What is Virgo Rising? (Ascendant)

Virgo Rising
Some of you might be already aware of what an ascendant is on your natal chart, to some of you
this might be new.
So, let me explain this in a very brief way. When you were born, everything that was happening
in the solar system influences you as a person. Most people are only familiar with their zodiac
sign (the solar sign) but aren’t aware that there’s more than just that.
That’s why some people lose their belief in Astrology because they don’t identify much with
their solar sign, and since they aren’t aware that the other planets and placements are important
as well, they become a skeptic.
So, for example, you might be a Virgo but emotionally you don’t identify yourself to Virgo, or
you’re not as organized as a Virgo.
This is just an example. That’s because when you were born there were more signs and planets
then just the solar sign and it’s possible to know all through your natal chart, which is what I like
to describe as a print screen of the sky that was taken at the exact moment you were born.
We call the Rising sign or the ascendant – the sign that was transiting through the horizon (where
the sun rises) at the exact moment, you were born.
This is the sign that will be your first “mask” it will represent your physical body. It’s how you
are seen in the world.
Virgo Rising, you are known as a very smart and intellectual person. Some people might find
you to be a bit serious but once they get to know you, you’re very funny and caring. You are
very self-critical, especially with your body, which is why you are usually surrounded by people
that help you boost your self-esteem and help you think more positively.
You are known for focusing on what is practical, and for your great desire for wanting to help
others. You disguise very well your feelings and you hate being underestimated. It is easy to spot
you in a room because you have a very organized, clean and proportionate look to you.
