T O P I C R E V I E WSmilingHeartHey you lovely ladies and gents!I hope you're all doing great.I have an Ascendant question again and since you were super helpful the last time I thought I should try it again!So - I'm helping this friend of mine with her chart. She wants to analyze it. The problem is a lacking birth time.Now I'm trying to determine what her Rising Sign could be and I told her it wouldn't be that difficult (LOL). I've tried to put it in three categories.#1 : Physical characteristics#2 : First impressions#3 : placements of the planets in the housesI don't want to post a picture of her without permission (she wouldn't like it anyways) - so I'm gonna describe her here.She's average height,clear blue eyes,pretty, delicate features,ashy blonde, straight hairhigh forehead,small chin,heart-shaped faceShe looks Virgo-ish to me. At least that was my first instinct. But then I realized that she could be a Gemini ASC as well. The physical characteristic between the two Rising Signs are pretty much the same to me.She is outgoing and fun but that could just be her Gemini Sun conjunct Jupiter and a Virgo ASC would put her Sun in the 9th house which would fit her personality.On the other hand she has a very...clear look. Very...idk how to put it. The one thing that sets the two ASC apart to me is that...commercial appeal of Gemini Risings that makes them look more polished, I guess. But that would put a bunch of planets in the second house which I don't agree with!please HELP! lolShe really wants to read her chart.Any great suggestions, tips etc would be amazing and I'd be eternally grateful! Mercurian IntellectI know this may sound obvious, but has she tried asking her parents or other family members for her time of birth?SmilingHeartShe has. They can't find her birth certificate. I told her to get a new one but at this point I don't think I'll be getting a birth time from her any time soon.starmoonher ASC could be anything, guessing isn't very accurate, but this part of what you said "She is outgoing and fun " = definitely not a virgo rising. they are quiet and introverted (seemingly) when you come upon them. you might actually be too close to her to 'read' her ASC properly because - with you- she is probably her sun sign. maybe ask her what types of first impressions she hears from others - that is usually a great clueSmilingHeart quote:Originally posted by starmoon:her ASC could be anything, guessing isn't very accurate, but this part of what you said "She is outgoing and fun " = definitely not a virgo rising. they are quiet and introverted (seemingly) when you come upon them. you might actually be too close to her to 'read' her ASC properly because - with you- she is probably her sun sign. maybe ask her what types of first impressions she hears from others - that is usually a great clueOh man, I should have known that this is hard. I know that some astrologers can identify the Rising Sign by looking at major life events and houses but I'm no where close to being that professional.I'm probably biased when it comes to Virgo Risings bc I am one and I really come to life meeting new people. It's like acting and there's nothing more fun than talking to strangers. But I guess that's other parts of my chart doing that. She is really pushy lolTexting me at 1am asking relationship related astrology questions and about her chart and I'm just rummaging through the internet trying to find something that will help me decide her ASC.She kinda looks like Emma Watson but I guess that doesn't help. hmThanks though Mercurian IntellectIs her Mercury in Taurus, Gemini or Cancer?SmilingHeartIt's in Taurus.Mercurian Intellect quote:Originally posted by SmilingHeart:It's in Taurus.Yeah, it's really hard to 'know', what her Ascendant is without time of birth.Even the Moon isn't really accurate, but you can assume with that one.I also don't know her other placements.I asked for her Mercury because I'm trying to see if an Ascendant's depositor will help.SmilingHeart quote:Originally posted by Mercurian Intellect: Yeah, it's really hard to 'know', what her Ascendant is without time of birth.Even the Moon isn't really accurate, but you can assume with that one.I also don't know her other placements.I asked for her Mercury because I'm trying to see if an Ascendant's depositor will help.Her Moon is always in Cancer - no matter the time.

This is so great!I will go through that list now!NineThe Moon loves the Sun & the Asc. Outside of the lunation cycle, major life events will occur when pMoon conjuncts nSun &/or nAsc.Note the position of her pMoon when she scored a major career victory, or made a milestone.SmilingHeart quote:Originally posted by Nine:The Moon loves the Sun & the Asc.

European? German or Balto-Slavic? If German, a mutable Asc may still look like a solid Fixed Asc. The main difference, to me, between Gemini and Virgo Asc is in body's thickness - Earth is sturdier. Now, with Asc ruler in Taurus, you would get a more softer appearance, more elegant, think Uma Thurman. The limbs (Mercury) are lean, the movements are less springy, there's less of physical manifestations of nervous energy. Gemini is waifish, Virgo dainty and alert. Both have very bright, sparkling eyes, so you can tell they are clever. Virgo Asc often has quality hair - straight, darker hues. Take transits to Mercury - dynamic ones (0°,90° and 180°) - the receiving ones, from tSaturn and Jupiter and tUranus, Neptune and Pluto, see whether something significant happened in those times that correspond to transiting planet in question. Look out for DWs (tMercury to natal) as well, to pinpoint the influences in more detail. NoRainNoRainbowsIs she really good at sport?i noticed a lot of Gemini ascendants seem to excel at sports or any exercise thing they take up.SmilingHeart quote:Originally posted by VenusDiSirius:What's your friend's ethnicity?

Idt this will bring us closer to finding her ascendant but maybe it's a good idea to put those placements out there.
I come off Geminian/airy but the truth is I am a Virgo ASC through and through
If you want to know if she's truly a Virgo ASC, ask her those few questions :
* When she gets nervous or terribly mad, does her stomach starts to ache instantly ?
* From scale 1 to 10, how picky is about the kind of guys she dates ?
* When she is assigned as head of a certain project, how much does she insists on perfection and excellence ?
* Do people often mistake her for someone of a younger age ?
* When she meets someone for the first time, does she retreat back and observe them until she is directly asked to participate in a conversation ?
* Does she look or feel smaller/shorter than most women ?
* Does she radiate an image or a feel of a cynical professionalism/wisdom at first glance, even without meaning to ?
*Does she wear the scholar image of the sharp, intellectual and smart woman despite the truth of whether she is truly an intellectual person or not ?
* Does she feel a weird urge to help people at the most unusual situations ?
*Does she hold a special respect/affection towards the elder and those of special needs ?
* Does she suddenly get all shy, insecure and scared when in love ?
Note the position of her pMoon when she scored a major career victory, or made a milestone.
