The ascendant: what influence does it have on your sign?

What we call ascendant is the zodiac sign that rises in the east at the time of birth. The ascendant has an important influence, because it gives the individual his uniqueness: temperament, dispositions, appearance, self-awareness, and conditions his external behavior. It will also affect how it will be perceived by others. First of all, to calculate your ascendant, you absolutely need to know the exact time of your birth in Universal Time (GMT).

Now that you know what ascendant you are, you can try to understand how this affects the way you are and how you relate to others.
