Hey Aries...what happens when your ASC is part of a kite? Meaning, the ASC is part of the partial grand sextile (with Moon & Mercury) opposed by Jupiter at the base (Moon-Mercury-Jupiter in grand trine).
I have not read much about Kite formations. I tend to break down aspects into sextiles and trines. Then I read them separately. Then find a link to energies.
The Asc is the head of our personality. It is what peaks out essentially.
Moon-Mercury are "speak my heart/mind" aspects and with expansion influencing Jupiter, there is a need to be heard by as many people as possible. As you are so sure that what you have to say is profound.
I see this aspect to the Asc as a confident speaker or one who is intellectually well-versed. However the Jupiter opposition does suggest an inability to see another's point of view.
At times you can be engaging, open minded and tolerant. But at other times you can be so convinced in the "rightness" of your point if view, that you can appear judgmental, preachy and self righteous (that's the opposition effect)
Also the moody Moon is further enlarged by the Jupiter connection. So as you feel, so will your interaction with the outside world influence this.
So most people will have to first be clear about your feelings(Moon) before asking your opinion. As your mood affects your reasoning ability(Mercury) and that comes out loud and clear (Jupiter)- especially when all is interacting on the Asc.
Have you looked at midpoints?
In my case for instance my Asc is = Moon/Mercury midpoint. So what I feel and think comes across in my body language. And most people think me articulate (Mercury). But they also know that I am moody(Moon).
