All the planets were in a special arrangement at the instant you breathed your first breath. Your “birth chart” (or “natal chart”) is a snapshot of the sky taken at the precise moment of your birth and is based on the exact time, place, and day of your arrival. According to astrologers, birth charts can offer profound insight into a person’s personality, identity, and drive, as well as opportunity, timing, and even the recurrent themes they have encountered throughout their lives.
Perhaps I’m a little (a lot) biased, but I find birth charts to be quite remarkable; they combine dozens upon dozens of data points to show the sky as a tidy and organized circle accented by various shapes and symbols (representing the planets and celestial bodies). While the placement of the planets varies from person to person, the birth chart’s overall designa perfect 360-degree circleremains constant. And the Rising Sign is the one who rules that constant shape.
The zodiac sign that was rising (or ascending, which is why it’s sometimes referred to as the “Ascendant”) in the eastern horizon when you were born is referred to as the Rising Sign. Even while the stars appear static to the unaided eye, the sky above actually changes very quickly. The Rising Sign is also a highly delicate location because the Ascendant switches zodiac signs every two hours, thus you must know your precise birth time in order to determine it.
Check your birth certificate or text a parent to confirm your precise time of birth, then visit your chosen astrology website or app (I suggest TimePassages, which has been around since the 1980s) to see your birth chart and identify your Rising Sign.
