Understanding Your Ascendant
Your Rising Sign (or Ascendant) is the zodiac sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the moment of your birth. It represents your social personality, first impressions, and the lens through which you view the world. While your Sun Sign is your core self, your Rising Sign is the mask you wear for others.
