Ascendant in Scorpio

Ascendant (shortened ASC) is basically the axis of the 1st house and is one of the three most important points of personal horoscope. It represents the most eastern point at the moment of our birth and the sign in which it appears is called »the rising sign«. If somebody, for example, is born exactly at sunrise, it means that the Sun and the Ascendant are in the same sign.

Ascendant is a very accurate point of personal horoscope and its position strongly influences all other elements of the horoscope. It is accurate, because it stays in one sign only for about two hours and makes the entire circle through the zodiac in one day. Therefore, even twins, despite born in short time intervals, can have different Ascendant position.

Ascendant represents your looks, your personality, presence, beginnings of your achievements, your individuality and way of expression – the way you dress, talk, walk, etc. It indicates the way you let or want others to see and perceive you. It also indicates your birth, it represents your body, health, in what way you start acting and tackle challenges, what your basic outlook and approach to life is. It shows your basic essence. It is similar to the Sun, but the Ascendant represents your karmic mission, the cohesive thread, the test you need to solve in this life.

It is not easy getting to know you, because you are capable of hiding your true feelings and thoughts under the surface. Although you often appear peaceful and simple, you are an extremely complex individual and in reality have a much more sensitive nature than what you show on the outside.

In everyday life you constantly practice controlling you enormous inner energy. Although you try to put up with all the challenges from your environment calmly, your fiery temperament often shows itself in tumultuous and usually aggressive outbursts of anger.

Strong will, always prepared

You have a strong will which often mercilessly leads you to your goal. You can see things at once, in whole, always looking for the core of the problem and you certainly don't fall for superficial mind tricks. Deep inside, you despise most people because of this, because almost nobody lives up to your highly set moral and also spiritual principles.

It is hard to deceive you, because for you, life is a struggle, where you always have to be prepared. You strive for perfection and because of this always find flaws in yourself and in others. This also shows in your attitude towards work. You don't do anything half-way, but always give matters your absolute attention and although you trust your intuition, you leave nothing to coincidence.

In everyday relationships you have a reserved nature, you often seem cold, but you radiate a sort of inner fire, that causes respect in people and makes them willing to listen to you. However, some people feel uneasy in your presence.

You need to learn how to control your relentless sarcasm with which you often hurt others and also learn to control your emotional outbursts.
