Many people around here still doubts about Taylor's rising sign so I'm going to give my own conclusion: at least for me she is a
Rising with that
Sun. Why? I'm gonna write my reasons for my ending choice for her:
1. With the sign of the lion rising, Sun and Mercury both fall in the 5th house (the meaning of this house is related with creativity in all their expressions as art for example) and that would explain her artistic skills and inclinations.
2. Being the Sun ruled in its own house and as the regent of the 1st house /Ascendant would explain the shine we all can see inside and out of the stage. In a few words, it makes a true artist with a big star in its presence. Maybe also the Sun is making a trine with the Ascendant and that's an aspect that gives success but we have to got a rectified chart.
3. In many cases Mercury in the 5th gives a tendency to got a natal talent for singing and it seemed to me a good fact (I got it on my natal chart and I don't know if I'm at the tall of an Adele but I can sing very well to not be a professional)
4. Some astrologers say that we tend to be attracted to people with characteristics of the opposed sign of our rising (in her case it would be Aquarius/Uranus type and she had relationships with Aquarian guys as Harry Styles, Taylor Lautner and Ed Sheeran but this last as a friend, not always necessarily as a boyfriend).
5. If you didn't knew about it, many people with Leo Rising have the tendency to love to be in love and to be loved for someone who makes them feel as the only person in this world. It might have generated a problem about her ego in relationships also this can explain her current status about relationships with so many guys (Venus in Aquarius = a Venus ruled by Uranus can be also a big help for this situation in someone, more if Venus is dominant in the whole chart).
6. Her Venus falls in the 6th (main meanings of this house are wealth and work) and her profession would be of the Venusian type (she works with art and being a hardworker). The effect of the planet increases in her life if its dominant on the whole chart as I said before.
Anyway I'm no one to deny the other chart because it is a good theory that Mercury is in the 1st is conjunct with the Cap rising and also it is a high aspect for singing but there are other points that I try to relate with her but I can't as the Sun in the 12th to put an example.
Personally I love Taylor because her music (since TS, Fearless until 1989, this last didn't like it so much to me as the others) and I'm not her fan but I keep following her after years and despite sometimes I'm disaccord with some of her decisions in the last years.
Well, I can say that by the moment. Sorry if I'm mistaken but I believe more this chart than the other for all the things that I explained before.
Now yes, until the next time guys!
