    Frequently asked questions

    What is a rising sign?▾

    Your rising sign, or ascendant, is the zodiac sign rising on the eastern horizon at the moment and place of your birth. It is said to shape your first impression.

    Why do I need an exact birth time?▾

    The ascendant moves about one degree every four minutes and changes sign roughly every two hours, so even a small time error can change it.

    My city is not in the list. What do I do?▾

    Pick the nearest big city in the same time zone, or switch to Coordinates and enter your latitude, longitude and UTC offset.

    Does it handle daylight saving time?▾

    Yes. City time zones use your browser's historical time zone data, including past daylight-saving rules.

    Is the rising sign scientific?▾

    The astronomy is real, but astrology's meaning is not scientifically proven. It's for fun.
