Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ascendant (rising sign) in astrology?
The ascendant is the zodiac sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the moment of your birth. It determines how other people perceive you and your outward appearance.
Why do I need my exact birth time?
The ascendant changes approximately every 2 hours. A difference of just a few minutes can completely alter the result. That is why the exact time is essential.
What is the difference between sun sign and ascendant?
Your sun sign (based on birth date) represents your inner essence. The ascendant represents your social mask — how you present yourself to the world.
How does the ascendant affect my relationships?
The ascendant influences the first impression you make. It also determines the configuration of your astrological houses, affecting all areas of life including love and partnerships.
