What is the ascending node in astrology4/10/2024 The ascendant is our physical form, identity/characteristics we strongly identify with, parts of our personality that are right up front for all to see, how we present ourselves to the world, our relationship with ourselves, and finally, the way that our identity has been shaped by others. Psychologically, it’s can be viewed as what others have seen in or projected onto us from the moment we were born, and over time it became a core part of our identity because we’ve seen how it can keep us safe. It’s the filter that everything else in the chart passes through before it enters the external world. It either begins or is contained within the 1st house, depending on house system, and it represents our first breath, our very first experience of the world, the moment we left someone else’s body and began to experience the world through our own. The ascendant, AC, or rising sign, is the sign that was literally rising in the sky from the eastern horizon at the time of a person’s birth. They divide the chart into four quadrants, and represent four key areas of all of our lives: who we are, our relationships, what we do out in the world, and where we’re from. The 4 angles in a chart are the ascendant, descendant, midheaven, and IC.
