I'm kind of confused about my ascendant.

The other day Savage Scorpio made a topic about an erroneous(did I spell that right lol) site, I tried that site and it said my ascendant was in Libra...now there are some sites that say my ascendant is in Virgo(25 degrees) and others say it's in Libra..

But is it actually possible to have a "cusp ascendant", in which I have little bit of virgo and a little bit of libra on my ascendant? Because this is really confusing me..I just know that all my life I have noticed many virgoan traits in myself, and also many libran traits(I also have moon in libra), but to make it short, is it possible to have an ascendant mixture of two signs, i.e "cusp ascendant"?

I'm curious about any insights you all might have
on 'cusp' placements .. 'cause i keep comming accross
them in folks charts .. but not sure what to make of them

... Thosa .. just an idea .. ask your close freinds
as to how you came accross to them .. when you first met
i.e. others first impressions .... before they got to know you

.. going along the lines of 'the ascendant be like the front
door of a house' (Liz.G.) .. is what i mean

.. their feedback may give you an indicator of your
ascendant ... and note when you first meet people ..
as to their reactions .. reflect on that ..

... i often find that the asc. and moon show thru

another idea .. do your chart without the aid of a computer
.. just make double sure you get the maths right :-)
and your sources are accurate ..
...'cause with computers .. one is totaly trusting the software
designer .. as in.. have they done their programming right? etc

If most of your first house is one sign, then yes, this sign has a greater impact on your behaviour.. like if you have most of your first house in Libra, and you get on well with Libras, then that would make sense, as their Sun would be in your first house.
Let's not get into a debate about cusps... lol.
I have a friend, and I just did his chart.... he was born on the cusp of Pisces and Aquarius, he said he wasn't sure what he was as he shared traits of each...
*which makes sense*
But when I did his chart, He wa already 8 hours into the Sun's change.. and had SIX planets ( including Ascendant) in Aquarius!!!
Naturally, he'd be quite Aquarian.
Just an example of Suns though...

Well...my first house is an interception(i.e "cusp") between Virgo & Libra..and my moon is in Libra...I act like both..and yes sun-sign cusps do exist! I'm a cancer/leo cusper, and I certainly have traits of both!

Hmm, my friends say the first time they met me, they saw me as the individual they see today, outgoing & fun-loving(libra and leo), and sometimes a workaholic, nit-picky & perfectionist(virgo)...I don't know
what I should attribute the libra stuff to, ascendant or moon??

Also, check and see which House System is being used by each resource. Placidus is the most common, but other are using depending.

By way of illustration, I'm a cusp-baby too -- my Asc is 29Leo54. Nearly all of Leo is in the 12th house, yet I'm unmistakably Leonine in the way I present my face to the world, not Virgoan, even though I have Mars in Virgo in the 1st.

You probably are "a little bit Virgo and a little bit Libra" at different times and when transiting planets tickle your natals.....
