Hmmm, dont believe so. I never treated Saggy in ASC, as my public mask.
I am Cappy, and ppl in personal describe me as one.

Well, I am not so good to explain that, but I can explain it from my position.

From outside I am Cappy, cold and reserved, my ex told me that i have "a look of a killer".
But inside me I am Saggy, thats my ASC. Explosiv, volatile, crusader, idealistic...
Also I must not to forgot my Piscies Moon (he makes me problems in life, but I learned to live with it). I am dreamy, emotional.

I think that REAL us represents our ASC and Moon, SUn represents only our outer look.

P.S.
I met for example many Cappy girls (I admire them) , but many of them are different, except one thing: "They walk like they have world under their feet, cold and proud." But it is only mask, or outside look.

Personal Images:

Ascendant = self-image, impression you make, "aura" (this one is more personal than the MC)

Descendant = not-me part of self image, thus what you project on OTHERS

IC/4th cusp = private image, your at-home face, like when you go home and kick your shoes off.

MC/Midheaven = public image, reputation

I would say the Ascendant is the mask you wear. I have Saturn in Virgo on my Ascendant and I have had people say to me smile it might never happen (a saying I despise by the way because the person saying this does not know what has happened to you that day.)but I think my Saturn probably gives this effect. I get told I have a beautiful smile and should use it more often.

With people who I can express myself comfortably with they see my kind Pisces Sun emotional Pisces Moon. They also see my fun side Jupiter in Leo and Venus in the 5th.

But when I leave the door and go out to meet new people my Saturn Mask is placed on and my quiet Virgo shows - I am analysing my environment before I will comfortably express myself. I have had a teacher describe me as having an intelligent look about me. He doesn't see my scatter brained Pisces side. I am intelligent in my own little way. I find my forgetfulness and confusion amusing sometimes. I am always joking to my partner that I don't know how he puts up with me. Only last week we were supposed to meet up and I got lost.

People perceive me as being serious and intelligent, and they also pick up on my lack of confidence which can be obvious. All this is the first impression people pick up on when they first meet me. Unless I have had a few drinks down me, than god knows what impression I make then.

I have Virgo on the ascendant and have been pretty reserved for most of my life. When you get to know me, you learn all the madness that I somehow manage to keep contained. LOL!

First impressions of me are serious, but I am a nutter underneath. He He just kidding but when people get to know me there is a whole different side to me.

I am trying to think of the first impression I had of my partner he has a Leo Ascendant with the Moon conjunct the Asc but in the 12th house. He did come across as confident. When I first met him. I was on another date set up by my family with my sister's boyfriends friend.

This other man had seen a picture of me and wanted to take me out for the night. I never really felt a connection with him but I met my partner on this night out (he was a friend of the family) and he was watching me through the night -creepy isn't he- and being very protective making sure I was being looked after. So yes he showed his emotional protective side/Moon with Leo Asc his confidence.


And his stalker side Venus Conjuct Pluto (he he just kidding I am terrible.)


Although it took me a while to recognize his feelings for me maybe this is his Moon in 12th, because I nearly finished dating him being unsure of how he felt. I have always contributed this to his Venus Square Saturn.
