The Ascendant and Midheaven
Ascendant, also called the rising sign
The Ascendant is how you see yourself. But it is not just
how you see yourself, it is also how you think you should
be and what you strive to be. The placement of the
Ascendant sets up the rest of the chart and each
corresponding house describes specific areas of your life.
