What's Your Sign

Hello November, who knew you'll come by so fast. 2 more months and we'll all be able to wave goodbye to the turbulent 2020. The future seems rather uncertain for now, but one can always hope for better times. In times of crisis, it's good to hold on to that little hope, and what better way to uplift your spirit than delving more into your signs, so you'll be more aware of your strengths and weaknesses, or perhaps discover some hidden talents that you have.

If you're a sceptic you'll probably scoff at the  topic of astrology. It seems like a trivial topic, just like that monthly horoscope that you swiftly read to pass your time. However there is more to astrology than predicting the future, and since 2020 is the best year for self reflection, let's learn more about our signs, and see if any of these can give you an idea on your personal traits.

Before we delve further, here's a link to a birth chart calculator. Just type in your time, place and date of birth on this link : https://astro.cafeastrology.com/natal.php

Once you get your result, just scroll down till you get a header that shows like these, this is mine btw. Ascendant is further down the page, which is under the main topic Houses. For now, you'll only need to know these 3 because that's what we need in order to learn more about our personality. Read over the descriptions and find out if there's any truth to that.

Sun Sign

Widely known by everyone and probably the only sign that we identified with as this is the one that we usually search for in a horoscope. Sun sign is your core at a basic level. It's your ego and will. It's your highest expression of self. It is also what motivates you towards success.

Moon Sign

Moon sign on the other hand relates more towards your private, emotional parts of your personality. It's your deeper soul, one that you keep hidden and one that drives your emotional reactions.

Ascendant or Rising Sign

Your surface-level personality is determined by ascendent or your Rising sign. It's your social personality. It's a manifestation of both your inner and outer world. 

Knowing your Rising sign will help you better understand why people think of you in a way as this is the first impression that you give to others. As people get to know you, they'll learn more about the rest of you.
