What You Lookin' At? Mars and your Ascendant Sign

Key Info about Ascendants

Your rising sign is determined by the time you were born.  

It represents how you present yourSelf.

If there is a square between your AC and your Moon Sign, you have a difficult time presenting yourSelf.  

If there is a square between you AC and your Sun Sign, you have a difficult time presenting yourSelf in relation to your general character. 

If your parents were in harmony during your conception, your Sun, Moon, and AC will aspect each other well...

Salaam family,
    Today, we are talking about the Rising Sign.  Why?  Because it is Tuesday, which is ruled by Mars.  The Rising Sign or the AC (ascendant) is the first house of the astrology wheel.  The first house is home of the first sign, Aries.  Thus, our AC is strong on this day.

   The first house is all about Self- just like that Aries you know.  It's about personality, looks, and ego.  Not the Leo ego, where you are the leader, and thus, always conscious of what you do/say.  It's that Aries ego, which is all about the raw, instinctual Self.  It is actually the ID of Freud's Structural Model of the Psyche.  The first house is like Aries- it represents assertion, defense, physical appearance, and movement.  It also represents how you present yourSelf.   It is also used to determine your popularity (in conjunction with the 10th house).  

Example- 
**Beyonce Knowles is a Leo rising.  She may seem shy, but truthfully, the song "Ego" is really about her. LOL.  She presents her Self as a person that is an authority and demands recognition.  Interestingly, her Mars sits on the AC line (the line between 12 and 1) on the 1st House side.  Her popularity comes from physical expression- that is her dancing.  She is well known for her movements (although ppl know she can sing; she draws ppl in with her dance).  Her movements are bold and often exaggerated. 


Knowing your AC also gives you insight into the rest of your chart b/c it sets the tone for every other aspect of your life.  If Leo is in your first house, then Virgo is in your 2nd, Libra in your 3rd, etc...

After you discover your AC, look at your 12th House- this will tell you your secret enemies and those things about your Self that you don't notice, but others can see clearly.
