
It wasn’t enough to just read about it. I wanted to see how this Scorpio Sun, Aquarius Rising thing actually played out in my life. So, I started paying more attention to my reactions in different situations.
For example, I noticed that when I’m feeling overwhelmed, I tend to withdraw and get really quiet (Aquarius Rising masking the Scorpio intensity). But then, later, I might have a sudden burst of emotion or need to talk things through with someone I really trust (Scorpio Sun peeking through).
I find it interesting that, although I thought I knew myself, that there is so much more to know, and it’s okay to explore who I am.
I also started thinking about my relationships. I realized that I often keep people at arm’s length, even when I care about them deeply. It’s like I’m afraid of being vulnerable, but at the same time, I crave that deep connection. It’s a constant push and pull.
It’s still a work in progress, obviously. I’m not suddenly “figured out” just because I spent a week researching my astrological placements. But it’s definitely helped me understand myself a little better. And maybe, just maybe, it’ll help me navigate those internal contradictions a little more smoothly in the future.
