Calculate my rising sign

Your rising sign is determined by the time and place of your birth. To figure out your ascendant, fill in the form below:

Are you wondering how to find your rising sign? Well, with our rising sign calculator, you need to know your birthplace, as well as the day and the exact time of your birth. Then, a study of the astronomical tables will follow to determine the location of your ascendant in the sky along the Eastern horizon at the time you were born.

The rising sign, also known as the cusp (or beginning) of the first astrological house, is indicated by the intersection of the horizon with the point of the ecliptic. In order to calculate it, you can use a computer program or use the Table of Houses, which indicates the degree of the ecliptic where the ascendant is located according to the sidereal time of the birth chart and the geographical latitude of the person's birthplace.

The Sun takes about a month to cross a zodiac sign, yet the Earth's rotation indicates that the sign that rises on the horizon changes every 2 hours. Your ascendant is therefore determined by the time and place of your birth. This is why someone born on the same day and year as you, is not necessarily like you at all!

In many cultures, the rising sign was used to determine a person’s life path, personality, and even their physical appearance. It was also thought to influence how others perceive us and how we navigate the world. The rising sign is often referred to as the "mask" we wear when interacting with others, as it shapes our outward demeanor and first impressions. Understanding your rising sign can provide valuable insights into your personality, relationships, and life journey, making it an essential part of any astrological reading.

What is my rising sign, and what does it mean? – It represents your deeper, inner self

According to Susan Taylor, our head astrologer, we tend to be more like our ascendant sign rather than our sun sign after the age of 30. Indeed, this probably explains why many of you don’t recognize yourselves in the description of your sign.

Rising signs

The rising sign is your "inner self", what you are intrinsically in the first astrological house. It’s located opposite the descendant, in house 7, which represents "me + the other", and therefore influences your relationships and love stories.

The description of a native's personality will be more complete if we look at the position of the Sun in their chart AND the position of their ascendant. We can have signs that are quite different, but which are complementary! If you do not recognize yourself in the description of your sun sign, it is possible that your rising sign has taken the upper hand on your personality, unless it is your Moon sign that predominates, this is particularly the case for many women.

What house is my rising sign in?

Your rising sign is the sign that was on the horizon at the moment of your birth, and it represents the way you present yourself to the world and your first impression on others. The house of your rising sign is the house that starts at the degree of your rising sign.

For example, if your rising sign is in Aries, and it is at 10 degrees, the house that starts at 10 degrees Aries is your first house. Your second house will start at the degree that follows, which would be 11 degrees, and so on. Knowing the house of your rising sign can give you insight into the areas of life where you are most likely to focus your energy and attention, as well as the themes and qualities that are important to your personal identity and self-expression.

💡 Common misconceptions about rising signs: 💡

To calculate mine, I only need my date and time of birth - FALSE

The sun doesn't rise at the same time in New York as in Sydney. The local time varies with the longitude of your place of birth, established in relation to the Greenwich meridian, which represents point 0. Latitude, too, allows you to locate a point on the earth from imaginary horizontal lines running from the Equator to the North and South. Hence, the importance of specifying your location to calculate your ascendant.

It doesn't matter if my birth time is approximate - FALSE

It's important to know the exact time of your birth to accurately define your ascendant. The zodiac is divided into 360°. An error of three or four minutes can result in a deviation of one degree and falsify the calculation. That's why twins born just a few minutes apart don't necessarily have the same ascendant. And don't forget to subtract one or two hours (summer/winter time) to get the calculation right.
