Your rising sign, explained

Why your birth time matters, and what the sign on the horizon says about how you meet the world.

Sunrise over the desert

Your Sun sign is where the Sun was when you were born. Your rising sign, or Ascendant, is the sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at that exact minute. It changes about every two hours, which is why your birth time matters so much. It shapes the houses of your chart and describes how you first meet the world.
