You've almost got it
you just have a little block
The Ascendant moves clockwise (backwards)

If your Ascendant is Pisces
then your 2nd house is Aries
Taurus/3rd etc.
That 2nd house Aries has got to move up first to the Ascendant putting Pisces in the 12th house.
When Taurus goes on the Ascendant, Aries will move in to the 12th house and Pisces will have moved to the 11th etc.

oops had to fix that

It's the houses
For the Ascendant signs to go in order Aries-Pisces
the houses have to travel backwards (clockwise)

look at your natal chart
follow the degrees around and see how the houses change.

I understand you when you say backwards
its when you say clockwise that I get confused.
the definition of clockwise is forward i.e to the right from 12 o clock to 3 o clock

for the AC to move backwards it has to move counter clockwise or left

edit
I just looked it up on the internet and it says that the AC moves counter clockwise

edit to add:

the Ascendant Signs move counter-clockwise (in order to go Aries-Pisces)
The houses move clockwise. (12-1)

Lalalinda, yes, planets move counter-clockwise through the SIGNS, but the rotation of the Earth (ergo Ascendant) through the signs moves much faster than any planet moves through the signs, causing the planets to move backwards (clockwise) through the Houses while moving forward (counter-clockwise) through the Signs.

Was this your whole point from the start? I think most of us here already know this. These are basic mechanics. But my entire question isn't about mechanics, it is about interpretation.

Still no one can help answer my original topic regarding interpretation?

Any website where I can go to discuss serious astrological concepts?

All I see on this website is the same old astrological fundamentals that most of us already know, and responses that are irrelevant to my questions.

You would be surprised at how many people who do not know this. They go straight to interpretation and skip all of this.
Which is why interpretating a planet on the 5/6 cusp and including the 6th house in interpretation is wrong.

From the Planets view only
it looks like it's going into the 6th. (if you freeze the wheel)

I don't know how else to explain it
