Calculate your rising sign (Ascendant) for free. Your rising sign changes every two hours, so an accurate birth time is needed. Enter your birth date, time, and timezone. No sign-up required.
Your rising sign, also called your Ascendant, is the zodiac sign that was on the eastern horizon at the exact moment you were born. Unlike your Sun sign, which only depends on your birth date, the rising sign moves through the entire zodiac roughly every 24 hours, meaning it can change every two hours or so, which is why an accurate birth time and timezone matter here more than almost anywhere else in a chart. Enter your birth date, time, and timezone and this tool calculates your exact Ascendant sign and degree. Your rising sign is often described as the first impression you give and the lens through which the rest of your chart, especially your house placements, gets organized.
