Hi, I was born at home, and my mom's memory is a bit fuzzy surrounding my actual birth time. The best estimate places my ascendent and first house in close proximity to several planets.
The chart I use with that birth time feels true to my personality and life events, but I've always wondered if I do look like the ascendent on this chart or the one for the next sign. I also wonder if having so many planets close to the ascendant shape my features, so that I don't resemble any one sign. If it isn't too much trouble, I'm curious as to which ascendant I most look like. Taken a few years ago
Taken this morning Thanks =) IP: Logged |

No idea. I don't know how to translate this yet. My guess would be Cancer rising.If you study MBTI I would guess your type to be ENFP. IP: Logged |

I totally got a Cancer vibe from you, too... You look very warm and inviting. After Cancer, I would say Leo or Taurus. You have a very pretty, cherubic face. IP: Logged |

Capricorn AC.. and Gemini Moon... You look exactly the same years later!! Very youthful The only other placement I know that always looks young - is Virgo Venus. IP: Logged |

Hmm, well, you could try to see if u can identify it for yourself. Go to librarising.com then click on astrology and then click on rising signs.First thing I thought when i saw ur pic is u look exactly like a pisces girl i know. So i was like eh, maybe she has pisces rising. But that is your moon so i guess not. I also thought virgo bc u look very slightly like 2 virgos i know but i rly dont think it's virgo though. Maybe for ur sun sign but not ur rising. I'm going to say gemini rising. You look like 2 geminis i know, and u have a certain youthfulness in ur eyes that geminis have, but i can tell ur not a gemini sunsign though. So my guess is gemini rising. I guess if i had to guess what sun sign u are i would say a virgo. By the way i dont see a hint of scorpio in u lol, so i really doubt i is scorpio. Scorpio influence=deer in headlights expression.

Thank you for the responses =) I am a Sag Sun, and also have Mercury/Mars/Neptune in Sag. Going by the estimated birth time, I am a Sag rising with Mercury and Neptune conj Asc and Sun on the cusp of the 12th/1st. My Pisces moon is in the 3rd, using this time. Asc ruler Jupiter, in Leo in the 8th, and MC in Libra at 4*. I've often wondered though, if I look more like a Cap Asc which would then have Saturn in Virgo as my chart ruler. Even with the estimated birth time being correct, most of the first house would be occupied with Capricorn which may be why I don't look much like a Sag rising. Interesting that Mercury influence, Pisces and Virgo are most visible, which tells me my Pisces Moon in the 3rd and Neptune/Mercury conjunctions to Sun are strong. Would having squares and oppositions to the Moon, make its energy stronger? I thought that because my Moon is a singleton with harsh aspects, its energy would be diluted. Lol for any trace of Scorpio influence, I do have Venus and Uranus in Scorpio with Pluto sextile my Sun and Asc if the birth time is correct. My mom is a Scorpio Sun with a stellium, and my daughter is a Scorpio Asc, Pluto in the 1st, Sun/Venus in the 8th. They both have that intense look in their eyes. I think my Scorpio Venus shows up most in my personality, taste in clothes, and maybe in the dark hair.

yeah, well like i said, i'm a sag rising and we have features in common. something to do with the shape of the mouth, and with some slight modification the bottom half of that third pic could be me. oh i just thought of a good sight. elbert wade i think is his name? he does all the general appearance attributes and the decans as well. i'll get you a link.and my moon is a singleton harshly aspected. i'm not sure if it makes it stronger, but maybe i don't know what you mean by stronger. mine is taurus in the 4th so in some ways i think i'm like extra super duper sensitive (and i'm extremely sensitive to the moon cycle) but in most ways i'm just very emotionally unwavery and grounded (i feel most comfortable processing my feelings but then letting them go completely and being still). anyway pisces moon would be very sensitive too. my harsh aspects seem to challenge me but my taurus just digs its heels in deeper. but i do think singletons are stronger in themeselves so that we can work through/with them so it wouldn't surprise me if all aspects to them were meant to highlight them to that end.

Lol i swear i was going to say sag sun, but then i changed it to virgo. You look too cheerful for a virgo sun. I dunno, i guess you could try the librarising site i gave you and the descriptions the other person gave you. Maybe it is true that because of all the things in your 1st house it is hard to tell.I think it's cool though, that we all guessed along the same lines: virgo/cap, pisces/cancer, gemini. IP: Logged |

Looking at the 1st photo I thought Virgo but then the second one seemed a almost Libra like with Neptune in the 1st house. The shape of your face reminds me Aries but only in the 2nd photo could I see that. Don't know if that helps at all! IP: Logged |

I have a thing about Capricorn risers. I have this idea that I can spot them from a mile away. It's something in their face that gives them away. Their noses tend to be long and prominent. They look very serious. There is a certain, distinct openness to their faces. Take a look : http://www.librarising.com/astrology/risingsigns/capricornrising2.html Now you know what I mean? Looking at your picture now and comparing it with your aspects, Sagittarius rising makes perfect sense. You have that Sagittarian cheerfulness, sparkly eyes, and that distinct, Sagittarius pointy chin that is just so adorable about this sign. Mercury and Mars conjunct your ascendant makes perfect sense as well. IP: Logged |

You do kind of look like a Capricorn rising as well, but the vibe of your pictures is WAY more Sag. Sparkly and fun. Capricorn is the polar opposite. ;o)IP: Logged |

Your face does have the length of a typical Sag rising and the bright eyes, but that can be attributed to the other factors in Sag. I also prefer to see people's faces from ages 10-25 for better certainty and the actual birth data for a quick check. Otherwise its just guesswork.This is because with a possible Asc in Scorpio the Sag planets would be in the first house, transfering a good deal of your personality/physicality to Sag generally.------------------ World Class Rectification Specialist http://kannonmcafee.wordpress.com/ IP: Logged |

aww you are soo pretty before i even scorolled down i thougt sag and then cap, maybe your sag but near the cusp? anyway i'm surprised i actually got it right. My brothers estimated time is so that he is either scorp, sag or cap rising and after seeing some sag cap risings recently i'm starting to think he might be a scorp rising. He also has a pisces moon. Anyway you are gorgeous and have such a warm vibe. Thats deff. a sag rising thing! Want to take a stab at my rising sign?

Thank you all for the nice comments & help I looked into the ascendent links, and agree look more like a Sag than a Capricorn. My wondering about my Asc is mostly that when I first meet people, I'm shy and reserved. Once I get to know someone, then my Sag self comes out in full force. Although I am initially reserved, my outward appearance is much more casual than what I associate as Capricorn. I like feeling comfortable and am not putting major effort to appear flawless and put together at all times. Kannon, do you have a chart rectification website? I'm curious, is the asc more visible in childhood vs adulthood? Violet, my guess would be Virgo or Libra rising with a Scorpio Moon. Your eyes are very pretty and vibrant, the gaze reminds me of my Scorpio cousin. The fine nose makes me think of Libra dignity, but you also remind me of Virgo. IP: Logged |
