Let’s jump back into learning about the birth chart. To start I would love to introduce the power trio. To me, a great first step is to get familiar with your own power trio. This threesome (um trio…) consists of the SUN, the MOON and the Ascendant (also known as the Rising Sign).
Breakdown:
Core or “Default” self = SUN sign
Emotional self = MOON sign
Outward self or “the Costume you wear” = ASCENDANT/ RISING sign
The Sun Sign in Astrology
The Sun represents the self, it’s the main expression we choose. Further information can be found according to the sign you are born into, further more the placement of the Sun in the chart. In the chart the Sun represents: Will, core personality, drive, male relationships in the female chart, how the personality operates, inner strength.
The Moon Sign in Astrology
The Moon represents the “true” inner self. Further information can be found according the individual’s Moon sign (based on birth data) and Moon placement in the chart. In the birth chart the moon represents: Subconscious self, feelings, femininity, memory, security, receptivity, habits and patterns, where emotion conquers reason.
The Ascendant/Rising Sign in Astrology
Located on the cusp of the 1st house in the chart the Ascendant/ Rising sign is based on our birth data. Depending on what time we are born a specific sign is on the the horizon (this is sun sign aside). Without a birth time we do not know what the ascendant is. The Ascendant clearly differentiates the differences in temperament, style, physical looks and personality of those born on the same day.
Because the ASC is located only on the 1st house cusp we will break this down by sign. ASC = Ascendant
Ps… good time to practice drawing those symbols!!!
Aries ASC: Outgoing, quick, impulsive. combative, headstrong
Taurus ASC: Strong, stable, quiet, possessive, resourceful

Now have some fun! What is your power trio? Do you play well with each other or clash? How do you feel their influence?
