Ascendant- the most individual point of the entire horoscope. This is the point on the ecliptic that rises in the eastern sky at the time of birth. Since the earth rotates, each point on the earth’s surface passes through the entire zodiac circle in a day, so that the ascendant is in each sign of the circle every day. Its position in a certain place depends on the time of birth. It symbolizes the “second of the world” at the moment of birth with all its planetary positions that determine the path of life that the newborn embarks on.

For this reason, a person is only born under sign of Taurus when it ascendant- but not Sun! - is in the sign of Taurus of the zodiac circle.

firmament in daily rotation Almost a whole degree passes every 4 minutes, but due to the inclination of the ecliptic, the ascending signs of the circle occur differently. Distinguish fast and slow rising signs. TO Fast ascending signs include Capricorn to Gemini, To slowly ascending - from Cancer to Sagittarius. In the northern hemisphere, slow-rising signs on the ascendant are more common than fast-rising signs.

The significance of the influence of the ascendant will be easier to understand if we agree to consider that at this point all influence begins. Ascendant gives information about how a person as a whole reacts to all stimuli of the external world and how his continuous dispute with the influences of this world manifests itself. Surrounding a person the world is endowed with certain properties, and a person has to reckon with everything that happens in the world during his life and, to one degree or another, adapt.

A person’s attitude towards the world around him can be either more active or passive, and sometimes he is in a position of rest. The property of being constantly ready to react is determined exclusively by the ascendant: it influences more powerfully than all the constellations, and determines the sum of all influences perceived by a person.

From the moment of his birth, a person is formed and changed under the influence environment , and its physical, mental and spiritual functions are constantly changing. How these changes occur, as well as the effectiveness of the modes of adaptation, the overall magnitude of the ability to respond and perhaps sort out the impact - all this is determined by the point ascendant.

Not a single person on earth is born with a ready-made character. Transmitted by inheritance and congenital are only various settings that can be developed. Whether they actually develop depends on life conditions.

Let us illustrate this statement. Let's say a man goes to a gardener and buys from him rose bush a certain variety. The gardener says that when the bush blooms, the flowers will be yellow. If we draw an analogy with a person, then we're talking about about predetermination, that is, the sum of innate attitudes. Nothing can be changed here, and having bought a certain variety of rose, one must expect a certain development. The basis for development is, first of all, the sum of hereditary factors.

Now the bush gets from the gardener to the new owner, he plants it in his garden so that it grows and develops. The time and place are now determined by the new owner of the bush, and now it depends on his experience and his knowledge of the conditions for the development of roses whether the new habitat is suitable for this plant or not.

We clearly understand that the plant cannot influence the moment of planting in a new place. Likewise, a person born in a certain place and at a certain time cannot take part in determining this moment. When he is born, he comes into contact with a certain environment and in it - and only in it - he has to develop. It is this moment of birth, of appearance in a new living environment, that shows ascendant and along with it a horoscope built on its basis.

The rose from the example above can now develop. If she is placed on good location where there is enough light, not damp and not dry, it will grow and bloom well. According to its location, the bush will use as much of the environment as it can provide.

This example shows that Three components matter during development:

  1. The sum of hereditary installations.
  2. The moment at which one is born with these hereditary attitudes.
  3. The environment in which these attitudes develop over the course of life.

In astrological terminology, we can formulate it like this:

  1. What matters is innate plasmatic predetermination (innate attitudes).
  2. Determined by the ascendant, the sum of the possibilities of reaction to the world And
  3. Life itself, dependent on the eternal variability of the aspects of the planets and other celestial influences, due to which great diversity arises.

Naturally, not all life events and influences have a noticeable impact. The human senses perceive all possible stimuli, but only partially consciously, while most of all information is not registered by thoughts or feelings and leaves no trace. And yet, throughout life, a unity of functions of body, soul and spirit arises, which reacts in a very definite and typical way to the environment and - from the point of view of astrology - is determined by the ascendant.

We could consider these provisions further, but this would lead too far, since it again turns out that only with the help of astrological practice can an accurate assessment of the ascendant be developed. We talk in detail about the meaning of the ascendant in individual signs of the transdiacal circle within zodiacal synthesis.

But first you need to deeply understand ascendant meaning. It is extremely difficult to explain this concept to a non-astrologer. The reason for this amazing fact that most people do not have the slightest idea of ​​what character actually is and how it is formed. From this ignorance arise the difficulties that arise everywhere in the education of young people. On the one hand, educators cannot or do not want to recognize the significance of hereditary or innate attitudes, on the other hand, they overestimate the influence of the environment. And this - and here comes a surprising conclusion - is determined politically.

