Rising Sign (Ascendant) Calculator

Your rising sign is the zodiac sign that was climbing over the eastern horizon at the exact moment you were born. Because it changes roughly every two hours, an accurate birth time and place are both required. Everything is computed from real astronomy in your browser.

The ascendant needs a precise time: it moves about one degree every four minutes, so even a rounded birth time can change the result. Check your birth certificate if you can.
    Or enter coordinates manually

    How this works. Your rising sign is calculated from real astronomy (the same engine used inside the Alya app), using the tropical zodiac. The ascendant depends entirely on your exact time and place of birth, so both are required. Your details are used only in your browser to compute the result. The birth place lookup sends only the city name you type to a geocoding service to find its coordinates.

    For entertainment and reflection. Astrology is a symbolic tradition, not a science. This result is grounded in real planetary positions, but its meaning is interpretive and is not medical, psychological, legal or financial advice.
