What is your ascension?
Your rising or ascendant is the sign that was ascending on the eastern horizon at the moment of your birth. It refers to the picture you put out into the world, or the mask you wear, and it provides insight into your abilities, talents, and tactics for navigating life. If you’ve ever felt like people don’t recognize you as your sun sign right away, it’s because they’re probably seeing your rising.
If your rising is in an air sign:
– Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius: you are mentally quick, inquisitive, friendly, and prefer to express yourself verbally. You often approach life with the desire to understand the meaning of what or whom you encounter, and that includes being intentional with your movement.
If your rising is in a fire sign:
– Aries, Leo, or Sagittarius: you are action-oriented, confident, and often blunt. You often have great vitality and physical energy, especially when striving to make your mark in the world. Trust me, you’ll want to tap into that physical energy in your next workout.
If your rising is in an earth sign:
– Taurus, Virgo, or Capricorn: you are matter-of-fact and tend to focus on the material world. You often have a steadfast approach to life that can be a grounding force (especially during stressful times) for many.
If your rising is in a water sign:
– Cancer, Scorpio, or Pisces: you are sensitive, empathetic, and easily influenced by your environment (say hello to more plants in your home) (say hello to more plants in your home). You often have an approach to life that is deeply rooted in your emotional body.

Is it possible to find your rising sign without knowing your date of birth?
You must know your exact birth time in order to establish your rising sign. Because the rising sign changes every two hours, this is the case. Fortunately, your birth time is printed on your birth certificate.
How can I figure out what my sun and moon signs are?
Your Moon Sign is a reflection of your innermost feelings and ideas. It’s as if you have an internal monologue that expresses all of your emotional demands and sentiments. Check your Moon Sign horoscope every day to observe how it impacts your emotions.
What do the terms Sun, Moon, and Rising imply?
The solar sign influences our ego and motives, the moon governs our emotional character, and the ascendant or rising sign governs the energy we expend in the world. According to astrology, when these signs are combined, they provide a concise blueprint of your personality.
Who is a rising Scorpio?
The Scorpio rising person has powerful, seething emotions that are typically hidden. Others find you intriguing and secretive if this describes you; you appear to purposefully turn on the charm for them. On the birth chart, someone born under this zodiac sign is at the ascendant.
What does it mean to have Aquarius rising in your horoscope?
If you’re born under the sign of Aquarius, you’re likely to be thought of as intelligent, innovative, and humanitarian. Some people mistakenly believe that Aquarius is a water sign, however it is actually the third air sign (after Gemini and Libra) and a symbol of the water bearer. This sign is about sharing the water rather than being the water; it’s about being a part of the community rather than being the water. You’re also recognized for being an outspoken individual who isn’t hesitant to flaunt your freak flag. Uranus, your ruling planet, is as unconventional as you are.
What’s the difference between my two rising signs?
Every two hours, the ascendant switches zodiac signs. Because the sun rises and sets at different times throughout the year, someone born at 10 a.m. in April will have a quite different ascendant than someone born at 10 a.m. in November.
Fun fact: Your ascendant will be the same sign as your Sun sign if you were born at sunrise (or within two hours of it) (e.g., Taurus with a Taurus risingor a “double Taurus”). Because the planets are in different houses, someone born at the same time as you but in a different time zone may have an altogether different birth chart. It’s the difference between Bradley Cooper in The Hangover II (which could be a raunchy Aries rising) and a somber drama like Silver Linings Playbook (a sensitive Cancer rising, perhaps).
