T O P I C R E V I E WAmi AnneHow Can You Figure Out Your Ascendant if You Don’t Know Your Time of Birth?By amiann | Published: February 29, 2012 | This is not terribly hard to do. You need an Astrologer who will spend time with you. That would be the first requirement. If you know the general time it would be easier. However,if you know nothing an Astrologer could still figure it out with your help.Each sign is very different. This is more so for the signs which are next to each other on the Astrology chart.For example, a Libra Ascendant is very different than a Scorpio Ascendant for people in the Astrological know. For the person reading who needs help, I will give some guidelines. The Ascendant is like a mask that is stuck on.It is more like a pair of sunglasses which one cannot remove.One does not notice as one is so accustomed .Others can see our Ascendant before we. However, with a little attention to the matter, one can help oneself find one’s Ascendant. One must notice one’s first reactions to situations.If someone thwarts you, what do you do? Do you step back and watch? Do you jump in with fists flying? Do you go in to a shell and can’t speak? The Ascendant is the mask we wear to the outside world but it is not a mask, as I said. It is an integral part of ourselves but used in our reactions and responses to the world. To our intimates, they would see our moon. To our employers, they would see our sun. The Ascendant comes in to play in more superficial social gatherings and daily social intercourse.Watch yourself from afar. Look as if you are in the sky looking down at yourself. I think you should be able to figure out your Ascendant.------------------Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/doommlordi have to say that even though it is a very general solution and not completly reliable it does work! using this and some good old-fashioned introspection i managed to make a chart for mebut after some time i tried out other possible ascendants (from what i thought i showed and from the question i asked my friends about myself)eventually i got my birth certificate and found out that the VERY FIRST chart i made with the EXACT birth time and all was the right one its just my experience and finding an asc that way might not work for everyonegood article still ^^someone should put this on "basic astrology" as a usefull tip Ami AnneThanks DL. I think the important part is to try to observe yourself in action.I had an issue where I had to assert myself.I noticed how naturally diplomatic I am. I can step back and consider someone's feelings.I always do.It is part of me. I could see that I am very Libra like. The ASC is kind of an effortless part of us but it is hard to see cuz we are so accustomed to it.It is kind of like breathing in that way in my opinion.------------------Passion, Lust, Desire. Check out my journal http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/bonadea33Ami,It was more times that I was "running" from ASC Virgo to ASC Libra, until one man, doing different things with Esoteric has rectificated my birth time. Finally, I was and I am ASC Libra. Now is new problem: because of my health situation I had to send few drops of my blood to my niece (to other country), because she knows one man, who does diagnosis and also he is psychic. All is right, except he wrote that I was born at 6:45 pm, what means I am now ASC Scorpio. As you write, Scorpio and Libra are totally different people. I know many women with ASC Scorpio (my Sun in Taurus) and almost all of them are hot for sex. I am not, except there is really Great Love. I have asked one woman with Scorpio ASC: can she live without sex? She said: NO!Scorpio ASC people have deep, charming eyes: I call them Chinese eyes.Libra ASC look (in common): oval face, big brown eyes, curly hair and middle height. Libra ASC likes good looking people and good looking things. That means, I am typical Libra ASC!

Every time I ask she just says, "I don't know, I was kind of busy!" lolShe says it was somewhere between 8 and 9 am so i tested it out with 8 - giving me pisces asc and 9 being aquarius. That's why i usually just use 8:30 heheheI had a hard time trying to figure it out since my sun is aquarius and every time i'd read anything about aqua asc, i would automatically go - well yeah this is sooo me, but then pisces asc fit just as well. I had a hard time separating the sun and asc, but how I finally decided that it was indeed pisces, was that I felt such a strong affinity and understanding of the sign, that i just KNEW i had to have more pisces in my chart then just a venus in pisces in 1st. Also I'm a hopeless daydreamer, I love animals, poetry, music, dancing, dresses, water-colours, and i'm somewhat psychic....lolI often get told by people who don't know me that I seem kind of quiet and dark and moody, which is really only a part of me, i guess that's the outer shell(...or asc) that people see. I don't really think a Aqua asc would be thought of in that way at all but quiet and somewhat dark makes complete sense to me from a pisces perspective.Kannon McAfeeI have trouble with the use of the term 'mask' entering into the definition of the Ascendant, since it implies something superficial, an artifice, something contrived or taken on as a role. This only applies if one looks at it from a metaphysical standpoint across lifetimes in which one takes on a role in a particular lifetime in which case the entire birth chart and all it implies becomes a temporal role. Maybe this 'mask' notion helps some astrologers, but it doesn't help me as an experienced chart rectifier.The Asc shows the embodiment of the Solar-lunar/male-female energy polarity. It is biological and observable. The Asc/1st house rules the head/body of the native, so there are clues in the head to what sign/planets are at the Asc. The problem is astrologers tend to be primarily metaphysically focused (right-brain) and overlook observable patterns in the people before them.Yes, the Asc is you in action, your modus operandi. And yes, it is subjective, but subjective doesn't mean vague and ill-defined. You are very correct in saying that there is a distinct difference between the signs. A person whose birth time says they should have 0* Leo (or any degree of Leo) on the Asc, but who isn't Leonine, is not a Leo rising person. Period. It is observable in the head/body and personality.------------------World Class Rectification Specialisthttp://kannonmcafee.wordpress.com/naturalbeigeI would suggest that astrology fanatics get a copies of David Anrias' "Man of the Zodiac," and Sasha Fenton's "What Time Were You Born?". Anrias' book focuses on appearances on different decants of ascendants, while Fenton writes about how the sun placed in different houses affect the demeanor of the person.FaithAlso, The Zodiac by Degrees by Martin Goldsmith is a good one.SaggiMC http://www.astrologycom.com/ascalc.html Doux Rêve^ Depends on your time zone I think, because it doesn't work for me.* I find your article quite helpful Ami, that's actually how I "confirmed" my ASC, by looking at myself from the outside when I interact whith people (in a social setting, because with family members I usually act more like my Moon/Sun).Ami Anne quote:Originally posted by Kannon McAfee:I have trouble with the use of the term 'mask' entering into the definition of the Ascendant, since it implies something superficial, an artifice, something contrived or taken on as a role.

here's a pickle, what if you are on the cusp of libra/ scorpio but have venus in libra or pluto in scorpio on ascendant?

I find your article quite helpful Ami, that's actually how I "confirmed" my ASC, by looking at myself from the outside when I interact whith people (in a social setting, because with family members I usually act more like my Moon/Sun).
