I know my AL is in Libra but is there anyways I can find out the exact degree?

I wonder if it conjuncts sidereal pluto in libra? I know the navamsa lagna has a specific degree.

Whats your experience with the AL?

Your AL is in Libra?

What's your lagna? Are you using the north indian format or the south indian one?

When you are calculating the AL have you taken the exceptions to the rule in consideration?

For instant I have A7 & A2 on the AL it gives me charisma and people often think I'm wealthy or that my parents are rich, while I'm NOT AT ALL.

What are your arudha and your AL padas?

My AL is Libra

It's not only how people see you in the maya world, according to some vedic astrologers ( sorry i don't have a reference to give you, am talking from memory) the arudha lagna also is a good significator of beauty,fame associated with beauty,status associated with beauty, fame and money. It's what society judges as beauty.

The 11th and 12th houses from the AL show financial gains, sudden rise to fame and money that is reflected by the person in society.

For instance the 11th and 12th house in the fixed ascendant chart will indicate financial gains and expenditure that the person will likely have, the 11th and 12th houses from the AL will indicate how society view that person's financial status and expenditure. Someone might be worried about how he/she is buying in a supermarket for instance but people are seeing another picture there, they might be in awe like ''wow, did you see how much stuff they had in their cart?"

The 5th house shows intelligence,the 5th house from the AL shows how intelligent people see you.

HOWEVER, this is NOT the only purpose to your AL. AL as well as your fixed lagna is affected by transits,dasas,mahadasas, the whole shift of planets. The 3rd house from your AL shows death. That is something that astrologers look at particularly when they are predicting the longevity of a person,am not sure how accurate the method is.

My dad has AL in libra conjunct moon and neptune exact, He's always been popular.
People literally go out there way to help him.

What is the Arudha Lagna afterall?

They say it's the perception of the self by the maya world. For instance you are going to the university everyday, you interact with people from the University campus almost everyday..is that small world your maya world?? It's more like your reality world, the reality that you face everyday of your life.Right?..I don't know, I feel it's both yes and no...now if we extend this world to people that don't know you, that you don't interact on a daily basis, that world is not fully known to you neither do they know you. Our perception of someone will likely change in the course of further interaction with the individual. someone we might have thought as a friendly person initially may be infact a very unfriendly someone..do you get what I mean? but we would still be in the maya world because the perception of one person doesn't change our society at large will view the person..

There are 3 levels of perceptible reality: the one that we know of ourselves, the atma knows, the level of reality that people in the material world perceive of us, then the third reality is the reality that lives in our heads, our perception of the self and I feel the reality that the material world sees us is a complicated one indeed that needs to be broken down into sublevels!!

Take the principle of how we find out the Arudha lagna: Basically it is the reflection of the graha that represents our lagna, our fixed ascendant. That's all!

You are getting interviewed for a job, you get the job basically because the bosses see as the most capable candidate out of the lot, not because you have better results. They made a decision on how they see you.It was what was distinctly visible to them, what impression you gave them.

The Arudha Lagna is MUCH more than what we perceive it to be lol. Even our understanding and perception of it is misty!

AL in libra conjuncts Pluto too.
Sun moon mercury and venus in the 8th house from AL
Is the AL lord important too?
Perhaps this is why people mistake me for a scorpio sometimes?

I have rahu 3rd house from AL. So I guess I'll die around a strong rahu transit perhaps, Rahu return? I should be in Rahu maha dasha after mars. Should be interesting, I'll be around 30's than I think maybe older.

Of course the AL lord is important. With the regards to financial status, are you familiar with the AShtavarga system?

What is your moon nakshatra?

What is your degree to the lagna ascendant?