There are political trends that consider as their main position that a person is formed solely as a result of his life in society, that the most favorable social relations give the most positive development of character. Hereditary - innate - abilities supposedly do not play any role, and only the correct “social order” is able to guarantee a person’s positive development and happiness.

On the other hand, experience proves that under the most favorable conditions of development, very often there is no good result, since negative attitudes are dominant. Conversely, even in an absolutely bad environment, in the presence of strong and favorable attitudes, the development of an outstanding personality can occur.

Nowadays, astrology is not universally recognized, although it can indicate the possibilities of personality development and show how one can achieve success or failure through the development of character. It can tell you which people are predisposed from birth to success in life, that is, they have the attitude to rise above others and succeed in life. In countries where the policy is for all citizens to be as similar as possible to each other (equalization), where everything is decided by the state, and where everyone, within social structure performs the functions prescribed to him by the state, it is impossible to take into account the basics of astrology, including the predestination of the ascendant.

When calculating the influence of the sign of the zodiac circle, the decisive factor is which decade the ascending degree belongs to. The first decade (from 0 to 10 degrees) is called cardinal, the second - constant, the third - adapting.

If the ascendant falls on first decade, then we state that the properties of the sign are always overly emphasized.

In the second decade, the properties appear moderately.

In the third, their weakening is already noticeable.

For example: 1st decade: “double” Virgo; 2nd decade: typical Virgo; 3rd decade: adaptable Virgo.

If there is a planet close to the ascendant at a distance of 5 degrees before or after, then it overlaps or modifies the indications of the ascendant sign. In addition, the indicators of the ascendant are also influenced by aspects to it.

Planet, ruler of the ascendant, is that very “lucky star”. Which most people have no idea about. How exactly this will manifest itself in a person’s life will be determined by the position of the ruler in the sign, house and its aspects. All this either strengthens or weakens the manager. All aspects of symbolic directions, secondary progressions, transits related to the ascendant play an important role in a person’s life.

Medium Goals

A point on the ecliptic, which reaches its highest position in the sky in the daily rotation (that is, the highest culmination) at the moment of birth, astrologers call midheaven. In the classification of houses, this point means the highest point of the 10th house.

When passing at 12 noon MC coincides with the position of the Sun. After ascendant This is the second most important point in the horoscope, and it is unlikely that two individuals will have the same position of the stars, although they were born in the same place and at the same time. Reason - MC changes by one degree within 4 minutes.

From point of view psychology MC stands for " self-awareness" This refers to the consciousness of one’s own “I” - the transition of general consciousness into the individual consciousness of the personal “I”. “I” (ego) represents the spiritual center of the entire personality and, with certain reservations, can be considered as its highest layer and control authority. A person can express himself through feelings, desires and aspirations, but all conscious actions are always controlled by the “I”.

Consciousness of one's own "I" tied to the development of the individual. In a child who only feels satiety, pain, joy, we cannot yet talk about the consciousness of his own “I”. The child himself initially talks about himself in the third person. At the first “stubborn age” (3-4 years), decisive transformations occur. The self, which previously only recorded events without realizing itself, becomes the subject of experience. At the same time, the symbolic unity of the child and the world is resolved: the first separation of “I” from “not I” occurs. By “I” - conscious aspirations, we must understand aspirations directed by the “I” to achieve certain goals in life. For this reason, it is necessary to apply various attitudes and characteristics to help these aspirations move towards success.

Feelings of desire or reluctance are necessary to impart an emotional driving force to the individual, the will must also take part in this, there must be a certain attitude towards other people.

The stronger connection of the MC with other points of the horoscope, the more the individual stands out from the general mass. A prerequisite for correct interpretation here is the correct definition and data of the time of birth.

The MC in individual sectors of the zodiac circle (divided into decades, like the ascendant) is considered within the framework of astrological synthesis.

MC gives fundamental ideas about a person’s original goal, that is, about his calling, which should not be confused with his profession, since this does not always coincide.

MC expresses the goal that everyone wants to fulfill in the world around him, his individual aspiration, for which he lives.

In essence, the MC reflects a passionate desire for the fulfillment of which a person feels born.

You quarrel with people, and their desires and needs do not agree with your feelings, and it is not easy for you to decide what is better to do - please yourself or listen to other people's advice and persuasion.
