My Ascendant is 4* Libra close conjunct Pluto.I understand that you should not only look at the actual AC cusp but also determine what it conjuncts, as well as any other planets in the first house, as aspects which alter the AC in terms of your image to the world in terms of your physical and personality.
Do you agree that it is also altered by Pluto at a close conjunct? I also have Uranus at 26*, along with Vesta, if you would include asteroids in the list of things which alter the AC. Would you include a those to determine the effect of the AC as well, or are they too far away?
If I do include these planets, do I take into consideration which decanate of the first house they land? For example, Pluto is in the first decanate of Libra so do I consider it the first decanate of Scorpio in its interpretation?
Would you also include planets/asteroids in close conjunct in the 12th house?
... Now, on a slightly different note... What about the progressed ascendant? How much do you think it affects your image to the world? Do you still consider what it conjuncts natally or only what it conjuncts in the progressed chart? My AC has just progressed to Scorpio this year... so have I left my Libra image behind and now I am double first decanate Scorpio, having progressed AC in Scorpio? or not because progressed it is not longer conjunct Pluto which remains in the first decanate of Libra?
