Ascendant & Moon Sign Calculator
Discover your Sun, Moon, and Ascendant (Rising) signs. While your Sun sign represents your core personality, your Moon sign reveals your emotional inner world, and your Ascendant sign dictates how you present yourself to the world and your initial reactions.
Important Note: Calculating Moon and Ascendant signs accurately requires precise astronomical data (ephemeris) and complex algorithms based on your exact birth time and location. This calculator provides an accurate Sun sign and highly simplified, illustrative approximations for the Moon and Ascendant signs due to the limitations of client-side JavaScript without external data or APIs. For precise astrological charts, please consult a professional astrologer or specialized software.

In astrology, your birth chart is a snapshot of the sky at the exact moment and location of your birth. It's a complex map, but three key placements form the foundation of your personality:
The Sun Sign: Your Core Identity
Your Sun sign is the most commonly known astrological placement, determined by the position of the Sun at your birth. It represents your fundamental self, your ego, conscious mind, and the core essence of who you are. It describes your basic personality traits, your strengths, and your general approach to life. For example, a Leo Sun is often seen as confident and dramatic, while a Virgo Sun is typically analytical and practical.
The Moon Sign: Your Emotional World
Your Moon sign reveals your inner emotional landscape, your instincts, habits, and how you react to the world on an unconscious level. It governs your feelings, your needs for security, and how you nurture yourself and others. It's often considered your "private" self, the part of you that comes out when you're comfortable and safe. A Cancer Moon, for instance, might be deeply nurturing and sensitive, while an Aquarius Moon could be more detached and intellectual in their emotional responses.
The Ascendant (Rising Sign): Your Outer Persona
Your Ascendant, or Rising sign, is the zodiac sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the precise moment of your birth. It dictates your outward personality, your first impressions, your physical appearance, and how you initiate things. It's the "mask" you wear in public and influences your immediate reactions to new people and situations. Someone with a Gemini Ascendant might appear curious and communicative, while a Capricorn Ascendant might come across as serious and reserved.
Together, these three signs offer a profound insight into your unique astrological blueprint, providing a more nuanced understanding of your personality than just your Sun sign alone.
