What Is a Horoscope and How Does It Work?

Each day's horoscope is crafted by comparing the current positions of the planets with your personal birth chart. But how do you make sense of it all? Most people start with their sun sign horoscope, which highlights your core personality and ego. For a more detailed view, though, astrologers recommend also checking out your rising sign (ascendant) horoscope.

Sun Sign vs Rising Sign Horoscope: Which Should You Read?

While your sun sign shows how planetary movements affect you personally, your rising sign provides a clearer picture of how those movements impact different areas of your life. Looking at your rising sign horoscope reveals how the planets are moving through the houses of your birth chart. This approach offers a more detailed understanding of how each planetary transit influences various aspects of your life and uncovers broader themes.

How to Read Your Horoscope For Your Rising Sign

The houses in your birth chart are based on your ascendant, so horoscopes for your rising sign tend to be more accurate than those for your sun sign. By examining your rising sign horoscope, you'll see which house any astrological transit lights up in your chart, helping you anticipate where to expect major life lessons and insights. For example, if you're tracking the full moon in Taurus, you'd check your birth chart to determine which house Taurus rules. Whether it's your relationships (seventh house), family (fourth house), or career (tenth house), this gives you a better idea of how any transit in astrology will affect you.

To get the complete celestial experience, astrologers recommend reading both your sun and rising sign horoscopes to see how the stars shape your world.
