IN The last astrological guide We looked at what a mole sign is and whatever a sign and sun signs each represent. Where your sun sign - also commonly called zodiac sign - is the most important aspect of your birth chart, and represents your core, then your meter represents your inner emotional life. In addition, the ASCendant who throws light over a completely third aspect of the one you are.

In this guide, we must look at what the ascendant is for a size and what your ascendant can reveal about yourself. Without revealing too much I can guarantee that it can be some of an eye opener to get to know his ascendant.

What is an Ascendant and how do I find my?

In the last astrological guide on a motion sign, we dived down in what a birth chart is. In addition to mapping your solar and a motion sign, your birth chart can also tell you what your ascendant is. Your Ascendant is the constellation that is about to rise on the eastern horizon seen from the time and the place you were born. Therefore it becomes in English most often called Rising sign. There are many websites where you can see your birth chart by entering the year, the date, time and place of your birth.

To find your Ascendant, it is important that you know the time of your birth. Where a meter wander from one constellation to another about every 2 days, then it goes a little faster with the ascendant. It changes for characters every 2 hours on average. However, this varies, and the further away from the equator, you are, the greater the variation - it can vary from 30 minutes to 3 hours.

It is of course enormously annoying if you are eager to get to know her ascendant, but for one reason, do not have the opportunity to find out what time was born. My experience in these cases is that astrologers call for you to make a list of the ascendants that you can potentially have, read about their characteristics, and reasoning themselves to which one must best fit one's self - you can with Benefit do together with a family member or a related who knows one good. In order to do this, you must first understand what the Ascendant is for a size, and we look at now.

What does my ascendant tell me?

Your Ascendant is the person you are outward - your social personality. Therefore, the ascendant is also often referred to as "your social mask". The Ascendant shows how to handle everyday problems and how you naturally respond to external inputs and situations in the first place. If you sometimes feel other people do not perceive you as a person who has the typical characteristics that your sun sign has, the explanation can easily lie in that they see your ascendant.

I can use myself as an example. My sun sign is the weight, and weights are typically seen as optimistic and conflict clouds that love to be social and who will do everything that everyone is happy and everything is in balance. While the weight is my inner core, then my Ascendant Capricorn is. With Capricorn as Ascendant you can be perceived as a serious person who is targeted and would like to spend more time at work than leisure. You can also easily be considered as a slightly angular, disciplined and realistic person with tendency for pessimism. When I found out that the Capricorn was my ascendant, there were suddenly more things that made sense. It went up to me that it is the sides of myself, I show forward because during my upbringing it was the behavior that gave the best response and worked best in relation to my surroundings. And therefore, it is, of course, people perceive me to begin with, even though it does not necessarily reflect my innermost core.

In addition, my way sign is Krebsen, which means I am very sensitive. It has long been a contrast-filled experience to be perceived as a disciplined, angular or realistic person when you are simultaneously built on an ocean of turbulent feelings and utopian day dreams.

Try transferring this analysis to your own ascendant, sun and way sign. Explaining it that many times in your life have experienced that people either misinterpreted you or simply just saw some other sides of you than the core that you know about? Although it can be frustrating that people do not immediately see one's core right away, this "social mask" of an Ascendant can help put the way you are perceived in perspective and explain it. It can be an eye-opening recognition, but also a calming and affirmative revelation.

The Ascendant is not just a mask

Your Measure Sign represents your inner feelings as well as deeper needs and desires, and it is therefore not a side of yourself, as everyone gets to see - most often it is like the Moon yourself: There will always be a 'Dark Side of the Moon'Who only you know about because it can not be displayed or explained.

Our sun sign, on the other hand, is part of ourselves, as we work in becoming more faithful in our lives. During our upbringing, we learned that we could better adapt our surroundings by taking our Ascendant mask on and choosing to show certain sides of ourselves. Having reviewed many of the social trials, life offers, during his adult life, you will often begin to behave more and more like its sun sign out for.

However, the ASCendant should not only be seen as a mask. It is not a side of yourself that you can completely take off, because it is part of the one you are. These are sides of yourself, who are really part of your full creature. What the ascendant shows is still a part of you. Many astrologers even believe that the Ascendant additionally can show you what your soul's deepest purpose is. Here are the theory that your sun sign represents what you are learning to become, while the ascendant can be seen as the way your sun sign will achieve the teaching. In other words, the ASCendant reveals both the personality traits you immediately show the surroundings at the same time as it reveals the purpose of your soul.

It may seem a little abstract to talk about one's soul's purpose, let me give some examples: If your ascendant is in the characters, you will surely appear as a generous, sensitive and sympathetic person who would like to help where you can . Some people might utilize this. The purpose of your soul can therefore, among other things, be better at finding a golden middleway where you help others, but also take into account yourself. Is your Ascendant in the Sagittarius, you might be perceived as a positive person who always wants to explore and go on new adventures - whether it is physical travel or practical projects. The purpose of your soul will therefore, among other things, be to continue exploring the world, which will get your spirituality to flourish.
