How to calculate your ascendant

Why ? Because the degree to which the ascendant stands is the point where the sun rises at the moment of birth and in relation to your place of birth. For example, if you were born at noon, the sun is in the middle of the sky.
Time is important to calculate your ascendancy ...
If you are born in metropolitan France or in European countries without time difference with France, you can use tables that indicate the position of the sunrise; attention depending on the year, you must reranche 1h or 2h at the indicated time, to respect the solar time.
Since 1976, France has introduced summer time, if your date of birth coincides with daylight saving time, you must subtract 2 hours from your time of birth.
The ascendant and the place of birth
The place of birth is important for the calculation of the ascendant. But that does not require the same precision as for the time.
If you were born in the Southern Hemisphere, your ascendant corresponds roughly to the sign opposite the ascendant, that is, to the descending sign. However, only the establishment of your chart can truly determine your rising sign.
Calculating the ascendency on the Internet
Several sites offer you the calculation of the ascendant automatically ... Some offer to take into account daylight saving time, others calculate your ascendant directly without you knowing what is taken into account in the calculation. The best is therefore to establish your horoscope directly. You can also do this calculation with softwareastrology.
In all cases, to know precisely the time of your birth, you can ask to your town hall of birth an extract of birth certificate on which your precise time of birth appears.
