🌞Sun, Moon and Ascendant: the trio that speaks about you 🫶
I'll explain their importance to you..
Dear astro lover,
How are you?
Since the skies are calm these days 🪐, I thought it would be the perfect time to dive deeper into the Sun, the Moon, and the Rising sign — the three foundational pillars of your birth chart.
Together, they form the beating heart 🩷 of your identity.
☀️ Sun: your active, conscious, masculine self → I AM
🌙 Moon: your emotional, receptive, feminine self → I FEEL
⬆️ Rising: the energetic field that surrounds you → I SHOW MYSELF
Why is it so important to recognize them?
🌓 Because the Sun and Moon are like your inner Yin and Yang —
they each need space to express themselves in their own unique way.
Understanding their strengths helps you know how and when to activate each one.
Together, they form your CENTER — but they speak very different languages:
one is your TO BE, the other one is your TO FEEL.
Knowing in which zodiac signs and houses they are located in your chart helps you:
make space for both (without suppressing either one)
know when to activate whom
embrace their beauty, rather than feeling stuck in conflict
And the Rising sign?
I see it as a filter that surrounds your Sun and Moon.
🌟 First, you discover WHO YOU ARE (Sun & Moon), and then you explore HOW TO EXPRESS THAT outwardly — through your Rising.
I imagine it like a 🃏 playing card:
you pull the Rising out when you’re in a new situation, when you need to observe before fully revealing yourself.
🌞 Then, when you feel safe — or it makes sense — that’s when you let your Sun and Moon shine.
Remembering though that you are NOT your Rising.
Making choices or shaping your life based solely on that energy can lead to dissatisfaction.
The Rising is not a planet. It’s a point on the horizon at the time of your birth = it doesn’t represent a core part of you.
It’s more like a mask or energetic filter 🎭 between your inner self and the world.
Does this make sense?
Does it help you understand yourself better?
And beyond Sun, Moon and Rising, there are three more key personal planets 🪐 that complete the full picture of your personality:
✨ Mercury – how you use your voice and your mind → I COMMUNICATE
✨ Venus – your passions and creative expression → I LOVE
✨ Mars – how you take action and show courage → I ACT
Together, these six form your unique identity — your energetic signature.
🪬 And then, there are the karmic aspects:
✨ Lilith → I bring light to my wild femininity
✨ Chiron → I heal my inner child
✨ Lunar Nodes → To feel complete, my soul moves toward…
These are your wounds — and when healed, they become your greatest gifts.
🦄 Then we consider the social planets, which show how you move within society:
✨ Jupiter → your way of opening into what’s unfamiliar → I EXPAND
✨ Saturn → what you need to build to feel proud of yourself → I BUILD
📻 And at the end there are the generational planets —
those shared by everyone born in your same decade.
These are very interesting to understand society on a collective level:
they help explain why politics in the '70s felt a certain way, or why a specific kind of music shaped the '80s, etc.
✨ Uranus brings innovation and collective change
✨ Neptune symbolizes the spiritual lens of an era
✨ Pluto represents deep inner transformation
Fascinating, right?
