The Ascendant, from an astronomical point of view, is the value of the ecliptical geocentric longitude (aka Celestial Longitude λ) of the point of the ecliptic which is easterly on the horizon.Īscendant = arctan (y/x) = arctan(-cosA/(sinA×cosE + tanL × sinE)) However, an article on a Wikipedia site shows this formula for calculating the ascendant. That means, as far as my understanding goes, from Aeries 0° that is 176° 21′. A quick entry of my data into one of the many ascendant calculators, calculates my ascendant as Virgo 26° 21′. My first obstacle I have come across is the Rising Ascendant sign.
