Capricorn and Gemini rising: its meaning

Capricorn and Gemini Ascendant in your horoscope

You seem to be split between two contradictory tendencies. Owing to your Gemini Ascendant, you come across as a fluttering and lively person, and it is difficult to imagine that your Capricorn Sun endows you with taciturnity, circumspection, long-term vision, and intuition.

These Capricorn features clash with Gemini's inclination for ephemeral things and its propensity to live in the present instant. As a result, you tend to keep your emotions to yourself and react in a detached and intellectual way. Capricorn's scathing remarks and Gemini's refined casualness intrigue your interlocutors or on the contrary, scare them away.

Your sociable, spruce, curious, and communicative outward appearance reflects neither the solitary nature of your inner self, nor the quest for profundity which are the marks of your Capricorn Sun. Indeed, its Earth looks like the snowy mountainous peaks which are conducive to meditation, whereas Gemini's Air evokes the mocking winds of spring rustling through the foliage.

It is up to you to make the most of Capricorn's need for calm and discipline and Gemini's all-out sociability.

The Ascendant and the Sun in sign

If you have a doubt about your sign or your Ascendant, you can get it immediately.

The rising sign, i.e. the sign which crosses the eastern horizon at the moment of birth, is a major element of the natal chart because it describes our general behaviour and our outward appearance and indicates how people perceive us when they meet us for the first time.

It is important to grasp the difference between the Ascendant sign - the rising sign - and the Sun sign, i.e., the sign in which the Sun is posited at the moment of birth. Unlike the Ascendant, the Sun sign refers to the deepest part of us which is more genuine but less accessible because it is meant for our friends and relatives only.

Your Sun sign is Capricorn, which means that it is only when people know you well that your Capricorn traits become obvious. They may be different from your outward appearance, which is influenced by your Ascendant sign.

Your Ascendant sign is Gemini, which means that, at first glance, people feel the influence of Gemini on your outward appearance It may be different from your inner self, which defined by your Sun sign.
