An ascendant sign, also known as the rising sign, is a zodiac sign that is rising above the horizon at the exact moment of a person's birth. In astrology, the ascendant sign is considered to be just as important as the sun sign, as it represents a person's persona, or the image they project to the world. It is calculated based on the person's birth date, time, and location.

The ascendant sign can influence a person's physical appearance, as well as their personality traits and behavior. For example, a person with an Aries ascendant may appear confident and assertive, while a person with a Pisces ascendant may appear more gentle and sensitive. Understanding your ascendant sign can provide insight into how others perceive you and how you interact with the world around you.
