Which is why I've never trusted or agreed with people trying to determine ascendants based on pictures. Most of the times I've seen people play guessing games about it, they actually got the ascendants wrong.

So yes OP its absolutely possible that you aren't a Leo rising.

Another thing is that the ascendant is just a mask, so it always perplexes me when people who have no actual planets in a certain sign (or the ruler of the sign on an angle) claim that sign because its their ascendant sign.

Im surprised that people do it with Leo particularly but its probably because Leo is trendy right now. when it isn't in style to try and claim Leo anymore, everyone with a Leo rising sign will be minimizing it and downplaying it LOL and insulting us Leo suns and moons, again .

You have the hairstyle of a typical leo, (look like a lion). Google Jennifer Lawrence's hair.

Hopefully, your hair isn't frizzy and curly.

Is your rising on a cusp?

judging from your picture it seems like you arent using that leo power as much as you should.
i sense a softness ...like a quiet lion type.. not too aggressive but taking action only when needed as opposed to just because.

ASC is just a mask in the regard that we look through it onto the world; it`s not so much a mask but your glasses which shape how (and in what areas) you experience the planets in signs / the world.
It`s actually much more individual than the Venus or Mars-sign.

It is what the world looked like to you when you were opening up your eyes for the first time (metaphorically speaking), your environment and surrounding, how people reacted to you being part of their world suddenly, and that of course shaped your expectations and how you approach the outer world yourself.

THAT is what the ASC is, not a mask that you can put on and put off again. If it is a mask, it is one glued to you that you can never put off.

Your facial outline appears rectangular to me in the pic you posted up top. That is consistent with fixity dominating related to the Asc. (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aqua)

Here's something for comparison and description:

4:00 on the dot is not likely to give you an accurate Asc, but I think you probably have the right sign. It generally requires a bit of tweaking, which can be done by looking at the possible aspects to the Asc and at transits over time.

With Pluto square Asc, there may be an increased intensity, increased tendency to remain somewhat closed off, accumulating personal power privately, improving yourself, rather than 'showing off' what you've already got.

You will also want to look in the declinations, which can be seen by clicking on the free pdf link right above your chart image at astro.com ... shows other possible planet alignments with Asc that could give a fuller story.

Leo Suns and Leo Moons ROCK too!

I have Venus conjunct mars in Leo by 1 degree as well. It's in the 1st house. When peasant tops and skirts were trendy years ago, I avoided it like the Black Plague. I wasn't going to dress like a peasant lol

I am pretty good at it in real life. It's a bit harder with a photo, but I can see it on video, like watching a movie. I guess I see the mannerisms too.

I recently guessed rising signs on three people without knowing their DOB or sun sign. We then went on astro.com (on a mobile phone in a bar lol) and put in the data to find that I was accurate on all three people.

However, on another person, she kept playing with her long hair in conversation. I thought maybe she must be a Leo rising, but it was a Leo moon instead. So I am not *always* right.

When it comes to Leos specifically, I can spot Leo energy very easily because of my own Leo rising.

And I am instantly repelled by Pisces sun people even before I know they are a Pisces. They are my opposite since I have a Virgo sun, maybe that's what it is.
