how capricorn rising shows up
you come across as composed, serious and older than your years, especially when you're young. people trust you fast and often hand you responsibility. you start things with a clear goal and a long view. the mask can look cold, but it softens over time — and it makes you someone people can lean on.
what the rising sign is
the rising sign, or ascendant, is the sign that was coming up on the eastern horizon the moment you were born. it shapes first impressions, your way of starting things and how you move through a room — the front door of your chart. it changes about every two hours, so you need your exact birth time and place to know yours.
