Sun, Moon and Rising: The Three Pillars of Your Personality

When you say "I'm a Libra", you're really only naming your Sun sign. But your birth chart is a snapshot of the sky, and the core of your personality rests on three points: Sun, Moon and Rising.

Sun — your core

The Sun is your basic identity, ego and life purpose — the core answer to "who am I?"

Moon — your inner world

The Moon rules your emotions, your need for security and instinctive reactions. How you feel when no one is watching lives in your Moon sign.

Rising — your outward face

The Rising (ascendant) is the face people meet first: your appearance and approach to life. Put all three together and you'll see why you're "not quite a textbook Libra". Your free mini chart reveals this trio in seconds.
