Capricorn and Libra rising: its meaning

Capricorn and Libra Ascendant in your horoscope

An iron fist in a velvet glove. This expression could fit you perfectly well! Indeed, Capricorn's sternness is in sharp contrast with Libra's ethereal charm. Nevertheless, these signs also have a few features in common. They are ruled by Saturn, the god of Time, they are endowed with patience and the sense of moderation, and they have the ability to control themselves in all circumstances, which may give them a detached and impersonal appearance, particularly as far as Capricorn is concerned.

Libra is ruled by Venus and Saturn. Their combined influences add to your personality a touch of spontaneous and cheerful sociability, and blend the sense of initiative in establishing contacts with the pursuit of justice and harmony.

This courteous and welcoming facade conceals your inner self which is shaped by the Sun in Capricorn. When people get to know you better, they notice your taste for solitude and intellectual abstractions, and they understand that you are impervious to the trends of the time, as well as to all external influences.

It is not surprising that you feel torn between your Ascendant's feverish concern to please everyone and Capricorn's typical aloofness. All you have to do is smartly merge your ambitions and your quest for profundity with your love of life's pleasures and easy relationships...

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.
