Even if you are on a VFR flight plan and are not instrument rated?

The FARs do not specify 'must be on an IFR flight plan', nor do they specify
that you need to be instrument rated to log actual.

Indeed, you can legally fly under VFR (even without any flight plan at all) as
long as the weather is as prescribed in 91.155. There is no mention of a
visible horizon...

OTOH, you may find yourself at odds with 91.13(a) or 91.113(b) if you have not
sufficiently prepared for the flight or don't have enough experience to safely
fly in the conditions...
